Herodotus: Narrator, Scientist, Historian
Tumblr media
“Recently the importance for Herodotus' work of contemporary medical and sophistic thought and techniques of argument has been widely recognised, as long had been his dependence on and difference from earlier geographical and ethnographic writing. This volume focuses on the place of these interests in his investigatory techniques and sets them alongside his many narrative skills, from superficially traditonal battle narrative and reworking of Greek or non-Greek traditions that border on myth to the structuring of narrative by highlighting the life of objects, and addresses such fundamental issues as how he chooses between competing explanations and how far he valued truth. The book tackles many of the basic issues that confront any attempt to understand Herodotus' work.”
Editor: Ewen Bowie
Contributors:  John Marincola, Angus Bowie, K. Scarlett Kingsley, P. J. Finglas, Ioannis M. Konstantakos, Gregory Nagy, Vasiliki Zali, Reinhold Bichler, Nikolay P. Grintser, Paul Demont, Christopher Pelling, Smaro Nikolaidou-Arabatzi, Maria G. Xanthou, Rosalind Thomas

Top 10 Tips For Beginning 퍼스트카지노 Players - Part 1 - with Casino Gambling Expert Steve Bourie #5332
It is more than likely the book that Arrco published was for their own deck. Parker Brothers created a fifth-suit Bridge deck in 1938 called Castle Bridge, in which the fifth suit of Castles looked like a Rook chess piece and was colored green. The process I simple, and you do not have to memorize the deck or card that has been played. The designs on modern Mahjong tiles likely evolved from those earliest playing cards. If you place the 5+1 Bonus side bet you win if your five cards plus the dealer’s first face up card make a five-card poker hand of a Three of a Kind or better.To place this bet the player must first place the Ante bet. The player’s decision to ‘Call’ or ‘Fold’ does not affect the 5+1 Bonus bet.
There is an optional $2 bet you make at the same time you place your Ante. This qualifies you for the progressive jackpot.  If your hand is a Flush, Full House, Four of a Kind, Straight Flush or Royal Flush you may win large bonuses. English courtier examples: King, Queen, Knave (Jack). Prints from deck describing the Popish Plots of 1679 (Faithorne, 1684). (Guest, Vol. 3) Right: French courtier examples from German card deck: Dame, Valet (Roi not pictured). (Johann Christoph Albrecht, artist, Nürnberg, 1769). (Guest, Vol. 2) After all players have either folded or bet, the Dealer displays the House hand. To continue (qualify), the Dealer must have at least an Ace and King. If not, all Ante wagers are paid at even money, and all other bets are considered inactive. The earliest records of playing cards in Europe is believed by some researchers to be a ban on card games in the city of Berne in 1367, although this source is questionable.
Players may wager money against each other (playing "street craps") or a bank (playing "casino craps", also known as "table craps", or often just "craps"). http://query.nytimes.com/search/sitesearch/?action=click&contentCollection&region=TopBar&WT.nav=searchWidget&module=SearchSubmit&pgtype=Homepage#/스포츠중계 The numbers pre-drawn can be odd, even or the first 43 numbers that pop out the machine. Caribbean Stud Progressive Bet-There is also usually an additional optional wager you can place to qualify for the progressive jackpot. This supplemental bet has to be placed before the dealer announces bets are closed. Any winning progressive payout wager shall be paid irrespective of the rank of the hand of the dealer or even if the dealer does not have a qualifying hand or has a higher ranking hand. A player shall receive the payout for only the highest ranking five-card Poker hand formed.
If more than one player remains in contention after the final betting round, a showdown takes place where the hands are revealed, and the player with the winning hand takes the pot. In the 15th Century in Europe, the suits of playing cards varied; typically a deck had four suits, although five suits were common and other structures are also known. That leaves you with 52.5 percent of the hands you are dealt as raising hands. Dealers will always keep A, K, so they will qualify for the hand a little more than 53 percent of the time. The dealer will not qualify 23 percent of the time that you raise, or one in every four hands.In french suit -coins turned into diamonds -the cups, which stood for “love”, turned into hearts - swords turned into spades - sticks turned into clubs.
