  • Child Abuse in Greek Mythology: a Review C Stavrianos, I Stavrianou, P Kafas
    The Internet Journal of Forensic Science ISPUB.COM Volume 3 Number 1 Child Abuse in Greek Mythology: A Review C Stavrianos, I Stavrianou, P Kafas Citation C Stavrianos, I Stavrianou, P Kafas. Child Abuse in Greek Mythology: A Review. The Internet Journal of Forensic Science. 2007 Volume 3 Number 1. Abstract The aim of this review was to describe child abuse cases in ancient Greek mythology. Names like Hercules, Saturn, Aesculapius, Medea are very familiar. The stories can be divided into 3 categories: child abuse from gods to gods, from gods to humans and from humans to humans. In these stories children were abused in different ways and the reasons were of social, financial, political, religious, medical and sexual origin. The interpretations of the myths differed and the conclusions seemed controversial. Archaeologists, historians, and philosophers still try to bring these ancient stories into light in connection with the archaeological findings. The possibility for a dentist to face a child abuse case in the dental office nowadays proved the fact that child abuse was not only a phenomenon of the past but also a reality of the present. INTRODUCTION courses are easily available to everyone. Child abuse may be defined as any non-accidental trauma, On 1860 the forensic odontologist Ambroise Tardieu, neglect, failure to meet basic needs or abuse inflicted upon a referring to 32 cases, made a connection between subdural child by a caretaker that is beyond the acceptable norm of haematoma and abuse.

  • Jason and the Golden Fleece by Max I
    Jason and the Golden Fleece By Max I. A long time ago, a child named Jason was born in the small kingdom of Iolcus, which was in Northern Greece. He was born before actual Greek history, in a time where Gods and heroes still existed. He was the son of King Aeson, who ruled Iolcus fairly and justly. His mother was descended from Poseidon, the god of the sea. Therefore, Jason had royal blood and divine blood as well. Jason grew up to be a good looking and good-natured boy. He was polite to everybody and everybody liked him. And everybody knew that Jason would inherit the throne of Iolcus. He was a good friend of Max, who was a foreigner from Colchis. In fact, he was one of the most valuable people on the journey because he was from where the Golden Fleece was hidden. 10 years before Jason was born, a king and queen called Athamas and Nephele ruled in Northern Greece. However, king Athamas grew tired of his kind, virtuous queen, and sent her away so he could marry a cruel woman named Ino. However, Ino was so cruel she resolved to murder the king’s children, as she was mad after a argument with Athamas. Queen Nephele rushed back to save her children and enlisted the help of the God Hermes. Hermes created a massive golden ram to carry the two children to safety. Their names were Phrixus and Helle. The Ram carried them all the way to Colchis, where they could seek shelter. However, as they were flying over a great river that separates Europe from Asia, Helle fell off the Ram to her death.

Published by: The Department of Historical Studies, University of Toronto Mississauga Stable URL: http://jps.library.utoronto.ca/index.php/prandium/article/view/25694 2 The Religion in Medicine: an exploration of healing through the examination of Asclepius and the Epidaurian Iamata By Ongelle‐Lise Burnett1 For many Ancient Greeks, Asclepius was the god usually sought after to assist in the recovery process.2 As the evidence presented in the Epidaurian inscriptions indicate, patients praised Asclepius because he not only answered their prayer requests in a timely manner, but also cured their diseases, typically, in one nightly visit.3 His healing‐cult, dedicated to “curative and protective powers,” created a different, yet acceptable, form of worship that spread from existing shrines in Tricca, Epidaurus, Athens and the Piraeus to the Aegan, Asia Minor and Egypt.4 This paper will use examples from the Asclepieion sanctuary at Epidaurus, which welcomed patients from different parts of ancient Greece. This sanctuary was special because patients participated in an incubation practice where dreaming allowed the god(s) to heal and give advice on further courses of action.5 Thus, at Epidaurus, a patient found counsel and prophecies through a different form of healing: nightly dream‐filled visions.6 This paper explores the belief of the people in Asclepius, through the examination of the iamata (the erected physical testimonies of healings) and the events at Epidaurus.

  • The Cardui Flew at a Variable Height So As to Fly Only a Few Feet Above Fences, Or Buildings in Their Path
    1968 Journal of the Lepidopterists' Society 119 The cardui flew at a variable height so as to fly only a few feet above fences, or buildings in their path. The flight pattern never varied; the butterflies never veered to avoid an obstacle but simply rose up over it. The flight over open fields was about three feet above the ground level. The rate at which the cardui passed over our line of observation (a width of about 70 feet) was estimated at 12 to J5 individuals per hour during the first days of the migration. Sunday, June J9, 1966 marked a flight peak and also its end. On this windy afternoon the rate of passage increased to 20 to 25 per hour. Few of the cardui were observed on any of the days after 4:00 P.M. A number of specimens of cardui captured and examined were old and worn, showing the wear and tear of an apparent long flight. A few of the cardui netted were in good condition. A curious phenomenon was noted in connection with the flight of the cardui; occasionally they were accompanied by what appeared to be Polygonia interrogationis (Fabricius) . Records of Vanessa cardui migrating in the eastern United States are few, and little is known concerning the reasons for migration. Host plants are available in western Ohio. LOUIS A. HOYING, 227 S.
