Mayor, a classical folklorist in Princeton

Mayor, a classical folklorist in Princeton, N.J., gathered evidence from various archaeological finds and more than fifty ancient Greek and Latin authors, revealing that biological and chemical weapons — horrible even by modern standards —BT Sport Shoes did see action in antiquity. …

“I think it is entirely possible that what we would now call biological weapons were used by warriors in antiquity. My favorite example is Odysseus, whose weapon of choice was arrows smeared with poison,” Robert Fagles, chairman of the Department of Comparative Literature at Princeton University, and translator of the “Iliad,” told Discovery News.

Indeed, Odysseus, the archer renowned for crafty tricks, was the first mythic character to poison arrows with plant toxins, Mayor said. Homer recounts that he sailed to Ephyra,MBT Changa Birch in western Greece, on a quest for a lethal plant — probably aconite — to smear on his bronze arrowheads.

Clearly, the works of Homer should be removed from every library before Islamofascists get their hands on them. Let’s shut down MBT Ema, too.