Tumblr media
he common elements for all the Ace cards is the statement "The Law (of) the French Republic", and a square made up of four Roman republican fasces lashed together (affirming the idea that individual rods are unbreakably strong when they are united together). The commentary in the pamphlet states: In Atlantic City and Pennsylvania, the combine lay odds and Don't Pass bet must be table minimum so players may bet as little as the minimum two units on odds depending on the point. The system, also called montant et demontant (from French, meaning upwards and downwards), is often called a pyramid system.In Europe nearly every country changed its laws in the latter half of the 20th century to permit casinos.
Once the shooter is covered, other players may make Pass/Don't Pass bets, or any other proposition bets, as long as there is another player willing to cover. The prayer or invocation "Baby needs a new pair of shoes!" is associated with shooting craps. You can learn more about house edge on the page linked to below. 카지노사이트 Some layouts mark the bet with a two-headed snake that winds from 1 to 34, and the bet can be placed on the head at either end of the body.
The police tolerate the level of gambling in pachinko parlors. The Nevada Gaming Control Board divides Clark County, which is coextensive with the Las Vegas metropolitan area, into seven market regions for reporting purposes. Then, another round of betting takes place. Finally, each player must show his or her cards and the player with the best hand wins.For example, if a player says "hop the tens" (6–4, 5–5, 4–6) the player must give the dealer an even number bet so it can be divided among the hard and easy ways.
It has grown over the years, reinventing itself in different new versions… Like a game of numbers, you should have an outstanding level of concentration to learn its tricks, to get the best odds. In roulette, bets can either be inside or outside bets. If the first number ends with an 8, 9, or 0, another number may be drawn as there are no numbers starting with an 8 or 9 and only 9 numbers starting with a 0. Some halls will also redraw a number ending with a 7 as there are only six numbers beginning with a 7.Another common rule is to allow “doubling down” with two cards that total 11 (in some variants 11 or 10)—the player doubles the bet, turns up the cards, and takes one more card facedown.

A look back at 2017 homicides in Lafayette Parish

At least 20 people were killed in violent incidents in Lafayette Parish in 2017, mostly the result of shootings.
In addition, an unidentified person was shot and killed in a business parking lot. Police deemed the incident was a justifiable homicide, and no charges were filed.
Police also arrested a suspect after the May disappearance of Jacquelyn "Daisy Lynn" Landry. He was charged with second-degree murder, although Landry’s body has not been found.
The following list reflects known cases investigated by the Lafayette Police Department and Lafayette Parish Sheriff’s Office as of Dec. 20, 2017.
John Jones, 45, died after being shot in the chest in the 100 block of Hansel Drive. On Dec. 19, Lafayette police arrested Jeantrell Pierson, 26, and charged him with one count of second-degree murder.

George Ford, 23, was shot and killed in the 400 block of Jefferson Street as a crowd left the night’s Festival International activities. Two others were shot and injured.

No one has been charged with Ford’s death.
May 4, 2017
Lance Champagne, 21, was found dead in a Simcoe Street apartment from an apparent drug overdose. Authorities originally ruled the death an accident. However, in December, a grand jury indicted Jermaine Albert Jones, 23, for second-degree murder in connection with Champagne’s death.
May 12, 2017
The body of Leroy Hamilton, 36, was discovered in Lafayette after he had been shot. Police arrested Melissa Neilson, 34, and charged her with first-degree murder and conspiracy to possess Schedule I narcotics. An arrest warrant was issued for her husband, Robert Neilson, 34, for the same charges. Police said the killing apparently stemmed from a drug transaction that turned violent.

Ligue des Cahiers : Du neuf avec des vieux
  Le feuilleton de l'été, le vrai, ne concernait ni les futures destinations de Neymar ou Mbappé ni les pérégrinations d’Ingrid Chauvin sur TF1, non, la question sur toutes les lèvres, surtout celles de Dino Dini, était "Mais qui va donc participer à la Ligue des Cahiers?”. Et après moult revirements, trahisons, forfaits et autres retours à la maison, ce sont finalement douze équipes qui prétendront à la succession du GrEAT. Pas de révolution donc, mais du sang neuf malgré tout avec une “nouvelle” venue (et même deux en comptant l’improbable fusion du Grand sud qui n’a pas frappé que les administrations).
