# David Morgan (frontiersman)

**David Morgan** (12 May 1721  19 May 1813), sometimes known as "The Great Indian Fighter", was a soldier, mountaineer, pioneer, and frontiersman in what is now the state of West Virginia.

He was born in Christiana, New Castle, Delaware, the third child of Morgan Morgan and Catherine *Garretson* Morgan, traditionally stated to be the first white settler in West Virginia. Family tradition claims he was a friend of George Washington and Patrick Henry. Morgan was hired to help George Washington to survey the lands of Lord Fairfax's Virginia land holdings in 1746 and establish the northern border of Fairfax estate. This boundary became the border between Maryland and Pennsylvania. A monument placed at the northern branch of the Potomac River is known as Fairfax Stone. Afterwards, Washington hired David to survey his land on the Ohio River. The Morgan Family Bible states that he killed seven Indians in self-defense.

The most famous Indian fight he was in occurs in 1778 when he was bedridden in Prickett's Fort, he had a dream that his children were running around scalped. He grabbed his gun, ran outside, and found his children chasing a cow near two Indians on his land in present-day Rivesville, West Virginia.

Another account tells that he killed another Indian and the settlers in Prickett's Fort made the Indian's skin into a shot pouch, and presented it to David as a souvenir.

Morgan participated in many battles of the French and Indian War and the Revolutionary War. He and a younger brother Zackquill (Zackwell) Morgan first settled Morgantown, West Virginia in 1767, which is the town where West Virginia University is located. David and his brother Zackquill first came through the Morgantown area in 1767 and resided at what would be future Downtown Morgantown for a few years. (It wasn't until 1785 when Morgantown became an official city and Fort Morgan wasn't built until 1772) David lived here for two years before moving to Red Stone Creek in Pennsylvania. He then returned to live at Morgantown in 1772 and built the Fort Morgan stockade before he finally moved to area of Fairmont, West Virginia.

In 1745, Morgan built a log cabin at Bunker Hill, Frederick (now Berkeley) County, (West) Virginia. (This structure was later expanded and became the Morgan-Gold House; it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.) In 1772, he moved to Marion County, (West) Virginia. David also built and lived in the original Prickett's Fort State Park helping protect the bastion from Indians and British soldiers alongside Jacob Prickett. During his time in Fairmont, West Virginia he founded and established the community of Pettyjohn on the West side of Fairmont.

Morgan is the 3rd great grandfather of West Virginia Governor Ephraim F. Morgan (1869–1950) and Congressman William S. Morgan (1801–1878).

## Military service

### French and Indian War

During the French and Indian War, David fought under the command of Captain Charles Lewis with the 1st Virginia Regiment. He was also a defender at Fort Necessity and served under General Edward Braddock in the disastrous march on Fort Duquesne, present-day Pittsburgh. It was at Fort Duquesne that he received his famous Sabre scar on his left cheek from fighting the French. David also was a part of the Forbes Expedition that successfully captured Fort Duquesne. Other battles he fought in include the Battle of Jumonville Glen, Battle of the Wilderness, Battle of Great Cacapon, possibly the Sandy Creek Expedition, and several other important battles of the war. Then David, along with many other acquaintances, also helped to track and fight Indians and French soldiers. They tracked them from Buffalo Creek, to the West Fork River, to Cheat River, to the Allegheny Mountains, and Deckers Creek until they skirmished against the Indians and French, lost their trail, and finally had to camp along Deckers Creek.

### American Revolution

David served in a militia company under his brother Zackquill, then served as a private under the command of Captain William Haymond's Co., Virginia Militia; he had previously fought with the 10th Virginia Regiment for a few months; and even earlier as Captain of 5th Co., 8th Lancaster Battalion under Col. Peter Grubb. He and the Morgan clan vowed themselves to George Washington and the American cause, and David was there willing to fight blue-coated in volley lines and frontier style. (Might have been because of his ancestral Welsh) He served in the American Revolution from about 1775 to the end of the war. He fought in numerous battles including Saratoga, Siege of Fort Laurens, Cowpens, skirmishes against loyalists in the Ohio Country and Native Americans at Prickett's Fort, and, according to Glenn Lough's *Now and Long Ago*, western campaigns such as the Brodhead Expedition. other engagements of the war. His final rank leaving service was Captain.

David married Sarah Stevens in 1745. Together they had the following 8 children:

1. Morgan 'Mod' Morgan born 20 Dec 1746 died 31 Oct 1826
2. James Morgan born 5 Apr 1748 died 3 Mar 1840
3. Evan Thomas Morgan born 3 Mar 1753 died 18 Mar 1850
4. Mary Elizabeth Morgan born 1755 died 1798
5. Zackquill Morgan born 8 Sep 1758 died 27 Feb 1834 (not to be confused with Colonel Zackquill Morgan founder of Morgantown, West Virginia)

# Temptations of Christ (Botticelli)

The ***Temptations of Christ*** is a fresco by the Italian Renaissance painter Sandro Botticelli, executed in 1480–1482 and located in the Sistine Chapel, Rome.

## History

On 27 October 1480 Botticelli, together with other Florentine painters, Domenico Ghirlandaio and Cosimo Rosselli, left for Rome, where he had been called as part of the reconciliation project between Lorenzo de' Medici, the *de facto* ruler of Florence, and Pope Sixtus IV. The Florentines started to work in the Sistine Chapel as early as the Spring of 1481, along with Pietro Perugino, who was already there.

