*Weekly Science Report*
*August 6, 2021*
*“The greatest tragedy in its vast and glorious tapestry is not the way in
which it fell, but that it has been consigned to irrelevance, its voices
unheeded and its lessons unlearned. For those who have eyes to see,
however, the lonely Theodosian walls still stand, battered and abused,
marching the long miles from the Sea of Marmara to the waters of the Golden
Horn. There they serve as a fitting testament to that epic struggle five
centuries ago, an unwavering reminder that the Roman Empire didn’t expire
in the humiliation of a little Augustus but in the heroism of a
Constantine.”*
Lars Brownworth (Lost to the West)
