    Battle Of Thermopylae Final Claim I believe that there were 350,000 Persian foot soldiers fighting. I have based this conclusion off of Document D, which included reliable evidence relating to the water resources and the realisticness of how many soldiers could be supported. To go more in depth, although Document C also makes a point regarding the water supply; Document D informs us of the man-made reservoirs that would’ve allowed more than 250,000 men to travel along the route. With over one million soldiers, “It would be physically impossible to march that many men along the roads available...” Furthermore, the author of Document D, Rupert Matthews, has written over 200 books on history, which proves that he is more knowledgeable in that…

In order for the Persian Army to successfully conquer the Greeks, they needed the Army to stay close with the Navy. The Persians Army’s route to Athens went along the coast of the Malian Gulf.

    Since early history, the concept of conquering vast amounts of land to either establish or expand an empire has been very prominent. One of the biggest part of any empire and their success relies greatly on its military system, as it is crucial in protecting their land and keeping invaders and rebellions away.

    Thermography is a unique scanning device that measures the body surface temperature through imagery and without the dangers of radiation. The major difference between mammography and Thermography is mammograms use radiation to find masses or lumps in the breast, when thermographs assess the inflammation and vascular changes through the body’s temperature. Thermography has been around for close to 20 years, yet many women are unaware of this option when they are told to schedule for their mammograms. According to the International Academy of Clinical Thermology they said: “The procedure is based on the principle that chemical and blood vessel activity in both pre-cancerous tissue and the area surrounding a developing breast cancer is almost…