The theme of the decoration was a parallel between the Stories of Moses and those of Christ, as a sign of continuity between the Old and the New Testament. A continuity also between the divine law of the Tables and the message of Jesus, who, in turn, chose Peter (the first bishop of Rome) as his successor: this would finally result in a legitimation of the latter's successors, the popes of Rome.

Botticelli, helped by numerous assistants, painted three scenes. On 17 February 1482 his contract was renovated, including the other scenes to complete the chapel's decoration. However, on 20 February, his father died: he returned to Florence, where he remained.

## Description

The *Temptations of Christ* depicts three episodes from the gospels, in parallel with the painting on the opposite wall, also by Botticelli, showing the *Trials of Moses*. A frieze, similar to that beneath the other frescos, has the inscription *TEMPTATIO IESU CHRISTI LATORIS EVANGELICAE LEGIS* ("The Temptations of Christ, Bringer of the Evangelic Law").

The subject of the title takes place in three scenes in the upper section of the fresco. On the left, Jesus, who has been fasting, is tempted by the Devil, in the guise of a hermit, to turn stones into bread. In the second scene of temptation, at the upper centre of the picture, the Devil has carried Jesus to the top of the temple of Jerusalem, represented by the facade of the Chapel of Santa Maria in Traspontina of the Church of Santo Spirito in Sassia in Rome. The Devil tempts Jesus to challenge God's promise that he will be protected by angels, by throwing himself down. In the third temptation, to the upper right, the Devil has taken Jesus to a high mountain where he shows him the beauties of the Earth. The Devil promises Jesus power over this domain, if he will deny God and bow down to the Devil. Jesus sends the Devil away from him, while angels come to minister to him.

In the foreground, a man whom Jesus has healed of leprosy presents himself to the High Priest at the temple, so that he may be pronounced clean. The young man carries a basin of water, in which is a bough of hyssop. A woman brings two fowls for sacrifice and another woman brings cedar wood. These three ingredients were part of the ritual of cleansing of a leper. The high priest may symbolize Moses, who transmitted the Law, and the young man may symbolically represent Christ, who, according to the Gospels, was wounded and slain for the benefit of mankind, and healed through the Resurrection so that mankind might also be made spiritually clean, and receive salvation. In Christian symbolism, many stories, such as the healing of the leper, are perceived to prefigure the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus, or other events in his life.

# Ted Kautzky

**Theodore Kautzky** (1896–1953) was a Budapest-born architect, painter. teacher, and author of books on painting techniques. He emigrated to New York, United States in 1923.

## Early life and education

Kautzky was born in 1896 in Budapest, Hungary, to a family of moderate means. His father was a wrought iron designer who wanted him to follow in his trade; however, growing up near the Danube where there was a rich local and national tradition of participation in the arts and crafts had influenced him at a young age. He attended the Royal University in Budapest to study architecture, graduating from there in 1921.

### Influence in the formative years

He began drawing and painting with watercolors while he was still in school. The formal education provided him with the basic instructions in drawing, but Kautzky began to spend most of his spare time in independent pursuit of art. By the time he was in high-school, he was popularly known as *"that Kautzky boy who draws and paints so well in watercolor."*

His interest in architecture and architectural subjects began by observing, drawing, and painting the bridges, churches, palaces, government buildings, and various types of dwellings in the twin cities of the Hungarian capital. A number of these structures were built during the Gothic and Renaissance times.

### Early development of style

Kautzky began drawing with a pencil and then advanced to black-and-white tones. He then learnt the use of brushes and watercolors to create realistic pictorial effects. Early on, he made use of the many tints and hues readily available in the stores at the time, but over the years began to simplify his color palette by being selective of the color pigments he would use to match his style and temperament. He espoused the same idea of being restrictive in color mixing to his students during his career as a teacher later in his life.

## Career

Kautzky was employed by a prominent architect of Budapest after his graduation. His initial role at the firm was to perform minor duties and tasks in drafting, but after recognizing his talents, he was assigned to work on a final presentation rendering for a major client. His work on the project was appreciated and the client immediately approved the designs, leading to his growth in stature and responsibilities within the firm.

### Emigration to America

In June 1922, the Chicago Tribune announced an international competition for architects to design their new office building, the Tribune Tower. Publishers of the Tribune, Joseph Patterson and Robert R. McCormick, designed the contest, announced a $100,000 prize to be distributed among the top architects, and asked the contenders to create *"the most beautiful office building in the world."*

When news of this competition reached Kautzky's office, he signed up for the opportunity to win world-wide fame and the considerable prize money. He collaborated with his associate, Lorand Lechner, who worked on their plans for the building while Kautzky focused on the exterior design and rendering.

The competition attracted 263 entries from 23 countries. While the first prize went to the American team of John Mead Howells and Raymond M. Hood, the second to the Finnish architect Eliel Saarinen and his team, and the third to Holabird & Roche \- a Chicago-based architectural firm, Kautzky and Lechner won an honorable mention for their design.

Kautzky had studied many skyscrapers and other architectural designs from various cities of America. At the same time, skyscrapers were being rapidly built and developed in New York and across America, while Hungary was going through an economic depression and governmental upheaval. After much deliberation with colleagues, friends, and family, he set sail for New York in late 1923, aged 26, to explore creative opportunity in the developing New World.

