And because of the rules I can't pick D now...

As for Elvains question: I go with B) Ibn Khaldoun - Avecaldun. Why? I don't know. Looks made up to me. :wink:

B) African or European sounds logical.

Correct.

And what happened to the Muslim philosophers?
Elvain
21-01-2007, 17:12
the question was not official (ws too late)

I made up Ibn Khaloun's "latin name" so you were right.

Maybe take the turn, as Largefry doesn't seem to ask the question?

Thanks, I was just curious about the answer.

I don't have a question right now and in the rules it says that the next question must be posted within 24 hours.

So, if anybody has a question... Go ahead.

:hello:

B.) Thucydides
though some say he's not...
Largefry07
22-01-2007, 17:45
Not according to the two sources that I have. B is not the father of history.
Elvain
22-01-2007, 19:04
I thought you won't agree :wink:

most of historians say it's the other

D) Herodotus

I only know Thucydides and him.
Elvain
22-01-2007, 20:54
It's right.

I gues that Livy is Livius who also was one of the greatest ancient historians. Anyway a roman historian can't be a father of history when there were Greeks before him :go:

Herodotus is the one who's mostly respected as the father of history :go:

Kuno your turn.
Kuno of Gersenau
24-01-2007, 15:40
oh, nearly forgot about this...

which one of these was the last pagan roman emperor?

A) Galerius
B) Valentinian II
C) Julian
D) Theodosius
E) Maxentius
Largefry07

A) Galerius???
Kuno of Gersenau
25-01-2007, 11:58
no, he was pagan, but not the last one....
Elvain
25-01-2007, 13:15
Theodosius

I think Constantine after him was pagan to, but converted to christianity later

was it that one story? as constantine lied on this "death bed" and after he has been baptized, he was mysteriously healed ....:confused:
:angel:
Kuno of Gersenau

no, Theodosius was already a "born" Christ....He lived in the late 4th century, therefore after Constantine...

Actually he even was the one who made Christianity the one and only religion of the roman state...

I knew he was somehow connected with christianity. I thought he was the last who tried to eliminate them, but it was Diocletian, right? I should look on roman history again, I'm forgetting too much :bash:
