The Deep Dive š Maya in Sicily: A Timeless Journey
This Deep Dive explores excerpts from "Maya and Plato" that introduceĀ Maya, an ageless and influential figure, as she prepares to guideĀ Alexander the Great's educationĀ alongside Aristotle, prompted by Plato. We learn of Maya's long history, including memories ofĀ Cyrus, and her decision to move to Sicily, selling her successful merchant business in Athens to her trusted manager,Ā Selene. Plato, impressed by Maya, sends her toĀ SicilyĀ as a political emissary to assistĀ Dionysius IIĀ in maintaining his power. Upon her arrival, Dionysius II gifts herĀ ancient gold coinsĀ with Etruscan symbols, originally crafted from meteor rocks by Demaratus, which Maya laterĀ buries for a future purpose, connecting her actions to a legacy spanning millennia. The narrative concludes with Maya's departure for Rome, poised to continue shaping theĀ destiny of empires.