    Le tirage au sort
Le tirage au sort 2016 avait été réalisé par des sourds, celui de 2017 l’a donc logiquement été en aveugle.
    Après huit ans d’attente, ça y est, le dernier match entre équipes “historiques” va enfin avoir lieu quand Le Ouest du Monde et les Joga Benito (ex Cédéfistes fucking (ex MILF (ex DDLT))) s’affronteront.
    La formule
On ne change pas une équipe qui ne gagne pas et la formule de l'an passé est donc reconduite: deux poules de six où tout le monde se rencontre puis, deux par deux, les équipes se qualifient pour les matchs de classement en croisant avec l'autre poule.
      Les matches de poule
  Pour voir cette toute petite image en grand et percer tous ses secrets, cliquez dessus. 
    Les équipes
  Grand Est All Tares
Les forfaits de tktcouscous (diablement efficace balle au pied) et Kara Bourré (portebonheur inutile sur le terrain mais victorieux à la fin) auront-ils raison des ambitions de doublé du tenant du titre? Ou renforceront-ils un groupe déjà pénible à bouger autour de son maître à jouer busard?
L'effectif: Backhim (c), 20-Rémy, Autant en emporte l Owen, busart CatJ, Cris CoOL, Gone à Lyon, jedaaii, le petit prince, Niang, ni Demont, Packt like Zinedine in RM box, Save Our Sport, Sidney le grand Govou.
    L'Essaim Hurleur
Finaliste malheureux l'an passé après avoir fait troisième en 2015, l'Essaim veut continuer sa progression et, tel le Brésil 2002, devenir la première équipe à remporter quatre fois l’épreuve. Au pire (pour eux), ils s’inspirent du Brésil 2014 et se prennent une volée en demi-finale pour finir quatrième. Comme ça, ils se consoleront en complétant leur collection de places 1 à 5.
L'effectif: Jeanroucas (c), casartelli, Charles Bodmer, kebou, La baie des champs, Marius T, Omnale, Philou Vercruysse, Ratzoire, Troglodyt, webpea, Westham, Zubar t'abat.
    Olympique Aliénés
Autres squatteurs de podiums récents, les Aliénés viennent d’enchaîner une victoire en 2015 avec une troisième place en 2016. Le problème pour eux, c’est que la dernière fois qu’ils ont réalisé de telles performances, ils ont terminé douzièmes la fois d’après. Est-ce que l'effet damirez évitera à l’histoire de se répéter?
L'effectif: damirez (c), AWOL, Bourrinos, Cissé rond c'est Bakari, Ethique Estac, Eviv Bulgroz, Fei Lung, GovouTheNight, Jay-jay Tolosa, Steve and Gérard, ThomasDeruda28, Wonderbra.
    Le Ouest du Monde
Revenu au (pied du) sommet après des années de vaches rousses, blanches et noires, certes, mais maigres avant tout, Le Ouest du Monde tâchera de confirmer son regain de forme. Au risque de vexer raïeaïeaïe, forfait pour la seconde année consécutive.
L'effectif: Mykland (c), cristobal, dan, Edji, fusée arjen, Joule, Kireg, Koller et Thil, Lancelot du HAC, nikoselstokos, Quaresmoi, Vieux pré.
    Raya Occitania
Quel est le point commun entre le GrEAT, le VAGE, l'Essaim Hurleur, l'EVECT, les alors DDLT et les MRD? Toutes ces équipes ont eu l'occasion de signer la passe de trois (le GrEAT dauphin en 2011 et 2012, le VAGE onzième en 2012 et 2013, l'Essaim cinquième en 2009 et 2010 puis premier en 2013 et 2014, l'EVECT neuvième en 2012 et 2013, les DDLT d'alors douzièmes en 2012 et 2013, et les MRD dixièmes en 2009 et 2010 puis cinquièmes en 2013 et 2014) mais toutes ont échoué (l'Essaim poussant le vice jusqu'à récupérer la cinquième place en 2012, le VAGE en ayant déjà fini onzième en 2010). C'est dire la montagne qui attend le double tenant en titre de la cinquième place.
L'effectif: nidieunimaître (c), bendjaz, betomar, Doc Martins, Fredozoizo, OMalavialamaure, patrice, ricardo quaresmoi, Sergent Louis Garcia, Zazie et Zizou, Annyong (agent libre)
    Open Barbares
À l’image de l’Essaim, les Barbares tenteront de combler les trous de leur palmarès: une victoire qui leur échappe depuis la première édition, et la suite 1 à 4 serait à eux, alors qu’une cinquième place leur permettrait de boucler un superbe Grand Chelem 2 à 7 de la lose. Reste à voir s’ils seront plus à même d’honorer leurs rendez-vous avec l’histoire qu’avec le reste de la Cédéfie...
L'effectif: JihaiR (c), AKK, rends tes sets, AMR, benab, coach_mimi, di mektass, Didier Wacouboué, Fier Panpan, leo, Lucarelli, M@jor, Sir Sourire.
    L'Union
Derrière ce nom mystérieux se cache le ventre mou sportif de la Cédéfie avec la fusion des MRD et des Aquitaine Fracasse, respectivement septièmes et huitièmes de la dernière édition. Il ne reste plus qu’à espérer qu’ils croiseront l’équipe VML pour déterminer qui est le plus mou.
L'effectif: en rang dogon (ex AF), Cantona que l'amour (ex AF), Francesco lit (ex AF), Hqlol (ex AF), Jean Christophe Tout vénal (ex AF), richard (ex AF), Si vis pacem, para Bellion (ex AF), Dinopatou (ex MRD), Cana rien fait et nasri (ex MRD), Nicordio (ex MRD), TiramiSuazo (ex MRD), Tonton Danijel (ex MRD).
    Sans doute la meilleure photo de la dernière édition...
    Joga Benito (ex Cédéfistes Fucking (ex MILF (ex DDLT)))
Après nous avoir régalé avec leurs pratiques sexuelles déviantes, les ex DDLT se rajoutent une parenthèse en étant plutôt école Thiago Motta que Gabriel Heinze. La faute de goût de trop, après le slip et la casquette de Zénon?
L'effectif: Gone n Rosette (c), Courgetti, Hannibal, Highway to L1, Jean Niño, Ligue Huns, Wallemme Six Yeah, valdo (agent libre).
    Val de l'Arc Grampus 8
Après une édition 2016 au bord de la rupture et malgré un mercato mouvementé (forfait de membres historiques, inscription d’autres en tant qu’agent libre…), le VAGE sera bien présent pour tenter de décrocher une nouvelle fois sa place dans le dernier carré. Car, figurez-vous Jean-Michel, le VAGE est la seule équipe à avoir terminé à chaque fois dans le dernier carré. Bon, ils ont pris la chose un peu trop littéralement en finissant sept fois entre la neuvième et la dernière place, mais cette stabilité est à saluer.
L'effectif: Attilio (c), Ba Zenga, cachaco, FPZ, Maniche Nails, Modeste Lebanni, Peter Hesteven, Rabinho, Vachalait, Harold Ayew (agent libre??).
    EVECT
Quand Yoop confirme l’inscription de l’EVECT, il le fait pour quinze personnes mais dont quatre sont potentiellement forfaits, un l’est officiellement, et deux ne sont même pas inscrits. Si l’EVECT est aussi bien organisée côté terrain que côté “administratif”, les autres équipes n’ont aucune chance.
L'effectif: Yoop2804 (c), bolkonsky, forezjohn, Jamel Attal, Jankulovic Hasek, Lasth, Lubo, prime, Teroll, toniolibero, Voom Bal AD.
    Zahian Supa Crew
Pillée de ses éléments belges mais renforcée par des cédéfistes postant moins que M@jor, la Zahian revient, d'autant plus indispensable qu'elle accueille cette année le balashov22 circus pour sept représentations exceptionnelles.
