The City of Ubar - The Atlantis of the Sands and the People of AadShafin Verani
Nicholas Clapp embarked on an archaeological expedition in 1983 to find the lost city of Ubar in Arabia, also known as "The Atlantis of the Sands". He was inspired by previous accounts of the city from Bertram Thomas and T.E. Lawrence. Using aerial radar technology, Clapp and his team were able to locate evidence of the ancient fortified city of Ubar in 1992, finding buildings, artifacts, and remnants of its once thriving frankincense trade from over 2000 years ago. Further exploration revealed clues linking the site to the biblical figures of the Queen of Sheba and the people of Prophet Hud mentioned in the Quran.
This document discusses archaeological evidence that supports the biblical account of Moses and the Israelites' exodus from Egypt. It describes findings at locations associated with biblical figures like Jacob, Joseph, and Aaron. It then focuses on evidence discovered underwater and along the coast of the Gulf of Aqaba that supports the story of the Israelites crossing the Red Sea, including chariot wheels and human remains. The document argues this provides physical proof that corroborates the biblical narrative of the Exodus.
This document discusses archaeological evidence related to the biblical story of Moses and the Israelites' exodus from Egypt. It describes several archaeological findings that have been discovered, including Jacob's well, Joseph's tomb, Amram's tomb (Moses' father), Aaron's mountain, and underwater discoveries in the Gulf of Aqaba including coral-encrusted chariot wheels and bones that match the biblical account of Pharaoh's army being drowned as they pursued the Israelites. The document argues that this evidence supports the historicity of the biblical Exodus narrative.

Petra (Arabic: البتراء, Al-Batrāʾ; Ancient Greek: Πέτρα), originally known to the Nabataeans as Raqmu, is a historical and archaeological city in southern Jordan. The city is famous for its rock-cut architecture and water conduit system. Another name for Petra is the Rose City due to the color of the stone out of which it is carved.
The valley of the kings(ander and abril)Marta Martín
The Valley of the Kings is a valley located on the west bank of the Nile River in Luxor, Egypt, opposite the ancient city of Thebes. For nearly 500 years from the 16th to 11th century BC, it served as the principal burial site for pharaohs and powerful nobles of Egypt's New Kingdom. The royal tombs contained decorated scenes of Egyptian mythology and clues about the period's funerary rituals and beliefs. Although most tombs were opened and robbed in ancient times, they still provide insight into the opulence and power of the pharaohs. The valley is one of the most famous archaeological sites in the world today largely due to the 1922 discovery of King Tutankhamun

This document provides an overview of ancient Greek civilization from 3000 BC to 500 BC. It discusses the Bronze Age civilizations of Minoans and Mycenaeans, the Dark Ages, and the rise of the city-states and polis system in the Archaic Age. It then focuses on Sparta and Athens, the two dominant Greek powers, and their systems of government. The document concludes by covering the Persian Wars between Greece and the Persian Empire, including the key battles of Marathon, Thermopylae, Salamis, and Plataea that resulted in a Greek victory.
This document provides an overview of the Bronze and Iron Ages in the ancient Near East, biblical history, and parallels between the biblical period of the Judges and the post-Apostolic era. It discusses the transition from bronze to iron tool-making, Egypt's dominance in the region, migrations during the Bronze Age collapse, the Canaanite city of Ugarit. It also summarizes the cycles of the Judges, issues seen in biblical history and their similarities today, and how God uses imperfect people.
The document provides an overview of prehistoric cultures from the Paleolithic era to the Neolithic era. It discusses early cave paintings from 15,000-10,000 BCE found in France and their possible purposes. It also describes the transition to farming and domestication during the Neolithic, with rock paintings from Algeria depicting herding. Various artifacts are mentioned like figurines, pottery, and architecture from cultures across Europe, Africa, and Asia during this time period.
The Bronze Age was a period characterized by the use of bronze for tools and weapons like spears and axes. One Bronze Age culture was the Umm al Nar culture, which existed from 2600-2000 BCE in modern-day United Arab Emirates and Northern Oman. People of the Bronze Age lived in settlements and traveled by boat for trade, transporting metals, animals, pots, and jewelry between places like Britain and mainland Europe.
This document summarizes the major time periods of archaeology in ancient Mesopotamia from the Neolithic era through the Early Dynastic period. It provides brief descriptions of significant developments within each defined period, including the domestication of plants and animals in the Neolithic, the introduction of irrigation, pottery, and metal tools over time, early writing emerging in the Protoliterate period, and the development of political hierarchies and expansion of writing in the Early Dynastic period under Sargon of Akkad. Artifacts like pottery, seals, and tablets provide evidence of cultural and technological changes occurring across these early civilizations.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems.
