#63 - The Heir of Achilles, Chapter 1 (Author Reading)

Τι συμβαίνει με το νησί των Αντικυθήρων; Τι αρχαιότητες και τι ιστορία έχει; Και πώς μπορούν αυτές οι αρχαιότητες να ξετυλίξουν μπροστά μας συγκλονιστικές ιστορίες του αρχαίου κόσμου και κοσμοϊστορικά γεγονότα; Ένα επεισόδιο για το πως μικρά, ελάχιστα ευρήματα μπορούν να συνδεθούν με μεγάλα γεγονότα που εντυπωσιάζουν ακόμα την παγκόσμια ιστορία. Γιατί η αρχαία, η κλασική και η ελληνιστική περίοδος ήταν περίοδος κοσμοϊστορικών αλλαγών για όλο τον κόσμο

Πάλι τα Αντικύθηρα

Dive into the enigmatic world of ancient mythology and cosmic possibilities with Seshat Ba Nekhbet—a song inspired by the legends of stargates, celestial keys, and the bridge between heaven and earth. This track weaves ancient Egyptian and Sumerian lore into a tapestry of mystical sounds, drawing listeners into a realm where history and speculation intertwine.

The Stargate Myth
Folklore whispers of an artifact known as the du ran ki, translated as the "bond of heaven and earth." According to ancient Sumerian texts, this key was no mere symbol but a functional device—a tool said to open gateways between realms. Enki, the Sumerian god of wisdom and water, is often depicted as walking through these gates, using the key to traverse dimensions and access divine knowledge.

This mythology finds an intriguing parallel in the Temple of Hathor at Dendera, Egypt. On its upper floors and hidden crypts, carvings depict otherworldly devices and cosmic connections. Some believe these symbols hint at stargates—portals capable of transporting individuals to other worlds or dimensions. Theories suggest that these stargates, activated by the du ran ki, were not just metaphorical but technological, bridging the gap between the mortal and divine.

A Gateway to the Unknown
Ancient civilizations often described their gods as beings who traveled between realms, bringing wisdom and technology. Could these myths be fragments of forgotten history? Was the du ran ki a literal key to unlocking the universe? The song embraces these mysteries, inviting listeners to ponder the possibilities of ancient advanced knowledge and inter-dimensional travel.

Musical Inspiration
Blending ethereal ambient tones, Egyptian-inspired melodies, and haunting percussion, Seshat Ba Nekhbet transports you to a time when the stars were not just lights in the sky but gateways to the beyond. This song is a journey—a meditation on humanity’s eternal quest to connect with something greater.

Chapter 9 - The Lord Hears - The Lord Remembers

Explore the rich and enduring legacy of the Haida people of Haida Gwaii (meaning "Islands of the People"), an archipelago off British Columbia's coast. Occupied for over 10,000 years, the Haida's history is deeply intertwined with the land and sea.
Often likened to "Vikings of the Pacific Northwest," the Haida were master seafarers renowned for their large cedar canoes, extensive trade networks, and formidable warrior culture. Their society was intricate, structured around Eagle and Raven clans with a matrilineal system, and marked by significant potlatch ceremonies that renewed social bonds and demonstrated status through generosity.
Haida artistry is a cornerstone of their identity, with totem poles serving as a "visual language" to pass on histories, clan identities, and spiritual connections. Their art, including argillite carving practiced for 10,000 years, is not merely decorative but deeply purposeful and ceremonial.
The Haida worldview is rooted in a profound spiritual connection to nature, believing in reincarnation and a circular view of life, with salmon holding immense importance for survival and spiritual renewal.
Despite facing devastating impacts from European contact, including smallpox epidemics and colonial policies like the ban on potlatches and the residential school system, the Haida have shown remarkable resilience. Today, the Haida Nation is experiencing a powerful cultural renaissance, actively working to preserve their language, revive their art, and reclaim their ancestral lands, notably through the co-management of the Gwaii Haanas National Park Reserve and Haida Heritage Site.
Join us to uncover the ancient past, vibrant culture, and enduring spirit of the Haida people, a story of connection, artistry, and unwavering resilience.

In the dying days of the Roman republic, a remarkable woman steps out of the shadows and beyond the boundaries imposed on her sex, driven by an unstoppable ambition. Kaarina Parker's stunning debut novel, told in the compelling voice of this brilliant woman from history, brings Fulvia and the society in which she lived vividly to life.

Born into a wealthy but unimportant family, Fulvia is raised in the peace of the Etruscan countryside but longs for a life of excitement and influence. When her father dies and her inheritance is threatened, she makes her way to the city of Rome to secure her future.

Motivated by both passion and opportunism, Fulvia marries Clodius, a hedonistic young senator. They are perfect partners - risk takers, scornful of convention and eager for change. Although Clodius is heir to a leading aristocratic family, he has spent his life criticising the rules of his class and championing the common people. As a wife and mother, Fulvia fulfils her role in a society that denies women any influence outside the home - but she is also a ruthless political strategist, intent on seeing her husband rise through the ranks of Rome's governing body, the senate. And, through him, wielding her own authority. But Rome is a dangerous place, and power can become notoriety overnight. Fulvia soon learns just how high the stakes really are, and that her ambitions may come at a terrible cost.

In this episode Gregory Dobbs chats to Kaarina Parker about her passion for Roman history, the hedonsim of the late Roman Empire, and how Fulvia, a young woman from the provinces, rose to become one of its most influential citizens.

We'll take a closer look at daily life in these early urban centres, from towering ziggurats and bustling markets to the invention of cuneiform and the rise of kings.
