Ljubljana was allegedly founded by the Greek hero Jason and the Argonauts after defeating a monster living in a large lake near the source of the Ljubljanica River. According to legend, Jason and the Argonauts had stolen the golden fleece and fled across the Black Sea and several rivers to this lake, where they disassembled their ship to carry it over land to the Adriatic Sea. The monster Jason killed there is now depicted on Ljubljana's coat of arms as the Ljubljana Dragon.

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.
Petra
The city of Petra, carved into rose-colored sandstone cliffs in Jordan, was lost to the world for centuries until being rediscovered in the 19th century. Petra was constructed in the 6th century BC by the Nabateans and contained many magnificent constructions carved from rock, including temples, tombs, and a theater, demonstrating the engineering abilities of its builders. Though conquered by the Romans in the 1st century AD, an earthquake in the 6th century destroyed much of the city, which was abandoned after being inhabited for over 600 years.
Ali the G
Alexander the Great conquered the largest empire in the ancient world in just 10 years from Macedonia to India. He spread Greek culture and defeated King Darius III of Persia in multiple battles, burning the royal city of Persepolis to the ground. Though he pushed his army to their limits marching into India, the Macedonians rebelled and refused to go further, forcing Alexander to begin the long retreat back to Babylon where he died at age 33, leaving his empire divided among his generals.

Diego visited Ancient Greece and sketched many wonders, including monuments built by Greek gods, buildings made of stone and clay, and statues of gods made of gold. In his sketches, he depicted a large wall built by Vikings during wars between northern and southern Vikings, as well as the pyramids of Greece, which the Egyptians built first but on a larger scale. He also saw the Mountains of Zeus, created to protect villages from demons, and Dimensions Lake, said to have a portal to a world of dreams.
