It comes from ‘Princeps Senatus’, meaning ‘First among equals’, which gave an individual the privilege of being the first to speak in the Senate and being the first name on the roster. This title was used officially by Augustus (then Octavian) because it had no royal connotations. In actuality, Augustus had auctoritas (‘authority’) far greater than that of merely a Princeps. He was an Emperor, but he did not explicitly say so, for his…

it represented the rebirth of the mentioned god. I believe Isis had more than one role. She was Mother and Guardian. She not only gave birth to her son Horus, and gave life momentarily to her brother/husband, but also she protected them both.

on to learn the process of residential construction which will build my experience for a future career. Procurement and expediting is the process of gathering materials from an external service to be used on sites by calling or emailing the company. I am currently still working on completing this task and will continue to use it until the end of my internship because this is a vital task when building homes in the residential field. During the construction of every home I accomplish this task…

Introduction Off-site construction is part of modern methods of construction (MMC) and relates to construction activities that are carried out in a high quality controlled factory environment away from the site. Subsequently, the building components fabricated in the factory, are transported to the site location in order to be assembled on-site. This leads to a greater degree of finish than in traditional piecemeal on-site construction due to elimination of on-site work and rapid site assembly.…
