Old World 101
In this video I try to share my thoughts on several historical topics. It begins with a short list I wrote on paper. It is not complete, and really a poorly made video, but I do think the elements are there.
Thanks for watching, God bless, and I love youโฆ

"According to a certain person, Matsuguma Kyoan told the following story some years ago: In medical practice, there is a distinction of treatment according to the yin and yang of men and women. There is also a difference in pulse. However, in the last fifty years, the pulse of men has become equal to that of women. When I noticed this, I applied the treatment of women to men in the treatment of eye diseases and found it suitable. When I observed the application of men's treatment to men, there was no result. Therefore, I knew that the spirit of men had weakened and they had become equal to women, and that the end of the world had come. Seeing this with certainty, I kept it a secret. Indeed, if you look at the men of today from this point of view, there are many who you would think had the pulse of a woman, and only a few who seem like real men."

Stone of the Five Suns, 1503
Coronation Stone of Motecuhzoma II
This stone, commemorating the beginning of the reign of Emperor Motecuhzoma II, was originally located within the ritual center of Tenochtitlan, the capital of the extensive empire conquered by the Aztecs between 1428 and 1519. The ruins of the city lie beneath downtown Mexico City.
Known as the Stone of the Five Suns, this monument draws connections between Aztec history and the cosmic scheme. The quadrangular block is carved with the hieroglyphic signs of five successive cosmic eras, called โsunsโ in the language of the Aztecs. These eras were mythic cycles of creation and destruction that began in the time of genesis and continued with the birth of humankind and the period of Aztec rule.
From โ4 Jaguar-sunโ in the lower-right corner, the eras proceed counterclockwise through โ4 Wind-sun,โ โ4 Rain-sun,โ and โ4 Water-sun.โ The X carved in the center represents โ4 Movement-sun,โ the sign of the present era for the Aztecs. The year โ11 Reedโ in the square cartouche refers to 1503, the year of Motecuhzomaโs coronation, while the day listed above itโโ1 Crocodileโโcorresponds to July 15, when the ceremony probably occurred. On the underside, the hieroglyphic date โ1 Rabbitโ denotes the beginning of things in the distant mythological past.
The sculpture thus legitimizes Motecuhzomaโs rule as part of the cycle of birth, death, and renewal and presents him as heir to the world in the present era of creation.

This is legit the penultimate internet library if you are frustrated with tg pdf databases. You'll find just about any officially published document (in my experience) on there.
๐ The largest truly open library in human history. โญ๏ธ We mirror Sci-Hub and LibGen. We scrape and open-source Z-Lib, Internet Archive Lending Library, DuXiu, and more.
Annaโs Archive is a non-profit project with two goals:
Preservation: Backing up all knowledge and culture of humanity.
Access: Making this knowledge and culture available to anyone in the world.
Preservation: We preserve books, papers, comics, magazines, and more, by bringing these materials from various shadow libraries, official libraries, and other collections together in one place. All this data is preserved forever by making it easy to duplicate it in bulk โ using torrents โ resulting in many copies around the world. Some shadow libraries already do this themselves (e.g. Sci-Hub, Library Genesis), while Annaโs Archive โliberatesโ other libraries that donโt offer bulk distribution (e.g. Z-Library) or arenโt shadow libraries at all (e.g. Internet Archive, DuXiu).
This wide distribution, combined with open-source code, makes our website resilient to takedowns, and ensures the long-term preservation of humanityโs knowledge and culture.