L'effectif: contact (c), Blackool02, Dino Dini, Giresse au bout de mes rêves, grimoireorange, J'ai remis tout l'allant, Lass des as, ORRG, Pierro, Robby #10, balashov22 (agent libre).
    L’équipe VML
Pour première fois sur vos pelouses: l’équipe VML ou le ventre mou de la Cédéfie, versant fantasy (non, pas celui de Nicordio). Enfin mou, sauf quand il s’agit de mercato estival, vu qu’ils se sont servis dans la moitié des équipes: les Aquitaine Fracasse (Parkduprince et revlog), la Zahian (Bio-Hazard et Mandandamadeus), les ex DDLT (Oook), les Aliénés (Paul de Gascogne), le GrEAT (Isaias) et les MRD (mr.suaudeau). C’est bien simple, nous aurions pu faire une poule composée uniquement d’ex vindicatifs qui se seraient battus pour avoir le droit de rappeler la valeur des mots “Respect du maillot” aux brebis égarées. Mais le sort en a décidé autrement...
L'effectif: Parkduprince (c), Bio-Hazard, Isaias, magic_patator, Mandandamadeus, mr.suaudeau, Oook, Paul de Gascogne, Putzi, revlog, Scorbut et Correa.
  Enfin, nous vous demandons de respecter une minute de silence pour le poil à gratter de cette Ligue des Cahiers, disparu prématurément quelque part entre Auxerre et Dijon avant d’avoir pu poser des problèmes à quelqu’un d’autre qu’au Board. Mesdames et messieurs, feue l'équipe fantasy NBA.
      Le concours d'affiche
Cette année, le concours d’affiche a mis aux prise AKK, rends tes sets à lui même. Du moins pour la version tout public, la version “fil porno” ayant reçu une contribution de Lancelot du HAC qui n’aurait pas eu à rougir face à la poiuyt 2016.
        L’appel de dernière minute
Certaines équipes sont un peu justes en nombre, et des forfaits de dernière minute ne sont pas à exclure. Il reste donc de la place et si, fidèle membre du forum, tu souhaites te joindre à nous et rencontrer ainsi la fine fleur cédéfiste, n'hésite pas, il reste des places! Pour cela, contacte nous par mail [email protected] ou fais-toi connaître sur le fil dédié.

New England Timeline, 1603-1718
The following article was written by my good friend, by William Dollarhide:
The founding of the first English colonies in North America happened in an area known simply as Virginia. They happened in the early 1600s, during an era of intense religious turmoil going on in England. Without that turmoil, there would have been no need for the Great Migration of Puritans to New England. Therefore, a timeline of events relating to New England must include the historical events of England. The players and events leading up to the Great Migration to New England, and the events thereafter are identified below, from the discoveries of New England to the arrival of the first Scots-Irish immigrants to Boston Harbor.
1602 Cape Cod & Martha’s Vineyard. English Privateer Bartholomew Gosnold led an expedition to present Massachusetts, named Cape Cod and discovered an island south of Cape Cod, that he named Martha’s Vineyard. Gosnold had planned on planting a small settlement in the Cape Cod area, but the settlers chose to return to England due to a lack of provisions. Gosnold went on to become one of the founders of the Jamestown Colony.
1603 England. James I became King of England, the first monarch to rule both England and Scotland. (He was James VI of Scotland since 1566). He was also the first English monarch to publicly assert that he was blessed with “the divine right of Kings,” meaning he was the voice of God on earth, at least in England, Scotland, or Ireland. Although James I was most remembered for commissioning a Bible translation, during his reign the first permanent English colonies were established in Virginia and New England. James I also led the English takeover of Northern Ireland, and was the first advocate for the transportation of thousands of clan people living along the Scottish-English border to Ulster Province, Northern Ireland.
1603. English Captain Martin Pring led an expedition to present Maine, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts. He was the first European to ascend the Piscataqua River, and was the first to erect a small fort on Cape Cod (now Truro, MA).
1603-1604. French nobleman Pierre DuGua (Sieur DeMonts) was granted exclusive rights to colonize the area he had named l’Acadie (Acadia), granted by French King Henry IV. The area of Acadia included allof present Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and most of Maine. In 1604, DeMonts established a French colony on St. Croix Island, at the mouth of the St. Croix River, now Maine. After surviving a bad Winter, the entire colony was moved across the Bay of Fundy to Port-Royal, now Nova Scotia.
1606. Two joint stock companies were founded in 1606, both with royal charters issued by King James I, for the purpose of establishing colonies in North America. The Virginia Company of London was given a land grant between Latitude 34o (Cape Fear) and Latitude 41o (Long Island Sound). The Virginia Company of Plymouth was founded with a similar charter, between Latitude 38o (Potomac River) and Latitude 45o (St. John River), which included a shared area with the London Company between Latitude 38o and 41o. The first leader of the Plymouth Company was Sir Ferdinando Gorges, who was given official sanction for starting colonies in North America.
1607. May. Led by John Smith and his cousin, Bartholomew Gosnold, the London Company established the first permanent English settlement in North America – the Jamestown Colony. It was followed in August 1607 by the Sagadahoc Colony led by George Popham, established by the Plymouth Company, near the mouth of the Kennebec River (present Phippsburg, Maine). The Sagadahoc colony was abandoned after just one year, due to a lack of confidence in a change of leadership. Thereafter, the Plymouth Company dissolved until it was revived in 1620 as the Plymouth Council for New England.
1609. The 2nd Virginia Charter of 1609 extended the jurisdiction of the London Company to include the former shared area with the original Plymouth Company, and the language of the new charter now included the words, “sea to sea.” (James I was assured that the Pacific Ocean was just a bit west of the Appalachian Mountains).
1614. New England. English Captain John Smith, a leader of the Jamestown Colony, visited the coast of present Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Maine; then wrote his Description of New England, which encouraged Englishmen to settle there. Smith was credited as the first to call the area New England. Back in England, Christopher Jones was one seafarer who was known to have read Smith’s Description of New England, and remarked that he would like to go there. He got his wish as the master of the Mayflower in 1620.
1620. Plymouth Colony. A new Royal Charter was issued by King James I to the Plymouth Council for New England (formerly the Virginia Company of Plymouth) to establish colonial settlements in New England. The area was from Latitude 40o to Latitude 45o (“sea to sea”). In that same year, the Mayflower dropped anchor off Cape Cod, and Plymouth Colony was founded by a small group of Separatists/Pilgrims, who had fled England for Holland a few years earlier. Unlike the Puritans, the Pilgrims did not want to purify the Church of England, they wanted to get away from the church’s Prayer Book, and have their own method of worship.
1622-1623. Province of Maine. In 1622, the Plymouth Council of New England granted rights of lands to Sir Ferdinando Gorges and Captain John Mason. The lands were between the Merrimack and Kennebec rivers, an area which included parts of present New Hampshire and Maine. Gorges was the first to use the name Maine to describe the area. In 1623, English Captain Christopher Levett obtained grants of land from the Plymouth Council to establish colonies in New England. Levett’s first Casco Bay settlement was the Colony of York, at the site of present Portland, Maine, but the small group of people Levett had left there were gone when he returned a few months later. Then in 1623, the Levett colony at the mouth of the Piscataqua River (now Kittery) was successful, as was a second York colony on the York River. Piscataqua/Kittery and York were the first permanent English settlements in the Province of Maine.
1625 England. Charles I became King of England, Scotland, and Ireland. Charles believed in the same principles his father, James I had espoused, i.e., that as King, he was the infallible interpreter of God’s will on earth. Soon after taking office, Charles began to note a large number of non-conformists among his subjects. Along with his Archbishop, William Laud, the King began a campaign to purge his church of the largest group of non-conformists, the so-called Puritans, a militant Calvinist religious sect attempting to purify the Church of England. Unfortunately, Charles I took on a job that led to civil war in England as well as the loss of his head. But, his campaign can be credited as the main cause for the founding of the largest English settlement in North America.
