You might think, given the intervening millennia, that we would already have found most of the world's ancient treasures, but new artefacts and monuments are still being unearthed every year. From Iron Age hoards and rare biblical inscriptions to lost desert cities and even the skeletons of huge sea dragons, the past few years have shed dazzling new light on the distant past.
The Monad , from Greek for "the One," is a fundamental concept in philosophy and mysticism, representing the ultimate, indivisible source of all reality, a Supreme Being, or the totality of existence, appearing in Pythagorean, Platonic, Neoplatonic, Gnostic, and Leibnizian thought as the source of number, divine unity, or spiritual substance from which all reality emanates, often symbolized by a circled dot. It signifies the singular, fundamental unit of being, whether as God, pure potential, or the smallest spiritual particle, differing from physical "atoms" by being incorporeal and vital.
