Ageladas or Hagelaedas was a celebrated Greek sculptor, who flourished in the latter part of the 6th and the early part of the 5th century BC. Ageladas' fame is enhanced by his having been the instructor of the three great masters, Phidias and Polykleitos; the determination of the period when Ageladas flourished has given rise to a great deal of discussion, owing to the contradictory statements of the writers who mention his name. Pausanias states that Ageladas cast a statue of Cleosthenes with the chariot and charioteer placed at Olympia. At Olympia, there were statues by Ageladas of Timasitheus of Delphi and Anochus of Tarentum. Timasitheus was put to death by the Athenians for his participation in the attempt to overthrow the tyrant Isagoras during the 68th Olympiad in 507. According to Eusebius, Anochus was a victor in the games of the 65th Olympiad. Therefore, if Ageladas was born about 540, he may well have been the instructor of Phidias. On the other hand, Pliny says that Ageladas, with Polykleitos and Myron, flourished in the 87th Olympiad.

This agrees with the statement of the scholiast on Aristophanes, that at Melite there was a statue of Heracles, the work of Ageladas the Argive, set up during the great pestilence at the 87th Olympiad. To these authorities must be added a passage of Pausanias, where he speaks of a statue of Zeus made by Ageladas for the Messenians of Naupactus; this must have been after the year 455, when the Messenians were allowed by the Athenians to settle at Naupactus. In order to reconcile these conflicting statements, it has been argued that Pliny's date is wrong and that the statue of Heracles had been made by Ageladas long before it was set up at Melite. Other scholars think that Pliny's date is correct, but that Ageladas did not make the statues of the Olympic victors mentioned by Pausanias until many years after their victories. Given that the dates of those individuals' victories are so nearly the same, this could be argued as being a extraordinary coincidence; the most probable solution of the difficulty is that proposed by Friedrich Thiersch, who thinks that there were two artists of this name: one an Argive, the instructor of Phidias, born about 540.

Thiersch supports this hypothesis by an able criticism of a passage of Pausanias. Other scholars assume that there were two artists with the name of Ageladas. Ageladas the Argive executed one of a group of three Muses, representing the presiding geniuses of the diatonic and enharmonic styles of Greek music. Canachus and Aristocles of Sicyon made the other two; this article incorporates text from a publication now in the public domain: Smith, William, ed.. "Ageladas".

Despite England winning 7–0, Houghton was replaced for the next match of the tournament by Thomas Coop, who himself was uncapped before the match, it would take four years for Houghton to win his second cap, when he was chosen for the 1896 Home Nations Championship. This was a key match for England, as it was the first international after the formation of the Northern League, the selectors were now unable to call upon a large number of former players who had now turned professional.

Houghton by this time had switched clubs from Runcorn to Birkenhead Wanderers, on 4 January 1896 he was called upon to face Wales in the opening game of the Championship, the match was a one-sided affair after the talented Welsh three-quarters, Owen Badger, broke his collar bone within the first fifteen minutes and was forced to leave the pitch. England went on to win 25–0. Despite being called back into the England team, being selected for the second match of the 1896 Championship against Ireland, Houghton switched codes before the 1 February fixture, joining his old club Runcorn. Runcorn who were a union team had turned professional in 1895, by signing back to the club, Houghton was now considered a professional footballer, could therefore never represent a rugby union team at club, county, or country level. ESPN states Samuel Houghton's date of birth as 16 August 1870, whereas FreeBMD quotes the birth as being registered during first ¼ 1870

In the New Kingdom of Egypt, the Medjay were an elite paramilitary police force, serving as desert scouts and protectors of areas of Pharaonic interest. The Egyptian term mḏꜣ from which the name "Medjay" was derived referred to a region in northern Sudan and southern Egypt inhabited by an ancient nomadic tribe of Beja nomads who were employed by the Egyptians as mercenaries, they formed a complex public administration similar to a national police force. The term came to describe their force itself. During the Middle Kingdom of Egypt, ancient Egyptians were appreciative of their skill in combat, therefore employed them as gauchos, infantry soldiers and explorers to spy on foreigners at the borders. During the Eighteenth Dynasty, the Medjay were referred to as an urban police with a separate hierarchy independent of other authorities; the Medjay are no longer mentioned after the Twentieth Dynasty. The first mention of the Medjay in written records dates back to the Old Kingdom, when they were listed among other Nubian peoples in the Autobiography of Weni, at the time a general serving under Pepi I Meryre.

