Heraclius ruled the Byzantine Empire from AD 610 to 641, ascending to the throne after overthrowing the tyrannical emperor Phocas. Early in his reign, Heraclius faced significant challenges, including Persian invasions that overran large portions of Byzantine territory. In response, he reorganized the military and administration, revitalizing the empire's capacity for war. In AD 613, Heraclius crowned his son, Heraclius Constantine (later Constantine III), as co-emperor, a move aimed at securing dynastic continuity. By AD 628, Heraclius achieved a remarkable victory over the Persian Empire, reclaiming lost territories and recovering the True Cross, which he personally returned to Jerusalem in a celebrated triumph. Despite his military successes, Heraclius' later reign saw the emergence of a new and formidable threat: the rapid expansion of Islam. Following the death of the Prophet Muhammad, Arab forces began their conquests, taking Syria, Palestine, and Egypt from Byzantine control. Heraclius, weakened by illness and unable to mount an effective defense, witnessed the initial stages of this transformative shift in the region. Heraclius' legacy is one of both remarkable victories and the beginning of a long period of territorial contraction for the Byzantine Empire. His crowning of Heraclius Constantine as co-emperor highlighted his efforts to ensure stability, though the empire faced profound challenges after his death.

Unique Objects

Occasionally, two different bidders may show up in the bidding history with the same bid amount. This occurs when one user's bid is exactly the same as an automatic (maximum) bid placed by another user earlier. Since the auto-bid was placed first, this takes preference. The bidding history will show both bids, with the auto-bid ranked as the higher of the two.


Double bid

It may appear that the same bid has been placed by two different bidders. This can occur if someone places a bid in another currency which is then rounded to the same amount as the previous bid in %{local_currency}.

This can occur for the following reasons:
<p>1. If an opening bid does not meet a lot’s reserve price (hidden minimum), buyers may try outbidding their earlier bid in order to find that lot’s RP.</p>
<p>2. If an auto-bid (user-set maximum bid) is outbid, the bidding log will show the first and final steps of that user's auto-bid in a row. The new highest bid will be shown at the top.</p>

Why is this bidder outbidding him- or herself?
