Antiquity (noun) and ancient (adjective of antiquity, or obsolete noun for an old person) may refer to:
The Praetorian Guard (Latin: Praetoriani) was a force of bodyguards used by Roman Emperors. The title was already used during the Roman Republic for the guards of Roman generals since the rise to prominence of the Scipio family around 275 BC. The Guard was dissolved by Emperor Constantine I in the 4th century. They were distinct from the Imperial Germanic bodyguard which provided close personal protection for the early Roman emperors.
The term praetorian derived from the residence of the commanding general or praetor of a Roman army in the field—the praetorium. They were an elite recruitment of Roman citizens and Latins. It was a habit of many Roman generals to choose from the ranks a private force of soldiers to act as guards of their tent or person, usually consisting of both infantry and cavalry. In time, this cohort came to be known as the cohors praetoria; various notable figures possessed one, including Julius Caesar, Mark Antony and Augustus (Octavian). As Caesar discovered with the Legio X Equestris, a powerful unit more dangerous than its fellow legions was desirable in the field. When Augustus became the first ruler of the Roman Empire in 31 BC, he decided such a formation was useful not only on the battlefield but in politics also. Thus, from the ranks of legions throughout the provinces, Augustus recruited the Praetorian Guard.
The Collegiate Network (CN) is a non-profit tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization that provides financial and technical assistance to student editors and writers of roughly 100 independent, conservative and libertarian publications at leading colleges and universities around the United States. The CN estimates that member publications have a combined annual distribution of more than two million. Since 1995, the CN has been administered by the Intercollegiate Studies Institute (ISI), headquartered in Wilmington, Delaware.
According to its web site, the CN "focuses public awareness on the politicization of American college and university classrooms, curricula, student life, and the resulting decline of educational standards." Newspapers and journals in the CN regularly call attention to what they interpret as corruption and hypocrisy in campus administrations' and student groups' policies, argue in favor of free speech in liberal education, encourage discussion and debate, and train students in the principles and practices of journalism.

Texts in ancient Sanskrit described previous civilizations that had high technology and similar material across a number of ancient cultures. Suggesting a number of civilizations, far predating ones from the last 10,000 years, have come and gone, wiped out by various earth changes. According to different wisdom traditions, humanity goes through cycles such as Bronze and Iron Ages or what is called yugas by the Hindu. Evidence in the form of human fossils and artifacts, such as found in sedimentary layers dating back millions of years, contradicts the current theory of human origins. Ancient wisdom sources suggested that more sophisticated or advanced beings were here first and they produced simpler life forms...
The One True History It's their worst nightmare, people everywhere are waking up to the fact that the bible was 100% accurate all along, and the people that run science have created a giant lie. The history lessons of the bible have never been shown to be wrong, and are constantly being proven more and more correct. EVERY SINGLE CULTURE on the plane reports the deluge in their oral or written history, (every single one!), most with incredibly similar tales. So, thats 'History'... next, when one considers the scientific knowledge embedded into the apocrypha esprcially the book of Enoch, and it's perfect descriptions of flat earth's physical phenomena, it makes the original bible the most accurate document ever created. Just it's simple elegance and incredible level of brevity, its antiqui...
The elder gods theory offers a revised account of our past. Known archaeological findings do not fully support conventional explanations for Earth's development, or the emergence of humankind as a species. Archaic evidence and ancient texts suggest that extraterrestrial influences may have been present since primordial times. Based on modern discoveries and reevaluation of ancient records and artifacts, this theory addresses a wide range of topics, answering many mysterious questions including the following: *Do ancient records, mythological accounts, and sacred texts reveal the presence of otherworldly benefactors? *Did life within our solar system first develop on another planet beyond Earth? *Might humans be a hybrid creation combined from indigenous Earth species and extraterrestrial l...

Black Women In Antiquity - Professor Ivan Van Sertima
Manly Palmer Hall was a Canadian-born author and mystic. He is perhaps most famous for his work The Secret Teachings of All Ages: An Encyclopedic Outline of Masonic, Hermetic, Qabbalistic and Rosicrucian Symbolical Philosophy, which is widely regarded as his magnum opus, and which he published at the age of 27. He has been widely recognized as a leading scholar in the fields of religion, mythology, mysticism, and the occult. In 1934, Hall founded the Philosophical Research Society (PRS) in Los Angeles, California, dedicating it to an idealistic approach to the solution of human problems. The PRS claims to be non-sectarian and entirely free from educational, political, or ecclesiastical control, and the Society's programs stress the need for the integration of philosophy, religion, an...
This is only going to get worse.
(I can see the fear running through your eyes)
At gunpoint in a darkened room
(hope to make it out alive)
Will you change, will you survive
(hope to see you alive)
If you change, will you survive?
The last escape plan is quite worrying to me.
Will you run, will you die?
Run a little faster.
They've walked in so casually, intentions are less than great
As the pulse increases the blood flows
But will you stand up, can you stand?
The last escape plan is.
(the last escape plan is)
The last escape plan is quite worrying to me
Will you run, or will you die?
Well run a little faster.