### Beginnings in New York

Upon finding suitable lodgings in New York, Kautzky began looking for work with the architectural firms of the city. He had learnt enough English to converse in ordinary life, but while he carried his credential, letters of recommendation, and samples of draftsmanship, the language barrier made it difficult to begin searching for work opportunities. However, as per the European custom, he went on to apply for work dressed with spats, gloves, and a cane, bowing and clicking his heels while introducing himself to the receptionist and asking to see the boss. This formality quickly earned him his first job.

Over the next year, he worked with several firms before joining the prominent theater architect, Thomas W. Lamb, for whom he soon became the Chief Designer. Kautzky worked with Lamb for the next three years working on elaborate perspectives and elevations of the popular early 20th-century theaters.

### Motion picture industry

The mid 1920s witnessed a boom in the motion picture industry and movie theaters were fast-becoming popular among audiences. Another architect, John Eberson, had begun creating illusions of being seated outdoors in exotic foreign environments for the theater audiences. He achieved this by lining his auditoriums with scenes and buildings of famous tourist places, made with plaster and stucco replicas with staged lighting on them and night sky painted on the ceiling above, giving audiences the effect that they are actually outdoors. Many large-scale distributor-exhibitor chains began incorporating this architectural style in their auditoriums in the late 1920s.

Kautzky was convinced to join Eberson's company as a Chief Designer, a role he maintained for the next six years. This allowed him to conduct intensive research on historic buildings and their architectural style, and then be creative with re imagining the old material applying pictorial composition techniques to three dimensional designs. His experience with this company was reflected in his later work as an architect and a painter.

### Great Crash of 1929

In 1929, the New York stock market crashed, the event known as the Wall Street Crash or the Great Crash. It signaled the onset of the Great Depression and the economic collapse of businesses and industries worldwide. The architectural and building field was slow to react, but many projects across United States came to a halt. A number of draftsmen were laid off. and those who were needed to work on projects that could not be postponed or canceled faced reductions in their salaries.

Kautzky managed to acquire enough commissions and jobs to survive through the worsening economic depression until President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal came into action. This began a series of public works projects initiated by the government and emergency committees formed by architects to provide new work opportunities. Even then, by the end of 1933-34, there was a scarcity of private architectural work and many architects found a safe haven in the jobs provided at the Arsenal in Central Park, New York.

Robert Moses, the Commissioner of Parks, had set up a drafting room to work on the City and State sanctioned park improvements. Kautzky was one of the architects who joined the project; however, work was assigned at random and he was tasked with the job to design full-size details for zoo building for Central Park.

Kautzky was dismayed by the kind of work he was assigned to do and made regular protests to the Park officials. He wanted to work on renderings. An opportunity came in 1934 when Moses called in one morning at 10 AM and demanded a 30" x 20" charcoal rendering of a bird's eye view of the Park's development ready by 5 AM the same day to be published in the newspaper. The drafting room chief, Joe Hautman, recalled the protests and claims made by Kautzky and assigned him the task, which he finished promptly much to the pleasure of the Commissioner.

The publication of his first rendering for the Department of Parks in 1934 became a turning point for Kautzky. He was assigned most of the delineation renderings for the department until he left it in 1937. Even thereafter, the Commissioner, his architects and engineers continued to give him special commissions for many of the public projects, including parks, tunnels, bridges, housing, and other structures. Since almost all of these renderings were published in local newspapers and national magazines, Kautzky began to gain countrywide recognition for his work for the first time.

### Freelance work

Soon after leaving the Department of Parks in 1937, Kautzky set up a freelance studio on the 57th street in Manhattan. He had acquired considerable fame and recognition among architects and advertisers of building products to consistently receive special commissions for rendering a number of public and private architectural projects.

Some of the notable freelance work done by Kautzky includes an extended series of renderings for the greenhouses manufacturing firm Lord & Burnham, a series of Christmas cards depicting houses in and around Irvington-on-Hudson also for Lord & Burnham, and renderings of buildings for the Overhead Door Corporation of Indiana. He also worked on the designs of doorways, staircases, railings, and other items of architectural millwork for the advertisements of Hussey, Williams Company.

Additionally, he was commissioned by the Manufacturers Association of New Jersey to create a pencil delineation of their building. Additionally, he was retained by consulting engineers Parsons, Brinckerhoff, Hall and Macdonald to work on a number of designs for architectural developments in New York, including the North Portal of the First Avenue tunnel at the United Nations site, the view looking west down 48th street just after crossing the North Portal of the tunnel, a proposed bridge spanning 42nd street at Tudor City, among other projects.

#### The calendar of 1953

A couple of years before his demise. the Ketterlinus Lithographic Manufacturing Company gave Kautzky a special commission to paint twelve natural landscapes from across the America to be reproduced on their large 1953 calendar. He was asked to paint the different seasons typical of 12 different parts of the country, one for each month.

The amount paid to him was enough to cover the extensive journey, including all the travel costs for both him and his wife, and to compensate him for the reproduction rights of his paintings. Kautzky planned the trip with Ruth, his wife, and departed for the south and west in his Buick.

