RandyJackson: /* Factual Errors */ Takshashila

==The New Zealand population survived by growing bananas, coconuts, yams and taro==

Where did you get this information from? The New Zealand climate does not support the growth of bananas and coconuts. the staple of Maori agriculture was the kumara (sweet potato). I don't think they had pigs either. [[User:Aloysius|Aloysius]] 08:14, 30 April 2007 (EDT)

==End of the Byzantine Empire?==

''"The end of the Byzantine empire occurred when Mongols invaded in the 13th century, followed by the rise of the Ottoman (Muslim) Turks to power in the 14th century, who replaced the Byzantium empire with their own."''

I suspect the fact that the Byzantine Empire came to an end in the 13th century would come as a suprise to those rulers and subjects of the Empire who were still there when Constantinople fell in 1453.[[User:BetsyNewson|BetsyNewson]] 09:50, 27 August 2008 (EDT)

== Factual Errors ==

-University of Bologna was not the first University. University of Constantinople was founded in 425 and recognized as one in 848. Islam founded numerous Universities before the University of Bologna.

-The 'tunic with a large red cross on it' was specifically the clothing of the Knights Templar, not all crusaders.

-The siege of Orleans was in 1429.

: Bologna was the first to use the term "university", and remains the oldest continuously operating degree-granting institution of higher education.

: I doubt a reader would think that ''everyone'' wore that uniform. But I'll modify the phrase to avoid any misunderstanding.

: OK, we'll go with 1429. Thanks.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 22:41, 4 March 2009 (EST)

Takshashila in what is now Pakistan was established several centuries before the birth of Christ. Significant figures in Indian history graduated from this university. -- Randall Jackson 22:30, 26 August 2011 (EDT)
