	Article: The Madaba Mosaic Map Revisited (by Irfan Shahid)
		But a measure of agreement has been reached on two important points: that the map goes back to the sixth century, more specifically its second half;2 and that the primary source of the mosaic was the Onomasticon of Eusebius and with it, of course, the Bible.
		This century, and more specifically, the reign of Justinian, is the one that witnessed the explosion of Christian art in Byzantium--its golden period, both in the Capital and in the provinces, involving the provincia Arabia where Madaba was located and the Three Palestines--the administrative units that constituted the Christian Holy Land.
		As Madaba has been related to the sixth century in the previous section of this paper, so can also be related to the same century the choice of this particular form of the artistic expression of Madaba's identity, namely, the cartographic.

		The latter involved a lack of appreciation for the relatively short period (approximately 5 to 6 centuries) that it takes for a predominant grain type to be replaced by another (Watabe 1973), which was probably affected by the cultivator’s preference.
		In the first half of the twentieth century, before scientifically bred cultivars appeared in large numbers, the total number of unimproved varieties grown by Asian farmers probably exceeded 100,000, though many duplicates of similar or altered names were included in this tally (Chang 1984 and 1992).
		The sixth century agricultural encyclopedia Ch’i-Min-Yao-Shu (Ku undated) distinguished between basal and top dressings of manure, preached the use of human and animal excreta on poor soils, and provided crop rotation schemes (Chang 1979b).

	Chapter 2: Were Fourth to Sixth Century Jews Idolaters?
		And while the Jews from the fourth to the sixth centuries did allow various decorations in their own synagogues and burial places (like those of the Second Temple period), outright images and depictions of the gods of the heathen were expressly forbidden by the Jewish authorities from the time of the Second Temple period onward.
		The conclusion of many historians to this archaeological evidence is that the Jewish people from the fourth to the sixth centuries present a different picture of their religious beliefs than what all the voluminous writings and teachings of the Jewish authorities would have us believe represented normal Judaism.
		Among Jewish literature written during those centuries there is not a scrap of evidence that would suggest that mixing the worship of the pagan gods with themes of the Bible was proper.

	Daniel A. Foss, Third and sixth century crises east and west
		In the sixth-seventh centuries, while China was prospering and about to enter a period of violent expansion (discussed in posts a couple of months ago), the Byzantine empire lost its agricultural core, Egypt (which had fed Constantinople), its industrial core (Syria with Antioch), and its Armenian recruiting grounds to Arabs.
		By the time the economies of both, especially the Arab empire, commenced to flourish again in the eighth century, and Arab bureaucracy (not to mention culture) had developed apace with the capture of Chinese papermakers at the Battle of the Talas River (751), mere decades separated this florescence from the Zanj rebellion (869-888).
		The Chinese Third Century Crisis was far worse than the one undergone by the Roman Empire, as it was complicated by peasant war, from 184 to 189.

	Dating of the Book of Daniel
		If it weren't for the great details here, most people could assume that the book was written in the sixth century, and that the author got lucky with his vague allusions.
		Before this, and for some time after that, the general consensus was that the book was written by Daniel in the sixth century BC, and is the truly inspired prophecy from God (vaticania ante eventu vs. vaticania ex eventu).
		So assuming that Daniel was written in the sixth century BC, before the Prophet' canon was closed, it seems highly likely that Daniel probably wouldn't have been placed in it anyway.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Latin Literature in Christianity (Sixth To Twentieth Century)
		During the Middle Ages the so-called church Latin was to a great extent the language of poetry, and it was only on the advent of the Renaissance that classical Latin revived and flourished in the writings of the neo-Latinists as it does even today though to a more modest extent.
		From the beginning of the sixteenth century the Catholic humanist, Vida, had been engaged among other works on the composition of odes, elegies, and hymns: he belonged to the poetae urbani of the Medici period of Leo X, many of whom wrote lyrical, in addition to their epical, pieces.
		During the sixth century, while the foundations of a rich literature were being thus laid the culture formerly so flourishing in Northern Africa had almost died out.

		In the sixth century, we also find Greek sailors in the west; Marseille is their most famous colony.

	History of Miso and Soybean Chiang
		During the first several centuries of contact with the continent, miso and hishio were probably very similar to jiang, and many of the basic raw materials and complex fermentation techniques were undoubtedly acquired largely from the Chinese.
		Although notebooks dating from as early as the eighth century reveal that miso was bought and sold in the marketplaces of the former capital at Nara, the first shops specializing in its sale are said to have originated in about 925 in the new capital at Kyoto.
		By the 15th century, the most widely available varieties of miso are said to have finally lost their luxury status and made their way into the homes of the common people.

		We are rather well informed about pagan survivals in the Galician kingdom of the Sueves in the second half of the sixth century because of the determined efforts to uproot paganism made by St. Martin of Braga.
		His knowledge of Greek, [83] unusual in the West in the sixth century, is attested by his translation of the Sayings of the Egyptian Fathers and of a collection of eastern canons into Latin.
		In Galicia in the sixth century certain trees were also the object of a special cult, but the only practice which Martin mentions in connection with them was that of lighting candles.
