Other early cantilever bridges included the High Bridge of Kentucky by C. Shaler Smith (1877), the Niagara Cantilever Bridge by Charles Conrad Schneider (1883) and the Poughkeepsie Bridge by John Francis O'Rourke and Pomeroy P. Dickinson (1889).
The Kentucky River Bridge spanned a gorge that was 275 feet (84 meters) deep.
It was built with a cantilver which meant that it did not need to be supported during the building.
The most famous early cantilever bridge is the Forth Rail Bridge.
This bridge held the record for longest span in the world for 17 years.
Benjamin Baker showed how the cantilever system worked in the photo on the left.
The suspended span, where Kaichi Watanabe sits, is seen in the center.
The need to resist compression of the lower chord is seen in the use of wooden poles while the tension of the upper chord is shown by the outstretched arms.
The action of the outer foundations as anchors for the cantilever can be seen in the placement of the counterweights.
A simple cantilever span is formed by two cantilever arms extending from opposite sides of the obstacle to be crossed, meeting at the center.
With a suspended span, the cantilever arms do not meet in the center; instead, they support a central truss bridge which rests on the ends of the cantilever arms.
The suspended span may be built off-site and lifted into place, or constructed in place using special traveling supports.
With a balanced cantilever, the span is balanced by cantilevers going in the opposite direction.
If these are anchored into solid foundations, they are called anchor arms.
In a bridge built on two foundation piers, there are four cantilever arms: two which span the obstacle, and two anchor arms which extend away from the obstacle.
Because of the need for more strength at the balanced cantilever's supports, the bridge superstructure often takes the form of towers above the foundation piers.
Steel truss cantilevers support loads by tension of the upper members and compression of the lower ones.
Commonly, the structure distributes the tension through the anchor arms to the outermost supports, while the compression is carried to the foundations beneath the central towers.
Construction methods
Some steel arch bridges (such as the Navajo Bridge) are built using pure cantilever spans from each side.
These are then joined with a pin, usually after forcing the meeting point apart.
When the jacks are removed and the bridge decking is added the bridge becomes a truss arch bridge.
Such unsupported construction is only possible if suitable rock is available to support the tension in the upper chord of the span during construction, usually limiting this method to the spanning of narrow canyons.

In the 20th century, orcs most often refer to the creatures in J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth books.

They are long-toothed sea monsters.
Ludovico Ariosto (1474-1533)wrote an epic Orlando Furioso: There, the virgin Angelica is captured by a sea monster called orc.
The hero, Rogero, is able to free her as he rode a Hippogriff.
The Latin name of the Killer Whale, Orcinus orca is }likely to come from that story.
There is another creature called orc in Orlando Furioso: a blind man-eating giant who abducts King Norandin of Damascus and his lover Lucina.
This orc cannot be vanquished; only fooled by trickery.
There is another Orc that lives in the Alps.
It is a demon living on mountain tops.
It sometimes is described as protector of the forest.
At other times it is said to be an evil spirit who brings doom to cattle and wild beasts.

Azimuntium (Azimus, or Esimontou) was a fortified town in Thracian region near the Illyrian border of the Eastern Roman Empire (present day Greece).
The town is described by the Greek historian Priscus of Panium as the being the only one of the 182 forts and castles of Thrace to resist during the Attilan War of 443-446 AD and separately negotiating an exchange of captives with Attila after the peace was declared in 446 AD.
The town is thought by Priscus to have still been in existence up the reign of the Emperor Justinian after which it "extirpated by the jealousy of the Roman princes".
In Chapter 34 of his book "The history of the decline and fall of the Roman empire", Gibbons describes the town as follows:
were areas of  traditional local government in Japan before the Meiji period.
The function of districts has changed over time, but they continue to exist in contemporary Japan.
Districts are not all the same size.
They are roughly equivalent to a county in the United Kingdom or the United States.
They are smaller than prefectures and larger than towns and villages.
Until the 10th century, the chief government official of a district (gun) was called the gunji.
