Common errors about Antiquity

[Jona Lendering]

People tend to create composite characters by blending two people into a single man ... Maybe this tendency to synthesize deserves it's own chapter in the book.

Or attribute the acts of a lesser-known man to a better-known man, like saying that Constantine ended the persecution of Christians (it was Galerius). I think it is called "epic concentration", and I will deal with it in the Constantine chapter.

Meanwhile, an English version of error #2 is online: the Ark rests on a mountain named Ararat. That's not what the Bible says, as you can read here.
