		Founded in 1857 by King Mindon, Mandalay was the last capital (1860-1885) of the independent Burmese Kingdom before it was annexed by the British in 1885.
		King Mindon decided to fulfill the prophecy and during his reign in the Kingdom of Amarapura he issued a royal order on 13 January, A.D 1857 to establish a new kingdom.
		The Ceremony of Ascending the Throne was celebrated in July, 1858 and the former royal city of Amarapura was dismantled and moved by elephant to the new location at Mandalay Hill.

	Daniel Stiles: Ivory Carving in Myanmar
		In 1857 King Mindon had Mandalay built and he moved the capital there.
		The earliest dated object made from ivory in the National Museum collections in Yangon today is an ivory chair crafted for King Thibaw in 1878, the year he succeeded his father to the throne.
		U Tin Aung has no sons and at 73 is unlikely to produce any now, thus a line of ivory carvers that started in the royal court of King Mindon in the 1860s will soon come to an end.

		Then in 1978 Williams produced Descartes: The Project of Pure Enquiry.
		In 1979 Williams (by now remarried, to Patricia Skinner) was elected Provost of King's College, Cambridge, staying there until 1987, when he left Britain for Berkeley in protest at the impact of the Thatcher government's policies on British universities.
		These policies had not stopped him from publishing, in 1985, the book that offers the most unified and sustained presentation of what Williams had to say about ethics and human life: Ethics and the Limits of Philosophy.
