About this listen

This Deep Dive explores excerpts from "Maya and Plato" that introduce Maya, an ageless and influential figure, as she prepares to guide Alexander the Great's education alongside Aristotle, prompted by Plato. We learn of Maya's long history, including memories of Cyrus, and her decision to move to Sicily, selling her successful merchant business in Athens to her trusted manager, Selene. Plato, impressed by Maya, sends her to Sicily as a political emissary to assist Dionysius II in maintaining his power. Upon her arrival, Dionysius II gifts her ancient gold coins with Etruscan symbols, originally crafted from meteor rocks by Demaratus, which Maya later buries for a future purpose, connecting her actions to a legacy spanning millennia. The narrative concludes with Maya's departure for Rome, poised to continue shaping the destiny of empires.
