All of us owe a debt of gratitude to
scholars who have come before us. I would like to thank my thesis
advisor, Phil Porter, my major professor, Fred Lukermann, Bill
Cunningham, Ward Barrett and colleagues, Bill Lynn and Paul Phifer for
their advice. David Elliot has been a stalwart supporter of these
efforts.
Maps
come from many sources. There are a number of maps from Tony Belmonte's
Historical Atlas of Europe and the Middle East. Unfortunately Tony has
disappeared from the web and I have not been able to track him down for
permissions. My copies of Belmone's maps were graciously provide by Lynn
Nelson, professor emeritus of the University of Kansas.
Right-clicking and checking properties will
show the sources of many objects.