1628. The Massachusetts Bay Company was granted a royal charter for an English colony to be established in North America within the bounds of the Plymouth Council of New England. It was said that King Charles I was misled as to the religious leanings of the Massachusetts Bay Company leaders, all prominent Puritans, not Pilgrims, as he had surmised. The language of the Royal Charter essentially removed the Plymouth Council from the picture, and the Massachusetts Bay Company managed to acquire legal interest in the area from Latitude 410 to Latitude 450, except for any previous grants in the same area.
1629. New Hampshire. Sir Ferdinando Gorges and Captain John Mason agreed to split their grants at the Piscataqua River, with Mason retaining the land west of the river as the Province of New Hampshire.
1629. The Great Migration to New England begins. As a result of Charles I’s campaign to purge non-conformists from the Church of England, 1629-1640, large groups of people were alienated. Charles I disbanded Parliament and ruled England alone for eleven years. The Puritans referred to this era as “the eleven years of tyranny.” It was during these eleven years that about 80,000 Puritans felt compelled to leave England. About a fourth of them moved to Holland; another fourth of them to Ireland; a fourth to the West Indies, particularly the islands of Barbados, Nevis, and St. Kitts; and the final group, some 20,000 Puritan immigrants, established the Massachusetts Bay Colony of North America.
1630. Massachusetts Bay Colony. The colonial government was organized, with the first General Court at Charlestown and the creation of the first three counties of Norfolk, Suffolk, and Essex. They happened to be the same names as the three East Anglia counties of England from whence the majority of the Puritans had lived before coming to America.
1634. The Massachusetts Bay colony began annexing areas of present Maine. The original grants issued to Sir Ferdinand Gorges and Captain Christopher Levett were overlapped by grants of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, which began selling land in any unsettled areas just across the Piscataqua River in present Maine. As soon as settlements were established, Massachusetts Bay formally annexed those areas as part of their territory.
1635-1637. In 1635, religious dissident Roger Williams was banished from the Massachusetts Bay Colony. In 1637, Anne Hutchinson, a charismatic religious leader opposed to the Puritans, was put on trial (in the Church Court), excommunicated, and banished.
1636. Connecticut Colony. The English settlements of Hartford, Wethersfield, and Windsor were formed as the Connecticut Colony. First known as the River Colony, it was a recognized organization for a Puritan congregation established by the Massachusetts Bay Colony.
1637. King Charles I, now keenly aware of the fact that the Massachusetts Bay Colony was an enclave of non-conformist Puritans, turned their charter over to Sir Ferdinand Gorges, a loyal supporter of the king, and the original leader of the Plymouth Company. However, the official transfer document with the king’s seal was on board a ship that sank en route to Boston. The Puritans, believing it to be an Act of Providence, ignored the king’s edict.
1638. Roger Williams, Anne Hutchinson, and more dissidents, founded the Providence Plantations (later Rhode Island and Providence Plantations).
1638-1643. In 1638, New Haven Colony was formed as an independent colony, separate from Connecticut Colony. In 1643, the coastal settlements of Branford, Guilford, Milford, Stamford, plus Southold (on Long Island), all joined the New Haven Colony.
1642. English Civil War. Since taking the throne in 1625, King Charles I had purged most of the Puritans from the Church of England. To deal with a Parliament opposing his every move, in 1629, Charles disbanded Parliament and ruled England on his own. That action canceled over 400 years of liberties gained by Parliament since the Magna Carta. When Parliament was restored in 1640, it quickly became dominated by the same Puritans who Charles had removed from the Church of England. Beginning in 1642, Royalist supporters were forced to fight the armies of the Puritan Parliament in the English Civil War. The supporters of Charles I did not fare well against them.
1645-1651. England. After his defeat and capture in 1645, Charles I refused to accept his captors’ demands for a constitutional monarchy, and briefly escaped captivity in 1647. While recaptured, his son, Prince Charles, was able to marshal Scottish forces for the king. However, by 1648, Oliver Cromwell had consolidated the English opposition. King Charles I was tried, convicted, and executed for high treason in January 1649. The Civil War continued until 1651.
1651-1658. Commonwealth of England. Prince Charles had lived in exile after the execution of his father, Charles I. In 1649, the Scots had proclaimed Charles the King of Scotland. But, the Puritan leader, Oliver Cromwell, defeated his army in 1651, and Charles fled to France. Cromwell was to become the Lord Protectorate of the Commonwealth of England, with a puritan-controlled Parliament.
