I have recently found need to know these to things, please inform me if you can.
First Question: On the Isle of Aegea, there was (apparently) a temple to the Goddess (I assume) Aphia (Or something like that) who the heck is she?
Second (More important) question: During the Middle Ages, what types of Siege Weapons were used in China?
Please give me any answers you can, thank you.

second is a lot harder-the tang dynasty was cavalry based and fought mostly horse peoples ( turks,ect.. ) not a whole lot of seiges there:( the period ends with the sung/song dynasty who were not agressive but hid in giant fortress cities, so they were the beseiged,not the beseigers. found the name of a book on the subject for you--seige weapons of the far east 612-1300 by stephen turnbull
