Captions available
The idea
The anchor argues Islam belongs to Western civilization; the exam files Byzantium and Islam under medieval history. Both were Rome's heirs, both traded with and fought the Latin West, both fell to the Ottomans, who then stood at Vienna in fifteen twenty-nine.
In practice
Entries 0818, 0840, 1002 and 1313.
Where people slip
The thesis is the anchor's, attributed; the placement is the exam's.