1656. The first Quakers in New England, Mary Fisher and Ann Austin, arrived at Boston Harbor and were immediately arrested.
1658. Massachusetts had always expressed a claim to Maine, based on the language of their 1628 Royal Charter (which had defined their northern bounds as the St. John River). After several partial annexations beginning in 1634, all of Maine was annexed as frontier territory by the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1658. The Maine communities were allowed to vote on the final annexations, and all were in favor of joining Massachusetts.
1659. After being convicted by the Church Court in Salem, Mary Dyer was hanged for the crime of being a Quaker.
1660. England. Oliver Cromwell had died in 1658. Soon after, the English people became dissatisfied with the government that Cromwell had established. In 1660, Parliament invited Prince Charles to return and declared him king. Charles II was restored to the throne as King of England, Scotland, and Ireland. He was to become one of the most effective English monarchs of all time. He ruled until his death in 1685, and during his reign, the English colonials forced out the remaining pockets of Atlantic settlements made earlier by the Dutch, Swedes, and Danes. Charles II was the first monarch to recognize the potential for the North American colonies to become a contiguous, viable commonwealth.
1661. March. The last Quaker was hanged in Boston. In April, King Charles II ordered the Massachusetts Bay Colony to end the practice.
1665 Connecticut Colony. New Haven Colony and Connecticut Colony merged into one chartered colony, retaining the name Connecticut.
1685-1688. Charles II died in 1685 without issue. His brother, the Duke of York was crowned as King James II. After James II declared his Catholic beliefs, he was deposed in 1688. His Protestant daughter, Mary, was declared the legal heir to the throne. She had married her cousin, William of Orange, the Stadtholder/Ruler of Holland, and Europe’s most staunch Protestant leader. Because of William’s stature as the leader of the Protestant insurrection which had overthrown the Catholic James II, Parliament asked both William and Mary to rule England jointly. The Protestant-controlled Parliament considered the skirmish a holy war, and later gave the insurrection the name of Glorious Revolution. James was exiled to France, where he died in 1701.
1691.Province of Massachusetts Bay. The province was formed after merging the Plymouth Colony and the Massachusetts Bay Colony. About this time, the term District of Maine, was used to describe that area as part of the Province of Massachusetts Bay.
1692. The Salem Witch Trials took place, culminating in over 170 arrests and 20 executions.
1707. During the reign of Queen Anne, the United Kingdom of Great Britain was established after the Union with Scotland Act passed the English Parliament in 1706; and the Union with England Act passed the Parliament of Scotland in 1707. The English Colonies were now the British Colonies.
1714. After Queen Anne died without issue, her 2nd cousin, George I was crowned King of Great Britain and Ireland. Although there were several English heirs closer to Queen Anne than George I, he was the closest Protestant heir, a great-grandson of English King James I. George I was the first of the House of Hanover to rule Great Britain. He left his home in Hanover infrequently, never learned to speak English, and sanctioned the creation of the first Prime Minister and Cabinet Government in Great Britain. During the reign of a mostly absent George I, the British colonies were invaded by the first wave of Scots-Irish immigrants.
1718. The arrival of the first Scots-Irish immigrants to New England was via Boston Harbor. The so-called Scots-Irish (or Ulster Scots) were former border clan people who had lived near the Scottish-English border for centuries. A good number of them had moved into areas of Northern Ireland in the early 1600s, and a mass migration to most of the British colonies of America began in about 1717. Generally, the Scots-Irish did not care for civilization that much, and usually leap-frogged over any Atlantic settlements en route to the higher, wilderness areas of America. They did this in New England, New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia, the Carolinas, and Georgia. The first Scots-Irish who came to New England were to immediately head west into central Massachusetts or north into New Hampshire. Soon after the first New England arrivals, a number of Scots-Irish discovered the coastal areas of Maine. By 1775, the Scots-Irish in America outnumbered (by three times) the other three founding colonial English groups (Puritans, Royalists/Cavaliers, and Quakers).
