Edit for clarity: Particularly Western/ American society in the 19th-20th centuries. When establishing paternity would have legal ramifications, but no way to conclusively prove anything.

Or was it rediscovered several times? Also, were there any cultures that practiced astronomy in the southern hemisphere?

The idea is that other hominids did not ever domesticate dogs and that from the perspective of other hominids, Homo Sapiens essentially seemed to have the power to control wolves.

This has been asked before, about 2 years ago, but all the comments were nuked. I've been doing some initial reading on the Roman Empire and found it hard to decide. On the one hand, he was the only constant Western leadership for decades, and was a competent military commander, on the other, every time a half decent looking Emperor came along, he got rid of or went to war with them. The latter point seems all the more important when the Emperor he was contesting was the Eastern Empire's nomination and could have lead to closer cooperation between the two halves, r.e.) countering the myriad external threats and retaking Africa.

Any insight would be much appreciated.

The majority of history teachers (both in highschool and college) that are not specialized in Medieval history that I had still believe it and I even seen one of my fellow students rant in front of my Medieval teacher because he said otherwise.

I know that this is a myth ( I seen enough primary sources that contradict it to be quite stunned everytime that someone believe it) and that it emerged or gained popularity in the 19th century.

So who started this myth? are there some authors that already believed in it prior to the 19th century? Why is still believed?

It keeps being mentioned in my reading in reference to 1521-1522 but was there a German contemporary who first used the phrase?

In the early 20th Century, how much control did the United Kingdom have over the governments of their Dominions (Australia, Canada, etc)

Curious about what different cultures believed about people with these conditions and how they were treated throughout history.

In the TV show Vikings (I know, I know, not history), Ivar the Boneless builds himself several means of combating his paralysis of the legs. From a War-Chariot, to crutches, to some kind of metal leg brace rig, he seems to have found numerous ways to move about despite having no walking capabilities.

But for Real History: how likely is it that any -pelagic (para or other wise) would have a way of off setting disability?

Did they have the equivalent of peg legs? Crutches? Full Leg Braces? Wheel Chairs (like on Game of Thrones for Doran Martell)? Hook hands? Wooden hands?

For those experts outside this time frame: Were they available in your era?

I am a dostoyevsky (19th century russian writer) fan and i would like to understand more precisely how rich or how poor his characters were. I understand 10 rubles were a lot of money but i want to feel "how much". Were 10 rubles in 1869 like 1000 dollars in 2018, or could it be even more? Perhaps even less?

I know that they were formally written down around the 13th century, but it seems that they were passed down orally before being written down. Do we have an idea of when these tales (specifically the Four Branches of the Mabinogi) originate? Could it have been written before the Roman occupation of Britain?
