$The Magna Carta (1215) One of the most famous of all medieval texts. Magna Carta Libertatum (Medieval Latin for the Great Charter of the Liberties), commonly called Magna Carta, is a charter of rights agreed to by King John of England on 15 June 1215 after intense civil unrest within the kingdom. First drafted by the Archbishop of Canterbury to make peace between the unpopular King and a group of rebel barons, it promised the protection of church rights, protection for the barons from illegal imprisonment, access to swift justice, and limitations on feudal payments to the Crown, to be implemented through a council of 25 barons. Ultimately neither side stood behind their commitments, and the charter was annulled by Pope Innocent III, leading to the First Barons War. After Johns death, the regency government of his young son, Henry III, reissued the document in 1216, stripped of some of its more radical content, in an unsuccessful bid to build political support for their cause. At the end of the war in 1217, it formed part of the peace treaty agreed at Lambeth, where the document acquired the name Magna Carta, to distinguish it from the smaller Charter of the Forest which was issued at the same time. Short of funds, Henry reissued the charter again in 1225 in exchange for a grant of new taxes. His son, Edward I, repeated the exercise in 1297, this time confirming it as part of Englands statute law. How do we actually know about history?

$Massacre at Ayyadieh (1191) // Richard Lionheart and Saladin // As told by Baha-ad-din One of the many horrors of the Crusades. It is August 20th 1191. Just over a month has passed since the fall of the port of Acre, and the crusader king Richard Lionheart has been negotiating with the legendary Sultan Saladin for the return of his captured prisoners. Negotiations have broken down, and Richard has brought his Muslim captives to a raised hill in full sight of Saladins men. This account comes to us from Baha-ad-din, a Muslim historian who knew Saladin well. It is worth noting that by Saladins order some 2,300 Christians met the same fate in Damascus a little while later. This version comes from an older translation - hence the use of the archaic musselmen in place of Muslim. How do we actually know about history?

In 60 BC Rome was not yet an empire, but soon it would be.
