About Conrad Jalowski
(Top Expert on this page)

Expertise
I specialize in the Minoan (Eteocretan) autarchy: 3650-1100 BCE of Gortya, Lyttus and Knossus, and its other peripherals; the Phocaeans 2100-146 BCE (most notably the Peloponnesian War: 431-404 BCE); the Theban hegemony: 371-362 BCE under Epaminondas, Philip II's Macedonian extension to the Grecian ecumene for his despotate from 351-338 BCE, the 'Successors' to Alexander III 'Eupator' of Macedonia: 335-146 BCE, the Carthaginian Oligarchy: (during the Second Punic War: 219-201 BCE), the Roman struggle between Gnaeus Pompeius 'Magnus' and Gaius Julius Caesar: 49-45 BCE, and the campaigns of Flavius Belisarius of the Grecian Byzantine Empire in its early zeitgeist: 330-610 CE, from the tetrarchy to Basileus Heraclius: 610-641 CE.

Experience
Amateur historian of Hellenistic studies. (I have written multifarious fugacious conjectural emendations on the concepts of empire from apogee to nadir, from apotheosis to subjugation.) Examples: Hellenistic Despotates: 335-146 BCE, the Roman Principate: 27 BCE-96 CE and Dominate: 96-476/1453 CE, and the Libyo-Phoenicians: 814-146 BCE.)
