Cute Maltese dog watching YouTube
Cute Maltese dog watching YouTube
Maltese dog watching another maltese dog on YouTube. The Maltese is thought to have been descended from a Spitz type dog found among the Swiss Lake dwellers and was selectively bred to obtain its small size. There is also some evidence that the breed originated in Asia and is related to the Tibetan Terrier; however, the exact origin is unknown The dogs probably made their way to Europe through the Middle East with the migration of nomadic tribes. Some writers believe these proto-Maltese were used for rodent control before the appearance of the breed gained paramount importance. The oldest record of this breed was found on a Greek amphora[ found in the Etruscan town of Vulci, in which a Maltese-like dog is portrayed along with the word Μελιταιε (Melitaie). Archaeologists date this ancient Athenian product to the decades around 500 BC. References to the dog can also be found in Ancient Greek and Roman literature Aristotle was the first to mention its name Melitaei Catelli, when he compares the dog to a Mustelidae, around 370 BC.The first written document (supported by Stephanus of Byzantium describing the small Canis Melitaeus was given by the Greek writer Callimachus, around 350 BC. Pliny suggests the dog as having taken its name from the island of Adriatic island Méléda; however, Strabo, in the early first century AD, identifies the breed as originating from the Mediterranean island of Malta, and writes that they were favored by noble women During the first century, the <b>...</b>

The temple of ARTEMIS (Seven wonders of the ancient world) 4/7
The Temple of Artemis (Greek: Ἀρτεμίσιον, or Artemision), also known less precisely as Temple of Diana, was a Greek temple dedicated to a Goddess Greeks identified as Artemis. It was completed, in its most famous phase, around 550 BC at the Greek colony of Ephesus. Though the monument was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, only foundations and sculptural fragments of the temple remain. There were previous temples on its site, where evidence of a sanctuary dates as early as the Bronze Age. The whole temple was made of marble except for the roof. The temple antedated the Ionic immigration by many years. Callimachus, in his Hymn to Artemis, attributed the origin of the temenos at Ephesus to the Amazons, whose worship he imagines already centered upon an image. In the seventh century the old temple was destroyed by a flood. The construction of the "new" temple, which was to become known as one of the wonders of the ancient world, began around 550 BC. It was a 120-year project, initially designed and built by the Cretan architect Chersiphron and his son Metagenes.ΕΛΛΑΣ ΕΛΛΑΔΑ ΑΙΓΥΠΤΟΣ ΒΑΒΥΛΩΝΑ ΑΡΤΕΜΙΣ ΖΕΥΣ ΔΙΑΣ ΦΑΡΟΣ ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΕΙΑ ΦΕΙΔΙΑΣ ΠΥΡΑΜΙΔΑ ΓΚΙΖΑ ΕΠΤΑ ΘΑΥΜΑΤΑ ΑΡΧΑΙΟΤΗΤΑ ΚΟΛΟΣΣΟΣ ΜΑΥΣΩΛΕΙΟ ΑΛΙΚΑΡΝΑΣΣΟΣ HELLAS GREECE MACEDONIA EGYPT PYRAMID GIZA TEMPLE ARTEMIS STATUE ZEUS PHEIDIAS PHIDIAS OLYMPIA PHAROS ALEXANDRIA HANGING GARDENS BABYLON COLOSSUS RHODES MAUSOLEUM HALICARNASSUS SEVEN WONDERS ANTIQUITY ANCIENT WORLD ~FAIR USE~ Copyright Disclaimer Under Section <b>...</b>

