Did the ancient egyptians have brothels?

Most Egyptians of high rank, like nobles and viziers had a type of harem. Lower classes like district governors, scribes and artisans usually chose women from the lower classes (i.e: Farmers and slaves) and held them in their homes, even if they were already wed. Brothels and prostitution houses didn't come about for another couple centuries. The soldiers were given whatever the governors, scribes or artisans either grew bored with or no longer needed.


How were theodora influence changes in byzantine law?

Theodora participated in Justinian's legal reforms. She became a champion of women's rights by banning forced prostitution, closing brothels, creating a convent which was a refuge for ex-prostitutes, instituting the death penalty for rape, improving the property rights of women and their rights in divorce, giving women the right of guardianship over their children and forbidding the killing of adulterous wives. Theodora disagreed with her husband on religious matters. Whilst he supported mainstream Christianity, she supported the Miaphysite dissident doctrine. She founded a monastery which was a shelter for the leaders of this sect who had been excommunicated or exiled by her husband. She outmanoeuvred him and had a Miaphysite enthroned as the Patriarch of Alexandria and Coptic Pope (Justinian had him exiled later). Theodora was accused of supporting heresy and thus undermined the unity of Christianity.


How did the Turks treat the people they conquered?

Absolutely horribly. With extreme cruelty, barbarity and savagery. The men were sometimes forced to work for the Japanese as slave laborers. Women were raped and then killed, or forced to be "comfort women" (prostitutes) for the Japanese Army, in Army-operated brothels. At least they were not murdered immediately. Everybody else in Asia despises the Japanese to this day, not just for what they did, but for the fact that they won't admit it, and see nothing wrong in what they did. See the "Rape of Nanking", where Japanese troops were allowed free rein for six weeks after capturing that Chinese city. 300,000 Chinese civilians died in those next six weeks in Nanking.


What buildings have been found in pompeii after the eruption?

Just about all the buildings one would expect to find in an ancient town have been found in Pompeii. That's what makes it so interesting. There were many private houses, both large and small, brothels, bakeries, public latrines, the amphitheater, gladiatorial barracks, public buildings and temples. Of course many of these buildings are in various states of preservation. The streets, with their crossing stones have also been dug out and also the water works.
