The Venetians then wanted st marks body, so they found one there and took it, that’s why it’s believed that the body of st Mark in the church of saint mark of Venice, might actually be that of great Alexander. Historians said to do DNA tests , but the church refuses to open the coffin.

I don't know why, but I just find it fascinating to know where these people are buried. Their names are forever recorded in the history books, their deeds are still remembered hundreds, even thousands of years after their demise. Their stories have impressed, their achievements have inspired and their crimes have horrified many generations past and will continue to do so for many people in the future. They left their mark in life more than anyone else, and some of them have changed the world in such a profound way that they could almost be considered mythical beings, yet they were very much real and alive at one point...men and women, each with their own flaws. And every single one of them: generals, philosophers, kings, emperors, conquerors were just as human as any of us, just as mortal. To me, their resting places are the ultimate symbol and proof of all that: a representation of not just their mortality, but also their humanity and their very existence.

Even some of Alexander's generals were horrified at his brutality against the innocent. A homicidal mass killer if ever there was one, yet history calls him "great". Perhaps Brutus and his family were more noble than Gaius Julius Caesar. Didn't they depose one of the Tarquins and found the Republic. As to other Roman Emperors, well, I haven't thought about them in a very long time. I have a copy of Momsen and "The Meditations" around here somewhere. But some were hard-working and benign. Others started out well but became tyrants (lead or other heavy metal poisoning?). "Bootsie" comes to mind. Pet rocks? Burnt temples but completed Flavian Arena? Single years with 5-6 emperors? Many emperors who never even saw Rome or worse, poor Valerian comes to mind. In fact the list of Roman Emperors who, with certainty, had natural deaths seems relatively short. Then there was the Christian conversion by Constantine the Great. Didn't he murder his co-emperor and his son and maybe his wife? I don't quite remember. The pagan gods couldn't forgive him but the Christian god would. Oh, well, that was a long time ago. Maybe we'll do better in the future. Stay well.

The potatoes on the grave of Frederick the Great is an awesome story. To help feed his people, he decided to use potatoes, which were unknown to his people at the time. But looking so bad, and not being in the Bible, the people refused to plant or use them. So Fred used a little reverse psychology, declared the potato a "royal vegetable", and had his own potato fields guarded. But he instructed the guards to "look the other way" if peasants tried to steal them. The peasants figured the potatoes must be a great food source if they had to be guarded, stole a number of plants, planted them in their own fields, and the rest is history! to honor Frederick's Solomon like wits , it's now traditional to leave potatoes on his grave.

When the Crusaders sacked Constantinople they entered the Church of the Holy Apostles and started indiscriminately looting anything they could get their hands on. One Crusader, according to Choniates found Justinian's sarcophagus and smashed it open. Inside he found Justinian's body, suprisingly intact, he still retained his hair, skin and crown. The Crusader tried to rip the crown off of Justinian's head, but his skeleton showed resistance, the Crusader eventually managed to pull the crown off along with much of Justinian's hair. What happened after that is unknown, but it is pretty fair to assume it was further ransacked, by the time the Ottomans took the city, Justinian's body had likely been destroyed to the point it couldn't be identified.

Ozymandias: "I met a traveller from an antique land, Who said-“Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand, Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown, And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed; And on the pedestal, these words appear: My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings; Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair! Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away.” BY PERCY BYSSHE SHELLEY

Unfortunatly, all the French kings bodies have been removed from Saint Denis during French Revolution. However, this most impressive place, situated in a very popular and poor town near Paris, remains, to me, one of the main French soul and history sites. When you enter the middle ages crypt, when you see all these broke graves, when your mind travels in the beginning of History, you feel that you are part of one nation, one state, which ancient generations have built long time before, and which still exist now. A chain of which you are one of the links.

I was at Grant's Tomb three days ago. Not many even know it's there. One of the most serene and empty places in the city. I had gone there to sit and reflect for many years. Saturday was the first time I ever saw the door open. I went in and told this to the guard behind the desk. She explained that they had had "staffing problems, and still do." I have traveled all over Europe and seen the great monuments to the fathers of ancient nations. The Tomb of Ulysses S. Grant (and his wife) stood toe to toe with the most moving and astoundingly beautiful memorial structures I have ever seen in my life. As a nation with such an incomparably brief history, one which seems to be doubted, and forgotten more and more every day, seeing that tomb brought me to tears.
