We could not have done this without you. We also thank Brothers Laura Schmidt, Charles “Chooch” Pickard, and Dana Hennis for traveling all the way to Pullman to pledge our colony, as well as for all the help they have provided during the colonization process. We also thank our big brothers at Andronicus Chapter for their guidance and friendship. We also thank Brother Scott Swanson for his help during colonization. acknowledgments 2 sostratus beacon Blazon: Quarterly sanguine and azure, in second a rose argent, a bend argent with nine mullets of eight sable, a beacon for difference. The beacon is representative of the Great Lighthouse of Alexandria, which was constructed by our namesake during the Third Century BC under the patronage of Ptolemy I of Egypt. In Sostratus’ day, the Pharos was used as a day beacon, and the beacon fire was added under the Romans. According to legend, Ptolemy refused to allow Sostratus to mark his work and instead demanded that the credit go to himself. Sostratus, however, had “Sostratus, son of Dexiphanes, the Cnidian, to the Savior Gods for the seafarers.” This was plastered over and an inscription honoring Ptolemy chiseled into the plaster. Over time, the plaster fell away, leaving Sostratus’ original inscription. The Great Lighthouse stood until the Fourteenth Century, when it was toppled by several earthquakes. In its day, it is thought to have been the third tallest building on Earth after the Great Pyramids of Khufu and Khafre. It was said that the light of the beacon could be seen as far away as 35 miles. Antipater of Sidon included the Great Lighthouse among the Seven Wonders of the World, and the Muslim traveler Ibn Jubayr said of it, “Description of it falls short, the eyes fail to comprehend it, and words are inadequate, so vast is the spectacle.” Concerning Sostratus himself, little is known besides his involvement in the design and construction of the Pharos lighthouse in Alexandria and that he was from Cnidus (in modern-day Turkey). His other known projects are the Hanging Pleasure Gardens at Cnidus, the Clubhouse of the Cnidians at Delphi, and some military works in the service of the Ptolemy, including temporary redirection of the Nile at Memphis. His final known project is the Tetra Stadium at Alexandria. 3 colony history 5 In the beginning, there were three the things that we would need to guys wanting more of a connection accomplish in order to join this Co-Presidents: with other architecture students. fraternity that we all so desperately Jamie Millard Bryce Cahill, Caleb Summerfelt and wanted too.
