Connetable (Gatchina)
59°33′36.3″N 30°6′47.1″E﻿ / ﻿59.560083°N 30.113083°E﻿ / 59.560083; 30.113083

Connetable (Russian: Коннетабль) is an obelisk and square in Gatchina, Russia, located at the intersection of 25 October Prospect (main city's street) and Krasnoarmeysky Prospect. The author of the project was probably Vincenzo Brenna.

Obelisk
An obelisk (/ˈɒbəlɪsk/; from Ancient Greek  ὀβελίσκος (obelískos), diminutive of ὀβελός (obelós) ' spit, nail, pointed pillar'), less often spelled obelisque, is a tall, slender, tapered monument with four sides and a pyramidal or pyramidion top. Originally constructed by Ancient Egyptians and called tekhenu, the Greeks used the Greek term obeliskos to describe them, and this word passed into Latin and ultimately English. Though William Thomas used the term correctly in his Historie of Italie of 1549, by the late sixteenth century (after reduced contact with Italy following the excommunication of Queen Elizabeth), Shakespeare failed to distinguish between pyramids and obelisks in his plays and sonnets. Ancient obelisks are monolithic and consist of a single stone; most modern obelisks are made of several stones.

Ampoza ground roller
The Ampoza ground roller (Brachypteracias langrandi) was a species of bird in the ground roller family Brachypteraciidae. It is known only from a single humerus fossil discovered in 1929 in southwest Madagascar. Little is known about the species, but it is suggested that the bird's habitat becoming more arid was a contributing factor in its demise.

Humerus
The humerus (/ˈhjuːmərəs/; pl.: humeri) is a long bone in the arm that runs from the shoulder to the elbow. It connects the scapula and the two bones of the lower arm, the radius and ulna, and consists of three sections. The humeral upper extremity consists of a rounded head, a narrow neck, and two short processes (tubercles, sometimes called tuberosities). The shaft is cylindrical in its upper portion, and more prismatic below. The lower extremity consists of 2 epicondyles, 2 processes (trochlea and capitulum), and 3 fossae (radial fossa, coronoid fossa, and olecranon fossa). As well as its true anatomical neck, the constriction below the greater and lesser tubercles of the humerus is referred to as its surgical neck due to its tendency to fracture, thus often becoming the focus of surgeons.
Baaltars
Baaltars (Aramaic: 𐡁𐡏𐡋𐡕𐡓𐡆‎, romanized: BʿLTRZ, lit. 'Baʿal of Tarsus') was possibly the chief deity of the city of Tarsus during the Achaemenid Empire.

The image of Baaltars featured on the legends of coins struck by Mazaeus and Datames, who were Achaemenid satraps of Cilicia, and of Pharnabazus II, who was satrap of Hellespontine Phrygia.

Baaltars was depicted holding an ear of wheat and a bunch of grapes, and was likely a local representation of the Luwian Storm-god Tarḫunzas.

Baaltars might be the same deity whom Eratosthenes of Cyrene in the 3rd century BCE called Zeus Tersios (Ancient Greek: Ζεύς Τέρσιος).

Some scholars have hypothesised that Baaltars later lost his prominence to Sandas, while Olivier Casabonne has proposed that Baaltars was also identified with Sandas/Nergal, who was in turn identified with the Phoenician god Melqart of Tyre.

Pharnabazus II
Pharnabazus II (Old Iranian: Farnabāzu, Ancient Greek: Φαρνάβαζος Pharnabazos; ruled 413–374 BC) was a Persian soldier and statesman, and Satrap of Hellespontine Phrygia.  He was the son of Pharnaces II of Phrygia and grandson of Pharnabazus I, and great-grandson of Artabazus I. He and his male ancestors, forming the Pharnacid dynasty, had governed the satrapy of Hellespontine Phrygia from its headquarters at Dascylium since 478 BC. He married Apama, daughter of Artaxerxes II of Persia, and their son Artabazus also became a satrap of Phrygia. According to some accounts, his granddaughter Barsine may have become Alexander the Great's concubine.

According to research by Theodor Nöldeke, he was descended from Otanes, one of the associates of Darius in the murder of Smerdis.