It took them several months to complete the journey of almost ten thousand miles. They covered areas in Pennsylvania, Florida, the Carolinas, Louisiana, Kansas, California, Oregon, Colorado, other states in between, and some of his personal favorite places in New England. Kautzky would look for landscapes that appealed to him, and then stop there for sketching and painting.

He spent another few months to finish his paintings, working through his notes, after returning to New York. The calendar was a major success for the company and sold several thousand copies, making Kautzky's work with watercolors and nature known in households across America.

### Teacher and instructor

Kautzky wanted to impart unto others the knowledge he had gained from years of experimentation, study, and effort. To this end, he undertook individual and class instruction of the fine points of technique involved in painting and drawing. As opportunity presented, in the 1930s and onward, he began teaching at the Pratt University in New York, the University of Pennsylvania, New York University, and the University of Toronto. It led to the penmanship of four instructional books on pencil drawing, and watercolor and oil paintings.

## Exhibitions and competitions

Kautzky submitted his designs, renderings, and artwork for several exhibitions and competitions. The Municipal Civil Service Commission held an examination for Architectural Renderers in 1934. The participants had to draw the Triborough Bridge, about to be built back then, and Kautzky's design received 100% marks.

In 1935, the architectural magazine Pencil Points, later called Progressive Architecture, began a monthly pencil sketch competition. Kautzky submitted three drawings and won the first prize. The editor of the magazine, Ken Reid, invited him to be the subject of a feature article for the November 1936 issue. The article covered his story, displayed a number of his drawings and renderings, and closed with the following line: *"But watch his career as a watercolorist."* Kautzky had not begun to seriously work on watercolor painting at this point, but he had submitted a few of his initial artworks for the magazine article. Thereafter, he became good friends with Reid, and his work was frequently published in the future editions of the magazine.

## Publications

Kautzky worked on and published four books on pencil drawing and watercolors in his life. After meeting Reid, the editor of Pencil Points, the two became good friends and eventually collaborated on three books: *Pencil Broadsides* (1940), *Pencil Pictures* (1947), and *Ways with Watercolor* (1947). Kautzky provided the illustrations, drawings, paintings, and the corresponding technical information, while Reid wrote the text for the books. For the fourth book, *Painting Trees and Landscapes in Watercolor* (1952), he collaborated with Norman Kent, editor of The American Artist, as Reid had left Pencil Points and was occupied elsewhere. Kautzky's books were used for instruction in teaching during his lifetime and are still extensively used by students of watercolor painting and pencil drawing.

## Personal life

Kautzy eventually become conversant in the English language and began socializing with his contemporaries soon after he arrived in New York. In 1925, he met and courted Ruth Carle, whom he married in the same year a week before Christmas at the Little Church Around the Corner. The couple went on a trip to Europe for their honeymoon.

### Home in Rockport

In 1941, Kautzky found a place to build a summer house for himself and his family in Rockport, Massachusetts. Here, he could enjoy proximity to the sea and paint uninterruptedly away from the distractions of his New York studio, The town had schools for young artists, held many public art exhibits, and gave him the opportunity to meet several other notable artists who worked in the vicinity.

He bought a piece of land, enough to build a small cottage, on the outskirts of the town and right by the rocky shore of Cape Ann. He worked himself on the design and construction of the house, where he eventually built his personal art studio and a guest room. Kautzky cut and installed the interior pine paneling and trim, sandpapered everything to smoothness, and proofed his cottage against weather and rodents. He used to proudly exclaim to his guests: *"No mouse shall get in Kautzky's house."*

He ensured that all the rooms in his Rockport cottage would have a view of the open sea. His studio windows and terrace opened out to the sea and the sky, where he spent many hours relaxing, walking, studying nature, and painting.

After moving to Rockport, Kautzky and his wife traveled each year in late fall or early winter for a few weeks to northern New England, especially Vermont, where they would meet friends and he would paint the autumn landscapes. After this trip, they would return to their Yonkers dwelling from which he commuted every day to his studio in Manhattan to work on his commercial projects.

Each year, Kautzky wanted to make enough money during his time in Yonkers to cover his expenses for the rest of the year and provide an additional sum for his family back in Hungary.

### Death

In 1953, Kautzky suffered from a month long illness at the end of which he unexpectedly pass away, aged 56.

# David Sankoff

**David Sankoff** (born December 31, 1942) is a Canadian mathematician, bioinformatician, computer scientist and linguist. He holds the Canada Research Chair in Mathematical Genomics in the Mathematics and Statistics Department at the University of Ottawa, and is cross-appointed to the Biology Department and the School of Information Technology and Engineering. He was founding editor of the scientific journal *Language Variation and Change* (Cambridge) and serves on the editorial boards of a number of bioinformatics, computational biology and linguistics journals. Sankoff is best known for his pioneering contributions in computational linguistics and computational genomics. He is considered to be one of the founders of bioinformatics.

In Pavel Pevzner's words, "Michael Waterman and David Sankoff are responsible for transforming bioinformatics from a ‘stamp collection' of ill-defined problems into a rigorous discipline with important biological applications."

## Education

Sankoff published his first paper in 1963 while he was an undergraduate student in Mathematics at McGill University. Starting with his doctoral research, he developed mathematical formulations to a number of pivotal concepts in socio- and historical linguistics, including glottochronology, variable rules analysis (with Henrietta Cedergren), the linguistic marketplace and code switching.