During this time the term "Medjay" referred to people from the land of Medja, a district thought to be located just east of the Second Nile Cataract in Nubia. A decree from Pepi I's reign, which lists different officials, illustrates that Medja was at least to some extent subjugated by the Egyptian government. During the Middle Kingdom, the definition of "Medjay" started to refer more to a tribe than a land. Written accounts such as the Semna Despatches detail the Medjay as nomadic desert people; as itinerant peoples, they worked in all parts of Egyptian society, as palace attendants, temple employees and more. The Medjay worked in Egyptian fortifications in Nubia and patrolled the desert along with other Egyptian soldiers, like the Akhwty, they were sometimes employed as soldiers. And during the Second Intermediate Period, they were used during Kamose's campaign against the Hyksos and became instrumental in making the Egyptian state into a military power. In the archaeological record, a culture known as the Pan-Grave Culture is considered by experts to represent the Medjay.

This culture is named for its distinctive circular graves, found throughout Lower Nubia and Upper Egypt, which date to the late Middle Kingdom and Second Intermediate Period. The sudden appearance of these graves in the Nile Valley suggests that they represent an immigrant population, while the presence of Nerita shells in many of them suggests their occupants came from the Eastern Desert between the Nile and the Red Sea. Other objects found in these graves include the painted skulls of various horned animals, which are found either arranged in a circle around the burial pit or placed in separate offering pits. By the Eighteenth Dynasty during the New Kingdom, the Medjay were an elite paramilitary police force. No longer did the term refer to an ethnic group, over time the new meaning became synonymous with policing in general; as an elite force, the Medjay were used to protect valuable areas areas of pharaonic interest like capital cities, royal cemeteries, the borders of Egypt. Though they are best known for their protection of the royal palaces and tombs in Thebes and the surrounding areas, the Medjay were used throughout Upper and Lower Egypt.

Each regional unit had its own captains. Chiefs of the Medjay are known from the New Kingdom, but that title is more to refer to a person in charge of building and building material procurement. At first, the group just consisted of ethnic Medjay and those descended from that ancient tribal group; this changed over time as more Egyptians took up their occupation. Records show that various Medjay captains had Egyptian names and were depicted as such. Why this change occurred is not known, but it is assumed that, because of the Medjay's elite status, Egyptians joined them. After the 20th Dynasty, the term Medjay is no longer found in Egyptian records, it is unknown whether the Medjay as an occupation had been abolished or the name of the force had changed. However, there is speculation that a group of people called the Meded who fought against the Kush during the 5th and 4th centuries B. C. might have been related to the Medjay. In the 1932 film The Mummy, the Medjay are mentioned as Pharaoh Seti I's personal bodyguards in ancient Egypt.

They are mentioned in the 1999 remake The Mummy, the sequel The Mummy Returns. In the 2017 video game Assassin's Creed Origins, the protagonist, Bayek, is considered "the last Medjay", acting as a "sheriff" throughout first century BCE Egypt. Linguistic evidence indicates that the Medjay spoke an ancient Cushitic language related to the Cushitic Beja language and that the Blemmyes were a subdivision of the Medjay. Rilly mentions historical records of a powerful Cushitic speaking group which controlled Lower Nubia and some cities in Upper Egypt. Rilly states: "The Blemmyes are another Cushitic speaking tribe, or more a subdivision of the Medjay/Beja people, attested in Napatan and Egyptian texts from the 6th century BC on." On page 134: "From the end of the 4th century until the 6th century AD, they held parts of Lower Nubia and some cities of Upper Egypt." He mentions the linguistic relationship between the modern Beja language and the ancient Cushitic Blemmyan language which dominated Lower Nubia and that the Blemmyes can be regarded as a particular tribe of the Medjay: "The Blemmyan language is so c
