20/2/23: Finished Book 1: Clio
This has taken me down a rabbit hole of world atlases and trying to fit then city/state with today’s city/countries. The confusing part is keeping track of the place when called several different names based on ruler. Akin to changing the state name of Virginia based on who is Governor and city names on who is mayor.

Starting Book 3: Thalia
Note: The third book is named for the muse of idyllic poetry and comedy.
General observation is that those were very violent times; “countries” constantly renamed for kings who consult with oracles for guidance and who seem to have unlimited monetary resources. Taxes and slavery for the rest. Although I have learned why the Egyptians do not consider themselves African.
