RM2HJCNGG–A portion of a broadsheet illustrates the mass burials that took place during the Great Plague of 1665. The Great Plague (1665-66) was the last major epidemic of the bubonic plague to occur in the Kingdom of England (part of modern day United Kingdom). Plague doctors traversed the streets diagnosing victims, although many of them had no formal medical training. Several public health efforts were attempted. Physicians were hired by city officials and burial details were carefully organized, but panic spread through the city and, out of the fear of contagion, people were hastily buried in overcr
RM2HJCKCN–Sirens, Naiads and Tritons etched by Angiolo Falconetto, 16th century. In Greek mythology the Sirens were dangerous and beautiful creatures, portrayed as femme fatales who lured nearby sailors with their enchanting music and voices to shipwreck on the rocky coast of their island. They were formerly handmaidens of the goddess Persephone. When the girl was secretly abducted by Hades, Demeter gave them the bodies of birds, and sent to assist in the search. They eventually gave up and settled on the flowery island of Anthemoessa. The Sirens were later encountered by the Argonauts who passed by unh

Famous pirate captains Thomas Tew, William Want, Thomas Wake and William May sailed under his leadership. The biggest catch of his career was the Gang-i-Sawai, part of Grand Moghul's of India convoy of ships. They plundered about 600,000 pounds of gold, silver and jewels. Every disbanded his fleet, sailed to the Caribbean, where he changed his name to Benjamin Bridgeman. He sailed to the Ireland with leftovers of his crew.

RM2HJCMD9–Mary Read AKA Mark Read (1685 - April 28, 1721) was an English pirate. She began dressing as a boy at a young age, at first by her mother in order to receive inheritance money and then as teenager in order to join the British military. She then married and upon her husband's death moved to the West Indies. In 1720 she met Jack Rackham and joined his crew, dressing as a man alongside Anne Bonny. Her time as a pirate was successful but short lived, as she, Bonny and Rackham were arrested in November 1720. Read was pregnant and received delayed sentences. She died of a fever, likely due to compli

Today the hand axes of the Somme River district are widely accepted to be at least 500,000 years old and thus the product of Neanderthal populations, while some authorities think they may be as old as one million years and therefore associated with Homo erectus.

Harvey was the first person to accurately determine how the heart circulated blood throughout human and animal bodies and was also the first to posit the theory that humans and other mammals reproduced when an egg was fertilized by sperm. His work 'De Motu Cordis', published in 1628, remains a milestone in science. He was often so immersed in his own thoughts that he would often suffer from insomnia. A heavy drinker of coffee, he would walk out combing his hair every morning full of energy and enthusiastic spirit through

He and his men raped, pillaged and burned much of Maracaibo before moving south to Gibraltar. Despite being outnumbered, the pirates slaughtered 500 soldiers of Gibraltar's garrison and held the city for ransom. He ran aground on a sandbar on the coast of Darien.

Congenital iodine deficiency syndrome is a medical condition present at birth marked by impaired physical and mental development, due to insufficient thyroid hormone (hypothyroidism) often caused by insufficient dietary iodine during pregnancy. It is one cause of underactive thyroid function at birth, called congenital hypothyroidism, and also referred to as cretinism. If untreated, it results in impairment of both physical and mental develop

He served both as Attorney General and Lord Chancellor of England. His political career ended in disgrace in 1621. He remained influential through his works, especially as philosophical advocate and practitioner of the scientific method during the scientific revolution. Bacon has been called the creator of empiricism. In his most important work, Novum Organum, he proposed a rational method for scientific inquiry, one based on observatio

It was a DOD sponsored full-scale test of the ASROC anti-submarine rocket weapon system. Operation Dominic was a series of 31 nuclear test explosions conducted in 1962 by the United States in the Pacific. This test series was scheduled quickly, in order to respond in kind to the Soviet resumption of testing after the tacit 1958-1961 test moratorium. Most of these shots were conducted with free-fall bombs dropped from B-52 bomber aircraft. Operation Dominic occurred duri

Invented by Herman Hollerith, the machine was developed to help process data for the 1890 U.S. Census. The cards were coded for age, state of residence, gender, and other information; clerks punched holes in the cards to enter information from returns.The tabulator had 40 counters, each with a dial divided into 100 divisions, with two indicator hands; one which stepped one unit with each counting pulse, the other which advanced one unit every time the other dial made a complete revolution.

William Hunter published numerous articles on anatomy, surgery and midwifery, but his most famous work was the beautiful Anatomia uteri humani gravidi, or The anatomy of the human gravid uterus. In his preface, Hunter states that many of the drawings were first prepared in 1751. A majority of the drawings were executed by Jan van Rymsdyk, and a great number of engravers participated in the project. Printed at Birmingham: by John Baskerville, 1774.

RM2HJCMJX–According to legend, the island of Korcula was founded by Trojan hero Antenor in the 12th century BC who is also famed as the founder of the city of Padua. Although archaeological finds show that Korcula island has been inhabited since the Paleolithic age, the town of Korcula was first mentioned in the 10th century. The oldest architectural remains, fragments with interlacing ornamentation, date exactly from that time. After the Greeks, Illyrians and Romans, in the 9th century Croats have arrived and remained on the island. Some biographers suggest that Marco Polo was born in Curzola, today kn

Chemical gases were broadly used during World War I to cause incapacitation, harm, or death to opposing troops. The types of chemicals ranged from agents such as tear gas to lethal gases, such as phosgene, mustard gas, and chlorine. Their effectiveness diminished in the later stages of the war due to countermeasures, such as gas masks. The use of p
RM2HJCKD4–The Trojan Horse is a tale from the Trojan War about the stratagem that allowed the Greeks to finally enter the city of Troy and end the conflict. After a 10 year siege, the Greeks constructed a huge wooden horse, and hid a select force of men inside. The Greeks pretended to sail away, and the Trojans pulled the horse into their city as a victory trophy. That night the Greek force crept out of the horse and opened the gates for the rest of the Greek army, which had sailed back under cover of night. The Greeks entered and destroyed the city of Troy, decisively ending the war. Cyclopedia of Univ

RM2HJCMDJ–Slaves exposed for sale. The Atlantic slave trade involved the transportation by slave traders of enslaved African people, mainly to the Americas. The vast majority of those who were enslaved and transported in the transatlantic slave trade were Africans from central and western Africa, who had been sold by other West Africans to Western European slave traders, who brought them to the Americas. The South Atlantic and Caribbean economies especially were dependent on the supply of secure labour for the production of commodity crops, making goods and clothing to sell in Europe.

Elected by his Edinburgh trade guild to recover as many goods as possible, Spalding came up with the idea of diving to the wreck. Using his background in mechanics, Spalding read every book he could find on the design of Halley's diving bell. Spalding determined that Halley's design had weaknesses that a