## Career and research

After completing his Ph.D. in Mathematics, Sankoff began his academic career at the University of Montreal in 1969. In 1971, Sankoff became interested in molecular sequence comparison and devised the first quadratic-time variant of the Needleman–Wunsch algorithm for pairwise sequence alignment. In 1973, Sankoff and Robert Cedergren developed a joint estimation method for phylogeny and multiple sequence alignment of 5S ribosomal RNA, laying the algorithmic foundations of comparative genomics. In 1975, Sankoff and Václav Chvátal studied the behavior of the longest common subsequence problem on random inputs; the constants of proportionality arising in this study have come to be known as the Chvátal–Sankoff constants. In 1980, Robert Cedergen and David Sankoff created the first research group in bioinformatics at the University of Montreal. Sankoff's work in bioinformatics addresses RNA secondary structure, genome rearrangements, sequence alignment, genome evolution and phylogenetics.

title: David Santiago

abstract: David Santiago is a Republican politician from Florida. He served one term on the Deltona City Commission from 2003 to 2007 and four terms in the Florida House of Representatives from 2012 to 2020, representing the 27th District, which includes southern Volusia County.

# David Santiago

**David Santiago** (born December 14, 1970) is a Republican politician from Florida. He served one term on the Deltona City Commission from 2003 to 2007 and four terms in the Florida House of Representatives from 2012 to 2020, representing the 27th District, which includes southern Volusia County.

## History

Santiago was born in Dover, New Jersey, and joined the United States Army Reserve after graduating from Brentwood High School in Brentwood, New York. He was honorably discharged eight years later. Santiago moved to the state of Florida in 1991 after his father-in-law gave him a house in Deltona, Florida as a wedding gift. Following his move, Santiago worked in insurance and real estate, and served on the Deltona, Florida City Commission from 2003 to 2007.

## Deltona City Commission

Santiago served as a city commissioner of District 2 and vice mayor in the city of Deltona. In 2010 incumbent mayor Dennis Mulder decided not to seek reelection. Santiago ran against two opponents in the primaries (Robert Desmond and former mayor John Masiarcyzk Sr.). Santiago was defeated by Masiarcyzk in the general election with Masiarczyk receiving 58.52% of votes and Santiago 41.48%.

## Florida House of Representatives

In 2012, the legislative districts were redrawn, and incumbent State Representative Dorothy Hukill was unable to seek re-election, creating an open seat in the 27th District, which stretches from Oak Hill to DeBary. Santiago ran in the open seat and faced George Trovato in the Republican primary, whom he easily defeated with 65% of the vote. In the general election, Santiago was initially set to face Dennis Mulder, the Democratic nominee and the former Mayor of Deltona. The Florida Democratic Party was targeting the district because it has a substantial registration advantage, but in August, Mulder abruptly dropped out of the race, citing his son's deteriorating health. The Volusia County Democratic Party was forced to find a replacement, eventually voting to nominate their Chairman, Phil Giorno, who previously served as a member of the Volusia County Council, over DeBary Mayor Bob Garcia and former congressional candidate Nicholas Ruiz. Santiago declared, "The race hasn't changed. My campaign has never been about my opponent. It's about getting Florida back on track." Ultimately, Santiago was elected over Giorno, winning his first term in the legislature with 55% of the votes to Giorno's 45%.

Santiago was term-limited from the House in 2020, after serving four terms.

# Tell es-Sawwan

**Tell es-Sawwan** is an important Samarran period archaeological site in Saladin Province, Iraq. It is located 110 kilometres (68 mi) north of Baghdad, and south of Samarra. It lies on a 12 meter high cliff overlooking the Tigris River.

The site is a primarily Ubaid, Hassuna, and Samarra culture occupation with some later Babylonian graves. It is considered the type site for the Samarran culture.

## History

The inhabitants of Tell es-Sawwan were farmers who used irrigation from the Tigris to support their crops, as rainfall was unreliable. They used stone and flint tools similar to those of the Hassuna culture. Their prosperity, probably based on the dependability of irrigated crops, is evidenced by the presence of fine Samarran ware and beautiful, translucent marble vessels.

Underfloor graves of adults and children contained terracotta and alabaster statuettes of women and men, in various poses; some of these had the eyes and pointed heads typical of the Ubaid period.

## Archaeology

Tell es-Sawwan is an oval mound 350 metres (1,150 ft) long by 150 metres (490 ft) wide with a maximum height of 3.5 metres (11 ft). It consists of three tells, labeled A, B, and C aligned from north to south. Some of the western portion of the site has been lost to river erosion. The main mound was surrounded by a three-meter defensive ditch and a strong mudbrick wall. The neolithic village, on mounds B and C, consisted of large mudbrick houses and other buildings thought to be granaries. There were five occupation layers. Among the finds were 77 neolithic clay tokens. A number of clay sling bullets were also found, by a ditch and wall the excavators termed defensive in nature. The ditch was radiocarbon dated to 5730 ± 75 B.C.

Tell es-Sawwan was first noted by Ernst Herzfeld in 1930 while working at Samarra. The site was excavated by a team from the Iraqi Directorate General of Antiquities in seven seasons between 1964 and 1971. The first, third, and fourth seasons were directed by Behnam Abu Al-Soof, the second season by Khalid Ahmad Al-a'dami and the sixth and seventh season by Walid Yasin. Donny George Youkana worked briefly at the site in 1985. In 1988 and 1989 further excavations were conducted by C. Breniquet for the Delegation Archeologique Francaise en IraK.

