The peribolos, the space between the inner and outer walls. To the left and right of the Belgrade Gate / Xylokerkos Gate the walls have been intensively restored.
The Theodosian Walls were situated between the Sea of Marmara and the Golden Horn and have a length of 6.5 km.
The walls were completed in 413 during the reign of Theodosius II (408–50). The wall was given his name, but was actually built under the supervision of Anthemius of Byzantium, a praefectus praetorio of the Eastern Roman Empire.
From 439 onwards, the sea walls were built along the Golden Horn and the Sea of Marmara (Propontis), thus walling the entire peninsula on which the city was situated.
The Theodosian Walls consisted of:
- the main inner wall (5 meters thick and 12 meters high); this was separated by a terrace (peribolos) from
- the lower outer wall (2 meters thick and 8.5 meters high).
An outer terrace, the parateichion, extended between the outer wall and the moat. The moat was about 20 m (66 ft) from the outer wall. The moat itself was over 20 m (66 ft) wide and as much as 10 m (33 ft) deep, with a 1.5 m (5 ft) high crenellated wall on the inside, which served as a first line of defense.
Access to the outer wall from the city was provided through the main gates at the base of the towers of the inner wall. The outer wall also had towers, which were placed about halfway between the towers of the inner wall. They were spaced at a distance of 48–78 m (150–250 ft) from each other. Of the towers of the outer wall, 62 have survived.
The walls of Constantinople were notoriously impregnable throughout the Middle Ages. Greek engineers used a much more effective construction technique than others in the Middle Ages. The walls in the Byzantine Empire were usually not solid, but consisted of double walls filled with rubble, which allowed gaps to be quickly repaired. Numerous armies of Bulgarians, Avars, Kipchaks, Russians, Galatians and Arabs failed to penetrate the walls. The first breach of the walls came in 1204, when the Fourth Crusade laid the city to waste. Two centuries later, the city had not yet recovered from the damage of the Crusade, and in 1453, after a relatively short siege, it fell into the hands of the Turkish Ottomans.

Gli allevamenti intensivi sono responsabili di inquinamento ambientale, inquinamento delle falde acquifere, zoonosi, antibiotico-resistenza. Inoltre, causano un consumo eccessivo di risorse terrestri essenziali: acqua e suolo. Gli animali vi conducono una breve vita senza alcun riguardo per la loro etologia. Il benessere animale non è compatibile con il profitto: diventa vegan!

Well, I have finished the year in much the same way as I started it - with a hard drive failure on my laptop ! Fortunately, two days in intensive care seem to have brought it back to life, and having tested pretty much everything that I use on it, we look good to go again, so maybe I shall allow myself a moment of merriment ....
This was the result of the scanner test, so I hope to press on with much more over the festive period, as I will be going nowhere ! Strictly speaking, this wasn't taken at Christmas - well, it wasn't at all, it was March 1985, but when you are driving over Snake Pass Summit in a VR in a snowstorm, what are you going to do ? Yes, pause for a photo-shoot, of course. The summit itself was just behind us, but that didn't seem a sensible place to stop (was anywhere, though ?), so we moved down a bit. It wasn't troubling anyone though, as no sane person was out driving in those conditions - just some bus nuts in a VR !
Many thanks to the ever-intrepid Eric Wain for having the idea in the first place, and then having to stay at the wheel for the duration. I can't recall now if he did nip out for a quick picture himself, I do hope he did.
Best wishes to all for the festive season, and beyond into 2021, and thanks for looking in over the year. I hope you all stay healthier than my laptop, and technology permitting, I will try to churn out more of this stuff next year.
