Great Song ! Enjoy it ... Lyrics ... It's a good day for going to sea Hanno the Navigator said to me. There's an open sky and a steady breeze out beyond the Pillars of Hercules. Above the foam-kissed waves seagulls scream up in the masts of our trireme and it's a good day for going to sea Hanno the Navigator said to me. Water Water From horizon to horizon All I see is water Steer beyond all maps and charts down along the coast of Africa. The first Phoenicians on this beach, where the monkeys gibber and the parakeets screech. Strangest women run wild down there, covered head to toe in fur and hair. They fight like demons, better let them be, Hanno the Navigator said to me. Water Water From horizon to horizon All I see is water When you pull close to your fire at night with your family framed in the candlelight, safe inside these walls of stone in the only village you've ever known. The rain-soaked moon plays splintered crystal shadows on your windowsill. Like sparks of light in the shifting skies, our ancient ships go sailing still on Water Water When my sailing days are done I'll seek Poseidon's daughter. Oarsmen pull and curse and sweat underneath this creaking deck. At night I hear their stories told, strong through storms and weak for gold. Carthage stands like an azure pearl here in the middle of the known world. And it's a good day for going to sea, Hanno the Navigator said to me. Water Water From horizon to horizon All I see is water. Water Water When my sailing days are done I'll seek Poseidon's daughter. It's a good day for going to sea, Hanno the Navigator said to me.

Presented by Alessandro Sorbello http://alessandrosorbello.com for New Realm Media http://www.newrealm.com.au promoting http://www.accommodationgreekislands.com Ios in the Greek Islands - The finds of the archeological excavation on the hill of Skarkos prove that the island has been inhabited since the early Cycladic period. Evidence of this lies in the very well preserved walls of buildings and the vessels demonstrating the flourishing of an important community. The remnants of the walls on the west and north entrances to Chora lead us to the conclusion that the castle's hill has been inhabited since the archaid period. There are elements that bear witness to the presence of Careans, Pelasgians, Achaeans and Phoenicians, who gave the island the name "Phoenicia". The Ionians came and settled to the island in 1050 B.C. A version history.gif about the origin of the island's name claims that it derives from the name of the Ionians, but this doesn't seem to be valid linguistically, because in such case the name would be "Ionia" or "Ionis". According to another version, the name derives from the Phoenician word "Iion", meaning "a heap of stones". This version doesn't seem valid either, as we know that the Phoenicians had inhabited places that were much rockier than Ios. Finally, according to the prevailing version, Ios took its name from the violets (Greek "ion") that fill its countryside each spring. The island has been related with the death of the poet Homer, creating a myth that in the course of the centuries turned into a tradition. Inscriptions and coins, but mainly texts of the ancient historians Stravon, Pausanias and Herodotus, give proof of the fact that the great poet died and was buried in Ios, the birthplace of his mother, Klymeni. Travellers in Greece in the 17th-19th century do not omit mentioning the evident delight of the inhabitants of the island in showing the visitors Homer's tomb at the area of Plakoto. During the classical period, Ios joined its forces with the Athenian League to avoid being occupied by the Persians, and thus established a democracy. The inscriptions from that era show that the inhabitants spoke the Ionian dialect and worshipped the ancestral Athenian god Pithius Apollo, as well as the protector of the Ionians, Fytalmius Poseidon. In 338 B.C. after the battle of Cheroneia, Ios came under the rule of Macedonia, and in 315 B.C. regained its independence and became an equal member of the "Islanders' Community". Later on, Ios entered into alliance with Ptolemy Philadelphus (280 B.C.) and the Rhodians (220 B.C.) who had become an important naval power in the Aegean, against the Macedonians. In the 2th century B.C., the Romans occupied Ios and included it in their "provincia insularum" using it, like the island of Giaros, as a place of exile. During the Byzantine period, the Christians built many churches on the foundations of the pre-existing paganistic temples, using their ancient columns, marbles and inscriptions to give validity to the new religion and to secure the continuity of the religious worship. Until Ios came under Frankish rule, it suffered a lot from the pirate raids, as its natural harbour was a sheltered anchorage for all ships. At that time, whenever the islanders saw a foreign ship in the port, they would barricade themselves in the castle, sending the oldest women of the island to the port. If they came back, then everything would be all right. If not, then they would have to prepare for battle. In 1204 Ios was occupied by the Crusaders, and up to the 15th century it was ruled by the noble family of Crispi, forming part of the Duchy of Naxos. The Crispi rebuilt the castle on the ruins of the old one to protect the island from the pirates. But in 1537, Hairedin Barbarossa, the Turkish pirate, occupied the Duchy of Naxos, together with Ios. During the following years, Ios was occupied by the Turks and devastated by the pirates, which continued to plague the entire Aegean Sea region. Yet, the island kept its Greek identity, and in 1770 sided with the Russians, who were at war with the Turks, in order to regain its freedom. At that time the island had 1400 inhabitants. In the Greek War of Independence against the Turks, in 1821, Ios took part with 24 equipped ships. During the same period, a war ship was constructed on the island, while Ios also had a school with about 100 children. The final liberation came with the incorporation of Ios in the modern Greek State, which was founded by the signature of the protocol of London on the 10th of March 1829.

Carthaginian Empire Rome European Science and the Black Red Yellow Brown & White race of earth. The ancestors of the Carthaginians were the Phoenicians, who, were African (Black), their founder being Queen Dido. Dido is said to have refused to marry Larbus, the Black King of Morocco. The widowed Queen, Dido of Carthage, committed suicide rather than comply with the unnatural and selfish importunities of her subjects to marry Iarbus, the swarthy monarch of Mauritanian. The first objection to this is that there is no proof as to Dido's shade or race. So why make her look European? But supposing that she was European or so-called White and that her subjects were so un-natural and selfish as to wish her to marry a Black African, which would mean that subjects had not such undying color prejudice as the European, endows them with. If Dido and her subjects were Black then would it be un-natural for them to wish their queen to marry a Black man? Besides there are several versions why Dido killed herself, According to one story, she committed suicide because her lover, Aeneas, deserted her.

Thats the story the politically correct historians in the government schools tell our children. Well, the true story is Columbus was a Johnny come lately compared to those who came and went frequently to America in 2000 BC. Yes, you heard right, 2000 BC. For example, coming and going to an established port off the coast of Maine, where in there is an ancient inscription in Phoenician language that says, Ships of Phoenician cargo platform. In Dr. Berry Fields book Bronze Age America one learns that one billion pounds of copper was taken from mines in America around Lake Superior between 2000 and 1000 BC. Steven Collins, author of Israels Lost Empire, tells the politically incorrect history of America and the ancient Hebrews who were, by the way, not Jews. He tells how King David was not just a king in Palestine, but had a world empire. You of course are not supposed to know this; youre supposed to believe Columbus discovered America.
