Constantine embarked on a journey for his military career in which he traveled over the Roman Empire from Palestine to Britain, Spain, and Gaul.

Context: My husband and I are arguing about his yelling at our children, to go to their rooms and be quiet, when he was trying to complete a test for one of his online classes. Interaction: Last week, my husband was taking a mid-term for one of his classes and our four children were running around the house playing a game of hide and go seek. Normally, when he sits down to work on his school work, he puts on his headphones and listens to music. This helps him concentrate and stay focused in our…

I Believe in Facing Your Fears I believe in facing your fears. I have always considered myself a fairly brave individual. I can hold a snake without flinching, climb to the tops of tall buildings, and sleep with the lights off after a scary movie. Yet, there was one thing that at the ripe young age of thirteen absolutely terrified me, and that was airplanes. As a child I heard many horror stories of catastrophic plane hijackings and crashes. It scared me to think that so many things could go…

There are currently 62 numbered tombs that have been discovered in the Valley of the Kings. Not all occupants have been identified and not all have been excavated. Epigraphy, whether done as an exact copy or done photographically, has been attempted in only 25 of these tombs (see chart 1).

Moreover, almost all KV tombs have been mentioned in a larger publication dealing with of the Valley of the Kings, namely Elizabeth…

He told the stories of a great empire that served as a ground of rebirth for a crumbling Rome, rescuing it from a certain doom, in an attempt to expose one to the history of Byzantine vast enough to rival the lands of the empire during the reign of Justinian. The author…

Hatshepsut With a ruling period of over 3000 years, Egypt has seen roughly 170 pharaohs, yet there are few outside of egyptologists that can name more than two or three off the top of their head. Not many remember these kings of the east, and it is even more difficult to when their mark on their own history was erased by their successors. Hatshepsut was one of the few, and by far one of the most successful female pharaohs in ancient Egypt. She was the first of them to seize total control of…

Everyone have some sort of struggles in life. I think most of the time that we see people every day with their game faces on. Life demands us to grow and become stronger human beings. But not everyone is same. We people choose our path according to our goals in life. Those paths might be many different according to their interests, beliefs and dreams. Those paths sometimes make us outsiders in society and in our hearts. This world is filled with people yet we find ourselves being lonely. This is…

beach in a rental house. Their beach is gorgeous. We plan to stay a total of 8 days, so I need to pick some places to go while we are there. While in Florida, one cannot miss a trip to the beach. For this trip, I have chosen to go to the beach on the island of Key Biscayne. This island has a beautiful lighthouse that draws me in. Key Biscayne has natural beauty and is very low-key. One place in Miami that I have heard about that sounds like an amazing experience is Jungle Island. You can take…