# David Olifard

**Sir David Olifard** (c.1113/1117 – c. 1170) was the first recorded Justiciar (of the Lothians), governing the southern half of Scotland south of the rivers Forth and Clyde (excluding Galloway). Olifard was godson to King David I of Scotland, whose life he saved at the Rout of Winchester in 1141. Olifard is the first known chief of Clan Oliphant today.

## Personal life

The Olifards held their lands in England from the Earls of Northampton and Huntingdon. In 1113, King David I of Scotland married Maud, Countess of Huntingdon, widow of Simon de St. Liz. Thus King David held the earldoms during the lifetime of his wife. David Olifard was godson of his namesake, the current earl, King David I of Scotland. Olifard must therefore have been born after 1113 (and before 1117 – see below).

Olifard's wife is unknown but there is a clue: Olifard granted to the monks of Jedburgh the "tenths" of the mill of Crailing and Berengerias de Engein granted the same monks a mark of silver from the mill of Crailing. Both these grants were confirmed by David I. Whether Berengerius was a father-in-law or brother-in-law to Olifard, we do not know. To have an interest in the mill of Crailing, which Olifard owned, coupled with the fact that Berengerius also made his donation to the same monks to whom Olifard made his donation, suggests that the two men were related. Members of the de Engain family held estates in Huntingdonshire and Northamptonshire.

Olifard had four sons:

and at least one unnamed daughter:

* Filia David de Olifard of Bothwell, who married William de Moravia (Murray) who later became the first Murray to occupy the lands encompassing the Bothwell Barony. William was son of William de Moravia, son of Freskin.

## The Olifard's land ownings in England

The Olifards were tenants in demesne at Lilford. In 1086 it was held by a Walter (no surname given). The first mention of the name Olifard in connection with Lilford is William Olifard (circa 1130, who is probably Olifard's father. This William may have been the son of the afore mentioned Walter) "William Olifardus reddit conjuncture de x mercis argenti for placito terre de Lillingstan." There is no record connecting David Olifard with Lilford although his heirs held the lands following after William Olifard, his brother. Olifard's mother was quoted as Muriel.

Oakington in Cambridge was held in 1086 by Roger and, between 1090 and 1108, there was in the county, a Roger Olifard, the first with the Olifard surname on record (either this Roger or the Walter at Lilford is probably David Olifard's grandfather). Oakington was considered a dependency of Lilford and held by David Olifard's brothers and then latterly by his own heirs. The same Roger held the manor of Over, part of which later became the manor of Gavelock. Like Lilford, Over (as was Gavelock) was held by David Olifard's family before it devolved to his heirs.

## Sawtry in Huntingdon

David Olifard had a fief of Sawtry from Henry of Scotland (the son of Olifard's godfather, King David I of Scotland) who held it as the Earl of Huntingdon from the crown. To have been given Sawtry must have been something of an honour as "Countess Judith 'especially loved and frequented,' \[the manor of Sawtry\]" the lands were "freed by William I, as a mark of favour to her, from all dues to the Crown, including murdrum and danegeld,". During the civil war between King Stephen and the Empress Matilda, both Henry of Scotland and King David I of Scotland supported the Empress Matilda. This resulted in King Stephen confiscating the earldom in 1138 from Henry of Scotland and giving it to one of his supporters, Simon de Senlis II. This would have been unpopular with Olifard but nevertheless he would have been compelled to follow Simon de Senlis into battle. In 1141 Olifard was fighting on the winning side against Empress Matilda. On seeing that his godfather was in danger of being captured, Olifard abandoned Stephen's army and rescued King David I of Scotland.

Since there is no record of any other Olifards at Sawtry prior to David, it would appear that these lands had been granted to Olifard at the instigation of his godfather. The date of Henry of Scotland's forfeiture of the Earldom of Huntingdon is helpful, since Olifard would most likely have been granted the fiefdom of Sawtry once he had reached his majority. Olifard would have received the lands prior to the forfeiture in 1138 and thus was born no later than 1117 and probably earlier.

Simon de Senlis II, in an act designed to prevent Olifard from ever returning to Sawtry, founded the Cistercian monastery of Sawtry Abbey on Olifard's lands in 1147. William Olifard is a witness to this foundation charter. Sawtry is the only known property to have been held by David Olifard in England.

The nearest public house to the site of the ruins of Sawtry Abbey, in a village called Woodwalton is called "The Elephant and Castle" although nobody knows why. In 1391 Sawtry Abbey was granted a messuage and one carucate of land in Woodwalton. It could be a pun on Olifard and their residence.

In the 12th century when Olifard held Sawtry, it was called "Saltreia" or "Saltreaim".

## Arrival in Scotland

When Olifard arrived in Scotland, he did so as a baron of the highest status, being the same level as the most favoured newcomers into Scotland of the Anglo/Norman and Anglo/Flemish nobility.

