Answer:    D. "Know thyself"

Explanation:  The Temple of Apollo in Delphi, in ancient Greece, was a sanctuary where destiny was foretold to people, hence the place of the holy oracle. When people were in a crucial situation, they would go to this temple to find out what to do next. The inscription that stood above the entrance signified the meaning and depth of the ancient religions, which can still be heard today through the various influences of these religions. Knowing yourself means to dive into the depths of our own selves, to understand who we are and what we are, and in this way we reach the divine, after which further paths in life are opened.

What is the grand mosque of cordoba as history and artistic elements
Monica [59]

Answer:

The Mosque-Cathedral of Córdoba has a rich, complex history. It was changed from basilica to mosque, to cathedral. All of this can be seen in its design, which is a rich and complicated mixture of Arabian, Catholic and Iberian elements.

Explanation:

<u>The Grand Mosque of Cordoba,</u> also known as the <u>Cathedral of Our Lady of the Assumption</u> (official name) and<u> The Mosque-Cathedral of Cordoba</u>, is the cathedral in Cordoba. It has a rich history and has served many purposes in the past. The land probably was first used for the Roman temple of Janus. It was build up as a basilica later, and when the Muslim community populated Cordoba around the 6th century, Christians and Muslims started sharing the sacred place. <u>It was then completely bought by the Arab dynasty, turned into a mosque, and expanded over the centuries. When Cordoba was conquered by King Ferdinand III of Castile, the mosque was turned into the cathedral. </u>

Because of this rich history, the art of the building is unique. The main plan parallels the early mosques, but at the very beginning, many Roman designs were incorporated, such as columns and mosaics. T<u>he materials used include ivory, silver, gold, copper, brass, red marble, onyx, granite, and jasper.</u> Hypostyle hall includes over 850 columns and is one of the most famous parts of the building. Another symbolic feature is the horseshoe arch, which was common in the architecture, but as made especially <u>rich with gold and glass pieces, and beautiful calligraphic writings</u>. The dome is covered in mosaics, while also resembling Gothic ribbed architecture. <u>The whole design of the massive complex is a mix of Arab, Catholic, and Iberian elements.</u>

astraxan [27]
Abraham Lincoln issued the preliminary Emancipation Proclamation on September 22nd, 1862. It stipulated that if the Southern states did not cease their rebellion by January 1st, 1863, then Proclamation would go into effect.

The Emancipation Proclamation changed the meaning and purpose of the Civil War. The war was no longer just about preserving the Union— it was also about freeing the slaves. Foreign powers such as Britain and France lost their enthusiasm for supporting the Confederacy.
