| | The Holy Sixth Century |
| | The highly organized, closely observed, well-educated superstitionism of Hesiod in the 600s BC was mythology at it's very best. | | | Any serious inquiry or research into the chronology of human thought shows that the world of imitative, plagiaristic, devolved, badly derivative religion came after philosophy. | | | This phenomenon could also be referred to as proto-philosophy or proto-science or proto-reason. |

| | The Greek Quest for Ideal Order - By Miles Hodges |
| | Even with the onset in 431 BC of the troubled times within Greece (that is, the beginning of the Peloponesian Wars, directed largely against this Athenian dominance within Greece) Athenian life remained rich. | | | Aristotle (mid 300s BC) was a more "down to earth" (materialistic) thinker than his idealistic teacher Plato. | | | This is the first time that nearly the whole of the Near East had been brought under a single rule. |

| | Glastonbury Ancient Avalon |
| | Behind the central shaft, the stones form a perfectly polygonal chamber, and it is thought that ritual and sacrifice were carried out here at the correct seasonal times. | | | This exact knowledge shows that the human beings who lived and worked at Glastonbury, at least in 2000 BC, had high cultural standards that must have been inherited from earlier people, handed down as a mystical-scientific system from a time when the two were co-terminous, not hopelessly fragmented as they are today. | | | Sometime around 2000 BC a race of astronomer-priests came to Glastonbury and erected various earthworks and standing stones within the precincts of the Zodiac’s hallowed ground. |

| | Guardian The evil empire |
| | Rich beyond dreams, powerful beyond dispute, the great kings ruled from their mighty palaces at Susa and Persepolis, tolerating the religions and cultures of subject peoples and harvesting the creativity of near eastern civilisation that had already, before they came along, invented writing and urban life. | | | In its day, which lasted from the middle of the 500s BC until the defeat of Darius III by Alexander the Great in 331 BC, the Persian empire ruled a vast portion of the then-known world from the Nile to the Indus. | | | Yet the Persians are as notorious in their way as Darth Vader, the Sheriff of Nottingham, General Custer, or any other embodiment of evil empire you care to mention. |