## Career in Scotland

Olifard first appears in a Royal charter in Scotland in 1144. For the next 26 years he features regularly as a witness in Royal charters in King Malcolm IV's reign but does not appear to be of outstanding importance before 1165. From that year until 1170 Olifard features at the most eminent level in the charters of the kings (Malcolm and William I). Thereafter Olifard disappears from record, suggesting that he died in 1170. Although Olifard appears in at least ten charters as "Justiciar", there is no document stating that he is Justiciar of the Lothians. This is also true for every Justiciar of the Lothians another decade after he ceased to be Justiciar, It was not until well into his son's (Sir Walter Olifard) tenure as Justiciar, that the complete style appears. Just as Sir David is the first Justiciar on record, so his son, Sir Walter Olifard is the first Justiciar of the Lothians on record to be styled as "of the Lothians". It should also be noted that at the time of Sir David Olifard, Northumbria and Cumbria were also part of Southern Scotland.

## The Hospital of Soutra

The Hospital of Soutra, also known as "Domus de Soltre" was the largest hospital in Scotland. It was founded in 1164 by King Malcolm IV. The name Soltre or Soutra is similar to the name of Olifard's old estate of Sawtry or Saltreia in Huntingdon, so much so that historians have confused the two.

It is perhaps no coincidence that the first charter (signed between 1153 and 1170) after the hospital's foundation is one from David Olifard and that he also granted the hospital one thrave of corn in Autumn from every carucate in his domain. Olifard's seal was appended to this charter, showing three crescents. This is the earliest example of the Oliphant arms recorded.

By 1271, a dispute had arisen between the monks at the Hospital and the inhabitants of Crailing (lands which had been owned by Olifard and his descendants). It was eventually settled in favour of the monks.

## Olifard's landownings in Scotland

Soon after Olifard came to Scotland, he received the lands of Smailholm and also Crailing, both in Roxburghshire. In the reign of King Malcolm IV, he was granted the lands between the North and South Calder Waters (rivers), these lands formed the core of the great barony of Bothwell. These lands were given to Olifard by the King in lieu of his lands at Sawtry in Northamptonshire. Olifard lands around Bothwell extended far beyond the Calder Waters and included the barony (and lands) of Drumsergard (which changed its name to Cambuslang in the 17th century)

## Critical reception

In its review of the film, The Times of India rated the film 2/5 and commented that: "Director Karunakaran made a splash in Tollywood as a love story writer-filmmaker with Tholi Prema. Twenty years later, however, he still seems to be stuck with a 'formula' of cinema that worked in the 1990s. In 2018, all you get is a lifeless love story. As an audience, you want a bit more than that."

123 Telugu rated the film 2.75/5 and considered that: "Tej I Love You is the same old love story which Karunakaran has made many a time in the past. There is nothing new which this film showcases. Bad songs, lack of interesting romance and forced elements sidetrack the film."

Hans India rated the film 2.25/5 and remarked that: "Rather than focusing on the main plot, the makers unnecessarily included a lot of elements in the movie. The first half completely is about the teasing game between the hero and heroine and the second half is all about how hero wins back his love."

Greatandhra rated 2.5/5 and wrote, "is an outdated romantic drama that tests the patience to the maximum. It lacks fresh ideas."

# Temple in antis

The **temple in antis** is an architectural design for temples in Syria and other parts of the Levant starting in the Early Bronze Age (3500-3000 B.C.E.) and persisting until the Iron Age (1000-586 BCE). The design has a porch formed by extensions, or antae, of the side walls at each side.

Arriving from Northern Syria whether from Assyrian or Amorite diffusion, the temples share similar characteristics with some home designs from Anatolia in modern Turkey. Most of the temples follow similar design plans making it easy to track their spread across the Levant. These temples give a glimpse into the religious practices and urbanization that took place in the Levant during the Bronze and Iron Age.

Some examples of some temples in Antis include Solomon's Temple, the sanctuary of Tell Al-Rawda, and Ain Dara.

## Design

With a widespread cultural community sharing and integrating building designs throughout the near east, many of the designs, especially the Ante portion of the temple in Antis, are seen. G. R. H. Wright even noted that looking at plans alone one can misinterpret a storage room for a temple. The plans are simple, uniform, and segmented into three parts Having an entrance, vestibule, cult room (a long rectangular room with a religious icon as the focus), and the Holy of Holies, a hidden part of the temple placed in the back of the temple from the general public. Only a few were allowed in. The temples were set apart from the rest of the city with an enclosure surrounding them and most seem to have been designed to fit the city plan. Moreover, it seems that the temples were constructed on the sites of previous temples. Constructed from mud bricks, laid on a foundation of rubble stones and stone blocks. Evidence from Tell Rawada also suggests a porch with columns between the ante and a facade on the outer wall. The shape of the temple is based on the diameters of the cult room, with regional variations in size and shape. Most of the Temples in Syrian and the Levant had their entrances face towards the sunrise, and had an open area or courtyard in front. The opening of the temple and the cult focus/deity effigy would be aligned together, with the entrance being on one of the short sides and having a wide square cult room.

The cult room would be the main room of worship, wooden dividers would help break the room up into sections. There is evidence that there many have been a second story due to the thickness of the walls and presence of stairs at some sites.

## Religious practices

The temples in the Levant were not just public places of worship, they were the abodes of the gods. Mud brick pedestals would be set in the cult room or Holy of Holies with the images of that temple's patron deity. Offerings were left on platforms in the cult room, and evidence shows that rituals were performed in the vestibule. With varying designs and artifacts found it is hard to make a full picture of religious practices without written documentation, which unlike the rest of the region is not as prevalent in the Levant.

