Extractions: He grew up in the Armenian compound of St. James in Jerusalem, where he received his early education. For six years he was a professional tour-guide throughout the Holy Land. In addition to a Bachelor's degree in history and ancient languages and a Master's degree in archaeology and history of antiquity, he holds a Doctorate in Theology from the University of Basel, Switzerland, specializing in Early Christianity and its Jewish and Hellenistic backgrounds. Before coming to St. Nersess in 1997, he was Professor of Intertestamental and Early Christian Literatures for twenty years at various universities in the US and abroad, and for four years a recurring Visiting Professor for both Classical Armenian and Hellenistic Judaism at the University of Chicago. Dr. Terian is an internationally recognized scholar in these fields. His publications include three books on the first-century Jewish philosopher Philo of Alexandria (whose voluminous works survive in part in an old Armenian translation only): (1) Philonis Alexandrini de Animalibus: The Armenian Text with an Introduction, Translation, and Commentary; (2) Alexander, e versione armeniaca; and (3) Quaestiones et Solutiones in Exodum, e versione armeniaca et fragmenta graeca. (The first was published by Scholars Press [Chico, CA 1981], and the latter two by Éditions du Cerf in the series Les uvres de Philon d'Alexandrie, vols. 36 and 34c [Paris 1988 and 1992]). His subsequent research in Philonic studies has resolved the long-standing problem of the chronology of Philo's voluminous works and has provided a viable methodology for distinguishing between tradition and originality in Philo.

Extractions: From the ancient time up to the beginning of the 20th Century, people tried time and again to build such machines. But such machines, although they were miracles of mechanics, were never very useful. The Ancient Greeks were clearly obsessed with the notion of creating mechanical living beings. We do know that they had very advanced engineering skills and most certainly managed to make partially animated Statues which would be used in Ceremonies. In the 2th and 3th centuries BC, mechanists and mathematicians such as Philon of Byzantium and Heron of Alexandria , were the theorists of automata. In 13th century Europe, the jacks-of-the-clock, large figures made out of wood, or with iron or cast iron - armed with hammers, strike the bells for rhythm time, on the top of their bell-towers.

Extractions: The Seven Wonders of the World Most people know about the Seven Wonders of the World and can name a few, the Great Pyramid and the Hanging Gardens of Babylon being the two most often remembered. Though the current list is the best known, it actually took centuries to compile. The Greek writers, Antipater of Sidon and Philon of Byzantium, drew up two of the lists. Some lists contain such ancient wonders as the Walls of the City of Babylon and the Palace of Cyrus, King of Persia, though the Great Wall of China or Stonehenge would probably have made it had they been known. The first reference to the idea of a list is mentioned by Herodotus in his work The History by Herodotus as long ago as the 5th century BC. Callimachus of Cyrene (305BC-240BC), Chief Librarian of the Alexandria Mouseion, wrote "A Collection of Wonders around the World". Unfortunately, this list was destroyed with the Alexandria Library. The oldest reference to the current list comes from the engravings by the Dutch artist Maerten van Heemskerck (1498-1574) and Johann Fischer von Erlach's "History of Architecture." Not all the Seven Wonders existed at the same time, a good reason for the variations in some of the lists. All but one of the Seven Wonders are gone, the Pyramids at Giza being the sole survivor on the list and the only one that we have specific knowledge of relating to appearance. The Colossus of Rhodes only stood for 56 years before an earthquake brought it down. There are descriptions and these are included in the individual sections, where available.

Extractions: The ancient Greeks were the first to begin compiling lists of the most marvelous structures they knew about. These included historical structures that had long been destroyed, yet were widely chronicled. Greek writers, Antipater of Sidon, and Philon of Byzantium compiled the two most well known lists. Most of the lists agreed on six items on the list, however, the seventh item was widely debated upon. Up until the sixth century AD, the seventh item was usually declared either the Walls of the City of Babylon or the Palace of Cyrus. Finally, around 600 AD, the seventh item was acknowledged as The Lighthouse of Alexandria. Places such as Stonehenge, or The Great Wall of China were beyond the limits of the Ancient Greek World. Thus, the Seven Wonders were mainly confined to the reachable surroundings of the Ancient Greek Empire.

One of the most interesting features in the sculptures of the Trajan Column is the representation, difficult to meet with elsewhere, of the artillery of the Romans. The Romans well understood the advantage, not only of being able to inflict loss on an enemy at long ranges, while he was too distant to annoy their own troops, but also of the moral weight which the possession of mechanical contrivances for this purpose would give them. Some advantage was gained by the Carthaginians when they brought elephants into battle. Besides being formidable in the actual shock of battle, those monsters inspired terror from their size, their supposed ferocity, and the prevailing ignorance about them. In more ancient times the weight, size and space of ground covered by ranks of armed chariots, in the Asiatic and Greek armies, the mere noise produced by these vehicles, the roar of a thousand wheels (without springs) rolling over rough ground, probably contributed to demoralize an enemy before any actual contact with the rank or phalanx of spearmen.
