Story
The ancient Greeks used a number of forms of divination to determine the future and seek advice from the gods as to which actions they should take in any given situation. The most popular of these ways to consult the Gods was through a visit to an oracle - usually a person - at a fixed shrine. The oldest of these Greek sites was at Dodona in Epirus, and while it continued to be a major oracle for the Greek world through antiquity, it was quickly overtaken by the oracle at Delphi as the most consulted by kings, politicians, and ordinary Greeks alike.

Story
In 353 BCE, when King Mausolus of Halicarnassus passed away, his sister and queen Artemisia was inconsolable, but she found a way to honor him through finishing a project that they had started together during his life: the construction of a mausoleum that was so marvelous it would later be considered one of the Seven Wonders of the World.

Story
Dankzij goed generaalschap, een solide leger en een flinke dosis geluk wist de Macedonische koning Alexander de Grote tussen 334 en 323 v.Chr. het oppermachtige Perzische Rijk te onderwerpen. Hierdoor kon de Griekse cultuur zich verspreiden naar Egypte, Babylonië, Iran, Centraal-Azië en de vallei van de Indus. Jona Lendering laat zien hoe het Perzische Rijk in conflict raakt met Macedonië. Vervolgens behandelt hij Alexanders troonbestijging, de consolidatie van zijn macht in Europa en de inval in Azië.