## Temples

### Solomon's temple

Solomon's temple, as recorded in the Hebrew Bible, was the first temple in Jerusalem. Solomon, King of Judea and Israel, built the temple and dedicated it to Yahweh. During the time before it was sacked by King Nebuchadnezzar II in 587 BCE, the temple was home to many religious ceremonies and patron deities as time progressed. Since the remains of the ancient temple now reside beneath the Dome of the Rock any archaeological dig is currently unlikely.

#### Design

##### Porch (ulam)

As in most temples in antis the Porch faces towards the rising sun and acts as an entrance to the temple. The width of Porch and temple were the same, both being 20 cubits, and the depth of the porch was 10 cubits.

##### Main hall (Hekal/ cella)

The main hall or Hekal was 40 cubits long According to the bible this room walls were covered in carved cedar murals with gold inlay. The main hall was the home to many important relics to the Israelites such as the Menorah.

##### Holy of Holies (Debir)

The holiest part of the temple which was said to house the Ark of the Covenant. 20 cubits long and half the height of the main hall suggesting that it was reached by going upstairs. Gold and cedar adorned the room and it was regarded as the home of Yahweh, or the patron deity at the time.

### Temple at Ain Dara

Located in Northern Syria, and built during the late Bronze Age (1300 BC until 740 BC), predating Solomon's temple. It was built in a three part style with a foundation of limestone and basalt, but the temple itself would have been mudbrick and wood. Sandstone marks the borders of where the courtyard would have been, leading up to the porch. The open-air porch is marked by two pillars, and is not as embedded into the temple's face as others of its design. The vestibule to the main room is almost square, and the ante on the outer wall is slightly wider than the rest of the wall creating the porch. Carved into the floor between the porch and main hall are several feet, the meaning is debatable, but probably marks the deities path into the temple. The main hall has an altar on the back wall, where the temple deity would have been placed. The walls of the main room are engraved with lions and other artwork. At the back of the temple there is a hall full of carved stelae with pictures of religious practices and royalty of the time.

### Al-Rawda

Located on the Syrian steppe, Al-Rawda is an archeological site or tell with an abundance of dwellings and temples. The layout of the site seems to suggest that the town was planned before construction. At the northeast of the site there is a large religious fortification. There seems to be multiple temples at the site, One large temple in antis connected to a smaller one and evidence of more that have yet to be excavated. Reaching 60m in front of the temple there is an enclosure that houses the courtyard and other buildings related to the temples. The largest temple at the site seems to be built on top of two previous temples.

# Dean Court, Oxfordshire

**Dean Court** is a suburb 2 miles (3.2 km) west of the centre of Oxford, England. Dean Court was part of Berkshire until the 1974 local government boundary changes transferred it to Oxfordshire.

## History

The area was the site of a medieval grange of Abingdon Abbey, excavated in the 1970s and 1980s. Dean Court was first mentioned in the 14th century under the name of *"La Dene"*. The name reflects its location between Wytham Hill and Cumnor Hill: the Old English *denu* is a word used for long narrow valleys with moderately steep gradients on either side. In 1538 there was a reference to *"the rectory of Dencourt"*. However there is no later record of the church which was evidently in the hamlet during the Middle Ages.

A map of 1761 shows Dean Court as a small hamlet on the road from Oxford to Eynsham, and so it remained until after the Second World War.

Development of the area started in the early 1950s with a housing estate called Pinnocks Way. In 1969 Deanfield Road, Broad Close and Owlington Close were built north of Eynsham Road by Wimpey Homes. The Orchard Road estate (originally marketed as "The Hawthornes") was built by Broseley Estates Limited and Costain in 1983 and later in 1985 houses were added by Thameway and Macleans. The Fogwell Road estate was built in 1986.

Dean Court is part of the parish of Cumnor, and until the 20th century parishioners worshipped 1.5 miles (2.4 km) away at the Church of England parish church of Saint Michael, Cumnor. There is now the church of Saint Andrew, Dean Court that was built as a chapel of ease.

# Deanery High School

The **Deanery Church of England High School and Sixth Form College** is a coeducational secondary school and sixth form located in Wigan, Greater Manchester, England. It is a Church of England voluntary aided school.

The school's campus is located near the town centre, very close to Wigan bus station and the main Royal Mail sorting office.

## History

The school opened in 1971 as a successor to All Saints School, which was founded in 1931. It was previously housed mainly in former All Saints buildings; however, starting in summer 2015 most of these old buildings were demolished in order to make way for a new £20 million build, funded under the Government's Priority Schools' Building Programme (PSBP). The classrooms, offices and other facilities once housed in the now demolished buildings were relocated into temporary buildings at the rear of the school near its all-weather pitch, with the first new buildings to be occupied in September 2017, after which the rest of the old buildings were to be demolished. The school's sports hall was also renovated, with the classrooms in that building, formerly used for English, now housing a new music department, featuring two larger classrooms, a recording studio, an office for the heads of the performing arts and PE departments and a staff work room for the two departments.

## Academics

The Deanery High School has a 6th Form College, offering A-Levels as well as Level 2 and 3 BTEC courses. Until 2017, the school offered Latin at GCSE level; it had previously also been an A-Level subject.

The 2022 OFSTED report said the school is "good".
