 GREEK, Modern
Location: Prior to the late Hellenistic period, as noted in the chapter on Ancient Greek, there were Greek speakers all over the eastern Mediterranean, in Southern Italy, along the Black Sea coasts, in Egypt, the Levant, Cyprus, and much of Asia Minor.
The Ancient Greek positioning was valid throughout the Hellenistic period and on into Byzantine Greek, but in the Medieval period, the orientation of the weak pronouns toward the verb, as opposed to the clause, began to emerge, with the modern distribution developing after the 16th century.
In the early Koine, the perfect is on the wane and eventually disappears altogether as a category in the late Koine, only to be reconstituted as a category several centuries later in Medieval Greek through a periphrastic construction with 'have' as an auxiliary together with the sole productive remnant of the earlier infinitive.

 Encyclopedia: Ammit
Category: Egyptian demons In Egyptian mythology, Babi was the deification of the baboon, one of the main animals present in Egypt, and it is thought that from his name we get the word baboon.
Anubis, is the Greek name for the ancient god in Egyptian mythology whose hieroglyphic is more accurately spelt Anpu (also Anup, Anupu, Wip, Ienpw, Inepu, Yinepu, or Inpw).
Thus Ammit was depicted with the head of a crocodile, the front part of her body like a lion or leopard, and her back part in the form of a hippopotamus, a combination of those animals which were considered as the most dangerous to the ancient Egyptians.

 copycat
It was held that the god died with the plants and rose again when they reappeared the next season ; the cult, it was maintained, spread from Mesopotamia throughout the ancient world and was found with assorted names given for the Tammuz deity from Egypt (Osiris) through Palestine (Eshmun) into Greece (Adonis).
The putative category of dying and rising deities thus takes its place within the larger category of dying gods and the even larger category of disappearing deities.
As applied in the scholarly literature, 'dying and rising gods' is a generic appellation for a group of male deities found in agrarian Mediterranean societies who serve as the focus of myths and rituals that allegedly narrate and annually represent their death and resurrection.

 Multiculturalism in History: Hellenic and Roman Antiquity
The Greeks and the other ancient Mediterranean civilizations were not either racist or anti-racist, multiculturalist or chauvinist; and in any case the category of multiculturalism is a late-twentieth-century American invention which cannot be applied to the ancient world without causing confusion.
Ancient Mediterranean civilization is worth examining for another reason as well, namely, that it is an example of a culture remote, in time at least, from the modern West and therefore can serve as a test case of the proposition that non-Western cultures have been less ethnocentric and more hospitable to multiculturalism than our own.
Danaus's claim for asylum is based on a blood tie to the people of Argos since they, too, are said to be descended from 10, who had fled to Egypt long before.

When combined with the shear size of some of the quarries (notably that at Beni Hasan, which extended for miles), this system allowed ancient Egypt to be able to produce soft stone in extremely high voloume and at a relatively low cost.

 Africa. Exploration of Africa.
Knowledge of the rich country between the Transvaal Republic and the Zambeze has extended with wonderful rapidity, through the exertions of the pioneers Mauch, Mohr, Baines, Elton, and St Vincent Erskine, so that this region has now almost passed out of the category of lands in which geographical discoveries can be made.
A point of great interest in the progress of the exploration of this country was the discovery by Mauch, in 1871, of the ruins of an ancient city or fortress, named Zimbaoe, certainly not of African construction, about 200 miles due west from Sofala, in lat.
In the end, however, it appears to have been completely successful, and s before Sir Samuel Baker's return to Egypt in 1873, the whole country, as far south as the equator, had been taken possession of in the name of Egypt, and several garrisons had been planted to maintain the hold.

Nations such as ancient Egypt, the Aztec Empire, the Persian Empire, and the short lived Greek/Macedonian empire under Alexander the Great could in one sense be considered early superpowers, at least for a time when an understanding of what is meant by "the world" was much smaller than it is today.
Not as clearly in this category are nations that gained unquestioned hegemony over a large neighborhood at a time before global travel was a reality.
In 16th and 17th centuries the Ottoman Empire stretched from the Straits of Gibraltar to the Persian Gulf and challenged the nations of Europe in its advances along its southeastern border.