Viva Las Islas Filipinas!
Viva Las Islas Filipinas!
The ancient Great Pyramid of Giza is the last man standing, so to speak, among the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World as listed by Greek historian and scholar, Herodotus and Callimachus, respectively. But have you ever heard of the New 7 Wonders of Nature? It is the new campaign from the New7Wonders Foundation founded by President Bernard Weber with the primary aim of discovering the incredible beauty and variety of our planet. What's so exciting about it is that the Philippines have a handful of sites (not website, but nature sites) nominated among the Top 77 official seven wonders nominees. From these 77 nominees, a Panel of Experts from the said foundation will choose the 21 finalist, to be announced on 21 July 2009. The 21 finalist will then be put to popular vote. On 1 January 2009, only one national nominee per country will be allowed to proceed: that is the highest ranked in the voting on December 31, 2008. That's why your vote is so important to make sure that we will have at least one entry among the 77 nominees. Check from this video which Philippine nature sites had made it to the top 77 nominees as of this writing. Here's how you can vote: - You can cast you vote at www.new7wonders.com - But before you vote, check from the same web-page the current latest ranking of the nominees participating to become a New7Wonder of Nature. - From those listings you have to chose your 7 nominees. - As you vote, I suggest you start with the Philippine natural wonder with the <b>...</b>

Visit of Cyrene & Slonta (Libya)
Visit of Cyrene & Slonta (Libya)
Cyrene, the ancient Greek city (in present-day Libya) was the oldest and most important of the five Greek cities in the region and gave eastern Libya the classical name 'Cyrenaica' that it has retained to modern times. It lies in a lush valley in the Jebel Akhdar uplands. It was named after a spring, Kyre, which the Greeks consecrated to Apollo. Cyrene was founded as a colony of the Greeks of Thera, traditionally led by Aristotle (later called Battus) of Thera, about 630 BC, ten miles from its port, Apollonia (Marsa Sousa). Details concerning the founding of the city are contained in Book IV of the Histories of Herodotus. It promptly became the chief town of the ancient Libyan region between Egypt and Carthage (Cyrenaica), kept up commercial relations with all the Greek cities, and reached the height of its prosperity under its own kings in the 5th century BC. Soon after 460 BC it became a republic; after the death of Alexander the Great (323 BC) it passed to the Ptolemies and fell into decay. Cyrenaica became part of the empire controlled by the Ptolemaic dynasty from Alexandria in Egypt and later passed to the Roman empire. Cyrene was the birthplace of Eratosthenes and there are a number of philosophers associated with the city including Callimachus, Carneades, Aristippus and Arete, and Synesius, bishop of Ptolemais in the 4th century CE. The inhabitants of Cyrene at the time of Sulla (c. 85 BC) were divided into four classes: citizens, farmers, resident aliens, and <b>...</b>

Night Dances of the Heliconian Muses
Night Dances of the Heliconian Muses
Mount Helicon (Ἑλικών) is a mountain in the region of Thespiai in Boeotia, Greece,[1] with an elevation of 1749 meters (5735 ft). It is located just off the Gulf of Corinth. In Greek mythology, the mountain was celebrated by Hesiod because two springs sacred to the Muses were located here: the Aganippe and the Hippocrene, both of which bear "horse" (ἵππος hippos) in their toponym. In a related myth, the Hippocrene spring was created when the winged horse Pegasus aimed his hoof at a rock, striking it with such force that the spring burst from the spot. On Helicon too was the spring where Narcissus was inspired by his own beauty.[2] In Greek myth, Helicon was sacred especially to the divinely inspiring Muses; in his Aitia, Callimachus recounts his dream in which he was young once more and conversed with the Muses on Helicon.[3] There had been a temple built on Helicon in their honor which contained statues of these Muses.[4] The Hippocrene spring was considered to be a source of poetic inspiration. In the late seventh century BCE, the poet Hesiod sang how in his youth he had pastured his sheep on the slopes of Helicon[5] where Eros and the Muses already had sanctuaries and a dancing-ground near the summit, where "their pounding feet awaken desire".[6] There the Muses inspired him and he began to sing of the origins of the gods. Thus Helicon became an emblem of poetical inspiration.[7] Callimachus explicitly follows in the footsteps of Hesiod and he placed on Helicon the <b>...</b>
