Their subjects include a Minoan priest and priestess crushed in an earthquake while performing a human sacrifice; Lindow Man, the Iron Age body found in a peat bog near Manchester; King Midas of Phrygia who was reputed to have asses ears; and King Philip II of Macedon, the father of Alexander the Great.
