And then, magnificently dominating the mid-east coast of the island is the highest and most active volcano in Europe, Mount Etna.

What does history tells us about them? What happened to them?
PHOENICIANS

Babylon is the most famous city from ancient Mesopotamia mentioned many times in the Bible and used by God to bring destruction upon unfaithful Jerusalem. Beautiful Babylon is known to be one of the Seven Wonders of the ancient World for its impressive walls, buildings and the Hanging Gardens which were man-made terraces of flora and fauna watered by machinery. The empire was a great seat of learning and culture, very religious to the point that we may call it the seat of false religion.
MEDO-PERSIA
AT THE BRITISH MUSEUM [7]
Cyrus the Great, God’s instrument and his inheritance - the Persians, a nation ahead of their time, great and wise. What did the Persian do to the Israelite? Where can we find their history today? What remain of their past in this land so rich of history? And obviously here at the museum?

BIBLE TRANSLATIONS
AT THE BRITISH LIBRARY [10]
So many books, so many translations of the Bible. Some of these translations have made history like no others. The work behind the translations was not easy; in fact, it was often dangerous. Early translations were made by a series of people fascinated by the idea of adherence to truth. They didn't all agree about what the truth was, but their dedication to that concept was more important to them than their lives. Some died violently for the cause of translation. We will see these Bible and the history behind, the people, the places and the events that has shaped the Bible’s history and Europe.
