Raymond-Roger Trencavel (1184-1209)

Aware that the Crusaders were on the way, Raymond-Roger reconsidered his position and joined them en route to offer his submission too, but it was rejected. (If he joined them as well, his lands would be protected and there would be no-where for the Crusaders to destroy and pillage - which is why Arnaud Amaury rejected the offer.) Raymond-Roger returned to Carcassonne, ordering Béziers to prepare for action on his way. He sent all Jews away to safety, knowing that the Catholic army would kill them if they ever got hold of them. This was a precaution as no-one expected Béziers to fall, and certainly not for a long time. Everyone had known that the Jews would have been slaughtered if the town fell, but not that the Crusaders would massacre everybody they found, Catholics included, if they took the town, as they did on 22nd of July 1208. Still under the command of their leader Arnaud Amaury Abbot of Cîteaux, appointed by Pope Innocent III, the Crusaders now turned towards Carcassonne. 

Ancient Amber Trade

Valued both for its appearance and for its property of generating static electricity when rubbed, being known to the Greeks as elektron. Although occurring in small quantities in association with lignite deposits in several parts of Europe (e.g., Romania, Sicily), its principal source was the Baltic area, where it occurs in abundance as beach pebbles eroded from Oligocene deposits containing remains of the pine tree Pinus succinifera. The chief concentrations are in western Jutland (Denmark) and around the mouth of the Vistula (Poland) and along the eastern Baltic coasts, although it can be carried by wave action as far as the coasts of eastern England. 

Angkor Wat

Angkor Wat (or Angkor Vat) (Khmer: អង្គរវត្ត) is a Hindu temple 1145-1150AD complex at Angkor, Cambodia, built for the king Suryavarman II.

In the 20th century the French began restoration of the Batwan temple... the temple is disasembled and the stones are labeled for re-assembly when in 1975 the Cambodian Holocaust of Poll Pot and the Khmer Rouge interrupts the restoration. Of the thousands that worked on the restoration with all were killed but two. Lost were the records for how to put back the temple, and enormous jig saw puzzle left on the jungle floor.
