The Colossus of Rhodes was a giant statue built in 292 BC in Rhodes, Greece to celebrate the city's victory in war against Cyprus. It was constructed under the sculptor Chares of Lindos using funds from the defeated army. The massive bronze statue straddled the harbor entrance but was destroyed by an earthquake in 226 BC, snapping at the knees. Remains of the fallen Colossus were never rebuilt despite offers to do so, eventually being sold off.

Herod's Port & Palace Photo Album
Herod the Great ordered the construction of massive building projects including the harbor city of Caesarea Maritima and his palace fortress Herodion. Herodion was designed with thick, concentric walls to resemble a hill for camouflage and defense, and included cisterns, tunnels, and underground water systems dug by later Jewish fighters hiding from the Romans. As king, Herod oversaw extensive construction but had a paranoid nature and violent acts, even killing members of his own family. Caesarea served as an important city for Christians in the Roman province of Judea.

The Greek Dark Ages was a period between 1100-800 BC that followed the collapse of the Mycenaean palatial civilization. It was a time of limited cultural advancement and depopulation as many Greeks migrated out of Greece to places like Asia Minor. Former Mycenaean fortresses remained occupied but on a much smaller scale. The invasion of the Dorians from the Balkans contributed to the start of the Dark Ages. Some cultural exchange did still occur as evidenced by grave goods found in Greece from other civilizations. The establishment of the first Olympic Games in 776 BC and a population boom around that time marked the end of the Greek Dark Ages.

Daedalus & Icarus-Reading materials.pptx
Daedalus was a famous inventor in Greek mythology who crafted wings for himself and his son Icarus to escape from King Minos of Crete. Daedalus warned Icarus not to fly too close to the sun or sea, but Icarus ignored this advice and flew too close to the sun. The wax holding Icarus' wings together melted, and he fell into the sea and drowned. Daedalus continued on to Sicily and outwitted King Minos several times before eventually settling in Sardinia.

The Great Pyramid of Giza was the oldest and largest of the pyramids, while the Hanging Gardens of Babylon may not have actually existed.

A.为什么留学生需要操作留信认证?
留信认证全称全国留学生信息服务网认证,隶属于北京中科院。①留信认证门槛条件更低,费用更美丽,并且包过,完单周期短,效率高②留信认证虽然不能去国企,但是一般的公司都没有问题,因为国内很多公司连基本的留学生学历认证都不了解。这对于留学生来说,这就比自己光拿一个证书更有说服力,因为留学学历可以在留信网站上进行查询!
B.为什么我们提供的毕业证成绩单具有使用价值？
查询留服认证是国内鉴别留学生海外学历的唯一途径但认证只是个体行为不是所有留学生都操作所以没有办理认证的留学生的学历在国内也是查询不到的他们也仅仅只有一张文凭。所以这时候我们提供的和学校颁发的一模一样的毕业证成绩单就有了使用价值。乌龟和王八贼头贼脑的倒也逗人喜爱日上三竿时山娃总爱窜进自家瓜棚里跟小伙伴们坐着聊天聊着聊着便忍不住往瓜田里逡巡一番抱起一只硕大的西瓜用石刀劈开抑或用拳头砸开每人抱起一大块就啃啃得满嘴满脸猴屁股般的红艳大家一个劲地指着对方吃吃地笑瓜裂得古怪奇形怪状却丝毫不影响瓜味甜丝丝的满嘴生津遍地都是瓜横七竖八的活像掷满了一地的大石块摘走二三只爷爷是断然发现不了的即便发现爷爷也不恼反而教山娃辨认孰熟孰嫩孰甜孰淡水

- 2. Purpose The Colossus of Rhodes was built to show that the city of Rhodes won the war against the army of Cyprus. When Alexander the Great died, his land was divided into sections. Ptolemy was the ruler of Rhodes. Antigonus did not agree that Ptomely should rule Rhodes, and he sent his own son Demetrius into war for the land. Rhodes was ready and well prepared for the attack. Demetrius retreated one year later, and his army left behind all of their supplies. The Rhodians took their supplies and used the money/goods to create the Colossus of Rhodes in honor of their patron god Helios.
- 3. Location The Colossus of Rhodes was built in Rhodes, Greece. It is located in the Mandraki harbor along the Mediterranean Sea.
- 4. Sculptor Chares of Lindos was a Rhodian sculptor and architect. Chares most likely made several small figures (about 3 feet tall) to find the correct dimensions for the statue. Legends says that Chares died before the structure was completed. Some say that a critic told him of flaws, and Chares was so embarrassed that he committed suicide.
- 5. Destruction In 226 BC, an earthquake hit the Mandraki harbor destroying the Colossus of Rhodes. The statue snapped at the knees, and the ruins covered the town. Ptolemy III (ruler at the time) offered to pay for the reconstruction, but the oracle of Delphi “warned” the workers not to create another because “they had offended Helios.” The workers did not rebuild it. In 654, an Arab force took over Rhodes and sold the ruins to a Jewish merchant.
- 6. Timeline 292 BC – The construction of the Colossus of Rhodes began 280 BC – The Colossus of Rhodes was completed 226 BC – An earthquake hit and destroyed the Colossus of Rhodes 1970 – There was talk of rebuilding the statue, but there was not enough money to do so 1989 – Possible remains were found in the sea, but it was never confirmed
