English: One of the Ever First Coloured Photoraph of the Rock of Aornos (Shot on 17 July 1986 CE) by Asst. Prof. Dr. Taskeen Ahmad Khan and then Uploaded by him for the Ever First Time at the various Websites over the Internet/World Wide Web on 09.09.2009 CE and later on. It is loctated in the Shangla District, Khyber Pakhtun Khwa (KPK) (previously the North-West Frontier Province), Pakistan. There is mention of the Rock of Aornos in the book entitled Anabasis Alexandri (Expedition of Alexander) written by Lucius Flavius Arrianus (Arrian) (A Greek who was a Prefect or Legate (Governor) of Cappadocia under the Caesar Publius Aelius Traianus Hardianus Augustus of the Roman Empire) who lived to circa 160 CE. This, and the fixing of the Site of Aornos, is the theme of some fascinating expolorations undertaken by Marc Aurel Stein (Ethnic Hungarian British Archaeologist) - includings its Ever First Black and White Photographs by him (Later on Knightened as Sir Marc Aurel Stein). The stir and the thrill comes, one thinks, from a sudden discovery that, while no local record or memory remains of those far-off events, it is still possible from the tactical accounts rendered by Arrian and the others to recognise on the ground today some of the actual strongholds which fell to the arms of the Alexander the Great. In so doing one can see again the heavy-armed hoplites of the Macedonian's phalanx and almost hear the headlong rush of his cavalry carrying his standard up the broad and beautiful valley of Swat, KPK, Pakistan, |
