The Pharnavazid, Pharnabazid or Parnavazianni (Georgian: ფარნავაზიანები, ფარნავაზიანნი ) is the name of the first dynasty of Georgian kings of Kartli (Iberia) preserved by "The Georgian Chronicles".
 Their rule lasted, with intermissions, from the 3rd century BC to the 2nd century AD.
 The main male line is reported to have become extinct early on and followed by houses related to it in the female line.
 By the close of the 2nd century AD, the Pharnavazid rule came to an end and the Arsacid Dynasty took over the crown of Iberia.
A balinger, or ballinger was a type of small, sea-going vessel.
 It was swift and performed well under both sail and oars.
 It was probably developed in Bayonne for hunting whales.
 The ships were used in the conquest of Anglesey in 1282 (Oxford illustrated history of the Royal Navy, 1995,p7 and p11).
 They were also in use in the 15th and 16th centuries.
 They were distinguished by their lack of a forecastle, and by carrying either a square sail, or a sail extended on a sprit on a single mast.
 They were generally less than 100 tons, with a shallow draught, and the earlier vessels at least carried 30 or more oars for use in sheltered areas or for close fighting.
 They were mainly used for coastal trade, but could also be used as transports, carrying around forty soldiers.
 A number were employed in the early Royal Navy for this purpose.
Junk is a type of ancient Chinese sailing ship that is still in use today.
 Junks were used as seagoing vessels as early as the 2nd century AD and developed rapidly during the Song Dynasty (960–1279).
 They evolved in the later dynasties, and were used throughout Asia for extensive ocean voyages.
 They were found, and in lesser numbers are still found, throughout South-East Asia and India, but primarily in China.
 Found more broadly today is a growing number of modern recreational junk-rigged sailboats.
The 2nd/4th Battalion Royal Australian Regiment (2/4 RAR) was an Australian Army infantry battalion.
 2/4 RAR was formed on 15 August 1973 by linking 2nd Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment and 4th Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment.
 2/4 RAR was unlinked to re-form 2 RAR and 4 RAR on 1 February 1995.
 Throughout its existence 2/4 RAR was based at Lavarack Barracks in Townsville and formed part of the 3rd Brigade.
Valerius Harpocration (Greek: Οὐαλέριος or Βαλέριος Ἁρποκρατίων , "gen".
 Ἁρποκρατίωνος) was a Greek grammarian of Alexandria, probably working in the 2nd century AD.
 He is possibly the Harpocration mentioned by Julius Capitolinus ("Life of Verus", 2) as the Greek tutor of Lucius Verus (2nd century AD); some authorities place him much later, on the ground that he borrowed from Athenaeus.
 His "Lexicon of the Ten Orators" (Περὶ τῶν Λέξεων τῶν Δέκα Ῥητόρων, or briefly Λεξικὸν τῶν Δέκα Ῥητόρων), which has come down to us in an incomplete form, contains, in more or less alphabetical order, notes on well-known events and persons mentioned by the orators, and explanations of legal and commercial expressions.
 As nearly all the lexicons to the Greek orators have been lost, Harpocration's work is especially valuable.
 Amongst his authorities were the writers of Atthides (histories of Attica), the grammarian Didymus Chalcenterus, Dionysius of Halicarnassus, and the lexicographer Dionysius, son of Tryphon.
 The book also contains contributions to the history of Attic oratory and Greek literature generally.
 His "Collection of Florid Expressions", a sort of anthology or chrestomathy attributed to him by the "Suda", is lost, but elements of it survive in later lexica.
 A series of articles in the margin of a Cambridge manuscript of the "Lexicon" forms the basis of the "Lexicon rhetoricum Cantabrigiense" by Peter Paul Dobree.
The Royal Australian Corps of Transport (RACT) is a corps within the Australian Army.
 The RACT is ranked tenth in seniority of the corps of the Australian Army, and is the most senior Logistics corps.
 It was formed on 1 June 1973 as an amalgamation of the Royal Australian Army Service Corps (RAASC) and Royal Australian Engineers Transportation Service.
 The RACT is responsible for the operation of army surface transport assets, movement control, terminal and postal services, and Army aspects of air logistic support.
The Catacombs of Rome (Italian: "Catacombe di Roma" ) are ancient catacombs, underground burial places under Rome, Italy, of which there are at least forty, some discovered only in recent decades.
 Though most famous for Christian burials, either in separate catacombs or mixed together, people of all the Roman religions are buried in them, beginning in the 2nd century AD, mainly as a response to overcrowding and shortage of land.
 The Etruscans, like many other European peoples, used to bury their dead in underground chambers.
 The original Roman custom was cremation, after which the burnt remains were kept in a pot, ash-chest or urn, often in a columbarium.
 From about the 2nd century AD, inhumation (burial of unburnt remains) became more fashionable, in graves or sarcophagi, often elaborately carved, for those who could afford them.
 Christians also preferred burial to cremation because of their belief in bodily resurrection at the Second Coming.
Antiochus of Athens (Greek: Ἀντίοχος ὁ Ἀθηναῖος ) was an influential Hellenistic astrologer who flourished sometime between the late 1st and mid 2nd century AD.
 There is some disagreement as to when he lived and wrote.
 Franz Cumont and others have argued that he lived as early as the 1st century BC, while David Pingree placed him as late as the end of the 2nd century AD.
 The one agreed datum is that Antiochus is referenced by Porphyry (234-c.
 305 AD), and so Antiochus must have lived before the death of Porphyry.
HMAS "Diamond Snake" was a Snake-class junk built for the Royal Australian Navy during the Second World War.
 She was launched in 1945 and commissioned into the Royal Australian Navy on 23 July 1945.
 She was used by the Services Reconnaissance Department and was paid off on 19 October 1945, before being transferred to the Australian Army.
The Australian Army Nursing Service (AANS) was an Australian Army Reserve unit which provided a pool of trained civilian nurses who had volunteered for military service during wartime.
 The AANS was formed in 1902 by amalgamating the nursing services of the colonial-era militaries, and formed part of the Australian Army Medical Corps.
 During World War I, more than 2,286 women joined the AANS AIF for overseas service.
 Hundreds more served in the AANS AMF on home service in Australia.
 After WWI, the AANS reverted to a Reserve.
 The AANS was mobilised again during World War II, and many of its members served overseas.
 Following the war several AANS nurses were posted to Japan as part of the British Commonwealth Occupation Force.
 The service was renamed the Royal Australian Army Nursing Service (RAANS) in November 1948 and became part of the regular Army the next year.
 In 1951 the RAANS achieved corps status, and became the Royal Australian Army Nursing Corps.
