Roxbury High Fort is a historic fort site on Beech Glen Street at Fort Avenue in the Roxbury neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts. The site now contains a small park and the Cochituate Standpipe known as Fort Hill Tower, built in 1869; the fort site was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. The site inspired the name of the Fort Hill neighborhood; the Roxbury High Fort site once contained earthwork fortifications of the Continental Army during the Siege of Boston during the American Revolutionary War. At that time Roxbury was an independent town connected to Boston by a narrow neck of land; the hill offered a great vantage of the entire area. In 1868 Roxbury was annexed to Boston. In 1869, the 70-ft tall Cochituate Standpipe was built atop Fort Hill by the Cochichuate Water Company; the water tower was abandoned with other expansions to the Boston water system. By the 1960s, the tower fell into disrepair; the original cast iron balcony was removed. In the early 1980s the City of Boston restored the tower.
The area is today known as Highland Park. National Register of Historic Places listings in southern Boston, Massachusetts

The Zariphios School was a Greek educational institution established in 1875 in Plovdiv in the Ottoman Empire and now in Bulgaria. It became one of the most significant Greek educational centres in the region of Thrace, attracting teachers from Greece and Western Europe and existed until 1906; the Zariphios was one of the first schools of the Greek diaspora that introduced primary and secondary education for girls. Until the early 20th century, the Greek community was one of the three most numerous ethnic communities in Plovdiv, behind Bulgarians and Turks. Greek education was reached a peak in the 1880s. At that time the city hosted eight Greek language schools: one boys' school, three mutual education schools, one central, one district girls' schools and two pedagogical academies. There were two private parish schools with clerics as teachers. Zariphios was established in 1875 owing to an initiative of the Greek Education Committee of Thrace and the sponsorship of the banker and benefactor from Istanbul Georgios Zariphis, one of the prominent personalities in the Ottoman capital's business life at the time.
Additionally, Zariphis offered an annual amount of 1,000 pounds for the school's needs. The school soon became a well known educational institution for Greek communities inside and outside the region of Eastern Rumelia and Thrace. To increase its authority and prestige, the Zariphios increased its contacts with prominent educational institutions in Greece and Western Europe. Moreover, it attracted university teachers in the fields of philology and theology from the capital of the Greek state, Athens, as well as music teachers from France and Germany. From 1881, the Zariphios and the rest of the Greek schools in the city synchronized their curriculum with the schools in Greece, while from 1885 they issued certificates identical to those of high schools in Greece. In 1906, Greek-Bulgarian antagonism over the Macedonian Question led to the departure of the majority of the Greek community, their schools had to close, the remaining female students of the Zariphios attended the local French college of Saint Augustine.

Shatrughna spelled as Shatrughan was the youngest brother of Lord Rama in the Hindu epic Ramayana. He is twin brother of Lakshmana. According to Valmiki Ramayana, Shatrughna is one half component of manifest Vishnu. Shatrughna appears as the 412th name of Vishnu in Vishnu Sahasranama of Mahabharata. According to the Ramayana, Rama is the seventh avatar of Vishnu while Lakshmana and Shatrughna are considered as part-incarnations of Sheshanaga and Sudarshana chakra respectively. Shatrughna was born to the virtuous king of Ayodhya and his third wife, Queen Sumitra, princess of Kashi. Dasharatha's other two wives and Kaikeyi, had sons as well. Kaushalya had Kaikeyi had Bharata, who were Shatrughna's half-brothers. Shatrughna's twin brother was Lakshmana. Shatrughna was married to daughter of Kushadhwaja, Janaka's younger brother. Thus, Shrutakirti was Sita's cousin, they had two sons - Subahu. When Rama is exiled, Shatrughna drags Kaikeyi's old nurse Manthara and makes an attack to kill her, but he is restrained by Bharata who feels that Rama would not approve.
Bharata asks him to come back to Ayodhya but Rama refuses. Bharata rules Ayodhya from Nandigramam and is an excellent leader referred to as the avatar of dharma. Though Bharata was the king designate of Ayodhya during Rama's exile, it was Shatrughna who took care of the administration of the whole kingdom, during Rama's absence. Shatrughna was the only solace for the three Queen mothers during the absence of Rama and Bharata from Ayodhya. Manthara appears only once in Ramayana after Rama's banishment. Having been rewarded by Kaikeyi with costly clothing and jewels, she is walking in the palace gardens when Bharata and his half-brother Shatrughna come upon her. Seeing her, Shatrughna flies into a violent rage over Rama's banishment and assaults her murderously. Kaikeyi begs Bharata to save her, which he does, telling Shatrughna that it is a sin to kill a woman and that Rama would be furious with them both if he does such a thing, he relents and the brothers leave, while Kaikeyi attempts to comfort Manthara.
Although he plays a minor role in the Ramayana, Shatrughna is important to the main story and goal of the epic. His chief exploit is the killing of Lavanasura the demon King of Mathura, a nephew of Ravana, the King of Lanka, slain by Rama. Lavanasura was the son of the pious demon-king after whom the city of Mathura was named. Madhu's wife and Lavanusara's mother Kumbhini was sister of Ravana. Lavanasura was holder of the divine Trishula of Lord Shiva and nobody was able to kill him or prevent him from committing sinful activities. Shatrughna begged Rama and his elder brothers to allow him the opportunity to serve them by killing Lavanasura. Shatrughna killed the great demon with an arrow imbibed with the power of Vishnu. After Lavanasura's death, Rama crowned him King of Mathura. After Rama, the seventh Avatar of Vishnu completes 11, 000 years of pious rule upon earth, he walks into the river Sarayu to return to his true and eternal Mahavishnu form. Bharata and Shatrughna merge into Mahavishnu.
