Why was it the worst of times for zacharias?
Im sorry to say that I don't quite understand the question, as their were many who bore the name Zacharias (also spelt Zechariah), under the Christian dispensation and the Jewish dispensation before that. If it should be of any help, there was a Jewish king named Zachariah who reigned for a short period, possibly only a few months approximately 750BC. He was murdered and his throne assumed by Shallum, who installed himself as the new King of Israel.

How old is the legend of the Greek goddess Artemis?
All greek goddess date back to around about 7000 BC, when the original inhabitants of Greece were primarily farmers (this is around the time that the originally densely forested land was mostly cut down). They were originally local fertility spirits, so it could have been any number of local myths that combined. This developed into the Minoan civilization. The shape of the myths we have today began to form into individuals around the time of the invasion of the achaens, which became the Mycenaean civilization. Essentially the acheans were a highly patriarchal warrior society with male sky gods. A lot of the legends around the male gods dominated the females is thought to be a reflection of the two cultures merging around 2000 BC. The Mycenaean civilsation lasted (if I remember correctly) about 1000 years. Through the dark ages writing and many other elements were lost. A lot of the mythical development from poets and bards like Homer (his poems were recorded around 750BC but they could have been circulating a lot earlier), because they wandered a lot and they were responsible for remembering and carrying on a great many myths and stories, Artemis is mentioned in the Illiad, and by that point is pretty firmly established. There's also the different aspects of Artemis. She's associated with Selene, the goddess of the moon, associated with Apollo and other aspects of healing, with Hera and Hestor for her involvement in childbirth, with Demeter for her involvement in fertility - interesting she was a virgin goddess, which is one of the few elements about her that aren't contradictory. So depending on your view, she could be about 3000 years old or 9000, or even older, since most beliefs are an evolutionary process, you could probably date the ideas she and other goddess came from back to the neolithic era, probably further back since she embodies the hunt, wild animals and the moon, all of which were of major importance to prehistoric societies.
When were cosmetics invented?
Eye MakeupWomen from Egypt and Mesopotamia used henna dye to paint their hands and feet. They also painted their eyes with an eye shadow called kohl which was prepared from lead ore, malachite and antimony. The belief was that painting the eyes would give protection by driving away danger but in actual fact this concoction was poisonous and may well have caused problems with the eyes, or even death after long term use. Kohl was also painted along the outlines of the eyes just like eyeliner is used today. The Romans preferred to use gold-colored eye shadow which was made from saffron and painted onto the area around the sides and under their eyes. Then they used powdered wood ash to color their eyelids black. This gold color was quite significant at the time because they saw themselves as the rulers of the Mediterranean.Nail Polish-Nefertiti, Queen of Egypt, started a trend that was to last thousands of years, by painting her fingernails and toenails with a kind of red lacquer. In those days only royalty was allowed to wear red, and painting the nails was a very extraordinary idea indeed.Lipstick and RougeCleopatra was Queen of Egypt and as such permitted to wear red face make-up, which she used as rouge on her cheeks and painted onto her lips.Hair DyeThe first documented evidence of women using hair dye comes from the Greeks of 750BC. Women dyed their hair black. Queen Elizabeth I dyed her hair red, plucked her eyebrows and whitened her skin. She was the first ever English Queen to see herself as she really looked, in a mirror.Cold CreamGreek physician Galen made a concoction of water, olive oil and beeswax, which was designed to soothe and cool the skin. It worked by rubbing it in until the water evaporated, so cooling the skin down. Today's modern cold cream recipes are more or less the same as this.Unisex MakeupNero, who was then the Roman Emperor, got together with his wife, Poppaea, and they used lead and chalk to whiten their skin, decorated their eyes with kohl and rouged their cheeks to look beautiful for each other.First Beauty BookThe Roman poet, Ovid, wrote the world's first book on cosmetics. He advised that a face-pack made from barley flour, egg and mashed up narcissus bulbs would promote healthy, smooth-looking skin.Powdered RoomsBoth men and women of the fashionable set in eighteenth century Britain, had powder rooms created exclusively for them. The powder room was once exactly that, and they powdered their hair, wigs and faces in these specially provided areas. Women wore gloves in bed and placed oiled cloths on the forehead to prevent wrinkles.Pimple Cover upDuring the Restoration in England, it became fashionable for women to paint their faces and then apply little star, moon and sun shaped black patches. It is said that the Duchess of Newcastle set the trend when she used the method to cover up the numerous blotches on her face.Makeup RevolutionAvon-David McConnell was trying to sell anthologies of Shakespeare's works by knocking on doors in US. He decided to give away a free gift of a bottle of perfume to get people interested. His customers turned out to prefer the perfume to the books.

Just over 50 years later he renamed the company to Avon after the name of the river which ran through the center of Stratford-on-Avon, in England, where the poet was born.Television-In the 1920's, the age of the movies was launched in Hollywood and prominent actresses became very influential. The studio make-up created beautiful faces that most girls wanted to copy. Sales of cosmetic soared and the ranges of products increased. Arched eyebrows, cupid lips and bright colors were fashionable.
