Beer is one of the oldest beverages humans have produced, dating back to at least the 5th millennium BC in Iran, and was recorded in the written history of ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia and spread throughout the world.
Beer is produced through steeping a sugar source (commonly malted cereal grains) in water and then fermenting with yeast.
 Brewing has taken place since around the 6th millennium BC, and archeological evidence suggests that this technique was used in ancient Egypt.
 Descriptions of various beer recipes can be found in Sumerian writings, some of the oldest known writing of any sort.
 Brewing is done in a brewery by a brewer, and the brewing industry is part of most western economies.
The Armed Forces Recipe Service is a compendium of high-volume foodservice recipes written and updated regularly by the United States Department of Defense Natick Laboratories, and used by military cooks and by institutional and catering operations.
 It originated in 1969 as a consolidation of the cooking manuals of the four main services, and is based on previous military publications dating back to the first standardization efforts in the US Army in 1896.
 Recipes are based primarily on American cookery, with the addition of specialized items such as vegetarian, kosher and halal recipes to meet more specialized needs of those being served.
 The Service database is now distributed by the Joint Culinary Center of Excellence, a division of the US Army Quartermaster School based in Fort Lee, Virginia.

The history of Lithuania dates back to settlements founded many thousands of years ago , but the first written record of the name for the country dates back to 1009 AD.
 Lithuanians, one of the Baltic peoples, later conquered neighboring lands and established the Grand Duchy of Lithuania in the 13th century (and also a short-lived Kingdom of Lithuania).
 The Grand Duchy was a successful and lasting warrior state.
 It remained fiercely independent and was one of the last areas of Europe to adopt Christianity (beginning in the 14th century).
 A formidable power, it became the largest state in Europe in the 15th century through the conquest of large groups of East Slavs who resided in Ruthenia.
 In 1385, the Grand Duchy formed a dynastic union with Poland through the Union of Krewo.
 Later, the Union of Lublin (1569) created the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth that lasted until 1795, when the last of the Partitions of Poland erased both Lithuania and Poland from the political map.
 Afterward, the Lithuanians lived under the rule of the Russian Empire until the 20th century.
The Papyrus Graecus Holmiensis, which is also known as the Stockholm Papyrus, dates from "c." 300 AD and contains craft recipes written in Demotic Greek.
 The Stockholm papyrus has 154 recipes for dyeing, coloring gemstones, cleaning (purifying) pearls, and imitation gold and silver.
 Certain of them may derive from the Pseudo-Demikristo.
 Zosimos of Panopolis, a Greek Alchemist of "c." 100 AD, gives similar recipes.
 Translations of certain of these recipes are found in mediaeval Latin collections of technological recipes, notably the Mappae clavicula.
Bretwalda (also brytenwalda and bretenanwealda, sometimes capitalized) is an Old English word.
 The first record comes from the late 9th-century "Anglo-Saxon Chronicle".
 It is given to some of the rulers of Anglo-Saxon kingdoms from the 5th century onwards who had achieved overlordship of some or all of the other Anglo-Saxon kingdoms.
 It is unclear whether the word dates back to the 5th century and was used by the kings themselves or whether it is a later, 9th-century, invention.
 The term "bretwalda" also appears in a 10th-century charter of Æthelstan.
 The literal meaning of the word is disputed and may translate to either 'wide-ruler' or 'Britain-ruler'.

A hero stone (Viragallu in Kannada, Naṭukal in Tamil) is a memorial commemorating the honorable death of a hero in battle.
 Erected between the 3rd century BC and the 18th century AD, hero stones are found all over India.
 They often carry inscriptions displaying a variety of adornments, including bas relief panels, frieze, and figures on carved stone.
 Usually they are in the form of a stone monument and may have an inscription at the bottom with a narrative of the battle.
 According to the historian Upinder Singh, the largest concentration of such memorial stones is found in the Indian state of Karnataka.
 About two thousand six hundred and fifty hero stones, the earliest dated to the 5th century have been discovered in Karnataka.
 The custom of erecting memorial stones dates back to the Iron Age (1000 BCE–600BCE) though a vast majority were erected between the 5th and 13th centuries AD.
