Considering the wealth of archives and logged news stories and broadcasts from all sorts of sources, I would have thought that finding twenty year-old news broadcasts from the Bosnian War would've been relatively simple. But my searches have come up empty. It seems that archives have not been created for this conflict, or the West simply didn't report on the Bosnian War. Does anyone have any information on this?

I often hear about how women in the ancient Greek society were treated as a lesser gender, often with little to no rights of property. I hear and read about how women are treated as little more then housewives who should just be quiet and get pregnant. (Now I'm not a historian, so my sources are probably very incorrect) Furthermore, there's the Greek sexuality, in which the men seem to take a central position. Why then, is the Greek goddess of love, beauty and sexuality female? Why is Athena female, if woman were considered to be inferior to men? Why is Artemis, goddess of the hunt, female, if hunting was a predominantly male activity?

In other words, how did the Greek society deal with, what seems to me, a weird double standard? How could they attribute hunting and wisdom to a female persona, but still consider all woman inferior?

Also what does clipping of hair mean in the treaty of umar?

I've heard recently about the relative weightlessness and flexibility of full plate armor, in comparison to chain mail, due to weight distribution and the use of separate armor pieces. I have also heard that after the initial charge, many knights would remove their helmets because of the restriction they put on visibility.

However, I was always taught that during the Battle of Agincourt, many French knights were killed because they were knocked face down in the mud, and were unable to get up due to the weight of their armor in the mud. The muddy water seeped into the points in their helmets, through the air holes, and they were drowned.

These two "facts" seem somewhat contradictory to me, and I would simply like some clarification on the issue.

Edit: I use too many commas

For example Tiger 131 was captured in early 1943, yet even by 1945 American armor was still largely inferior to that of the Germans. I just am a little baffled by this considering how the US was in many ways better equipped in other forms of armaments.

My only theory is the US was employing a strength in numbers approach as opposed to 'quality' per say. Considering nearly 50k Shermans were built compared to the combined total of Panther and Tiger tanks (~12k)

More specifically, the remaining Samaritans claim that they practice the actual religion of ancient Israel, and Judaism is a corruption that occurred during the Babylonian Exile. How true is this? What sort of changes did the exile bring about? Would someone practicing Judaism today, if transported back to 1000 BC, even recognize the religion of the time (and likewise in the reverse)? What about a practicing Jew merely from around 1 AD?

If possible, I'm most interested in what kind of syncretic religion/culture emerged from Tengriism/Judaism touching and what the lasting effects were. That said, I'll happily consume any favorite facts or illuminating chunks of information about the Khazars in general.

I've been looking and searching for the answer but have been unable to find it. I think this is the right place to post this type of question but if I misinterpreted the rules I'll delete the post.

I know the basic idea behind the battle cruiser. A quick, hard hitting surface raider who's purpose is to scout and report on enemy actions. Their were a few notable battle cruisers, HMS Hood being chief among them, and the early American carriers Lexington and Saratoga were supposed to be Battle Cruisers before the Washington Naval treaty. But we're they ever used for thier intended intended purpose. Besides the battle of Jutland.

I have just watched the Klondike mini series from 2014 and there seem to be loads of people packed in to one small area, in the Deadwood series we know other claims exist but only ever see one man prospecting in his own it seems like he has the forest to himself, were the makers of Deadwood just saving money by not depicting anyone else around him.

Just curious on how quickly imminent news traveled over long distances during this time period. Any primary sources would be greatly appreciated since I want to research this further. Thanks

The State of Israel was founded around 3 years after the collapse of Nazi Germany, so surely Nazis were still around. How did they feel when the Jewish people suddenly had their own nation?

If so, why such a preponderance of Smiths, Millers, and Clarks, and a dearth of Fishers, Hunters, and Miners?
