Ancient Civilization Picture

Ancient Civilization Reflection

Paragraph #1- Explain what everything symbolizes in your picture.

The pipe cleaner and pompoms represented finished foods that are available for barter. We used the birdseed to represent our farmlands. Finally, we used the playdough to represent various things throughout our village, including people and weapons.

Paragraph #2- Explain the difference between a neolithic society and a Paleolithic society. Name one invention that assisted the most with this transition.

A paleolithic society is a hunter-gatherer society based in nomadism and limited resources. After the invention of agriculture, sedentary societies formed and people stayed in one spot generating resources rather than just using them up in one area.

Paragraph #3- After our discussion, What did your group forget to add in the civilization? If you did not forget anything, what was your thought process to determine what you’d need?

Early Pastoralists:

1. What are pastoralists? When, why, and in what areas did they emerge?

2. Describe pastoralist tribes and clans.

3. Describe gender equity in pastoral societies. What is an egalitarian society?

4. Describe the onset of Trade between nomadic and sedentary groups.

5. What impacts did pastoralists have on the environment?

Early Pastoralists Answers:

  1. Pastoralists are nomadic or semi-nomadic groups of people, who maintain the paleolithic lifestyle. After the Neolithic Revolution, they emerged in the grasslands and highlands of Eurasia, as the ground is less suitable for traditional farming.
  2. Pastoralist tribes and clans are extended families (clans) that, when grouped together, form tribes. These people travel together and work together to provide for themselves. They sometimes found inner or outer disputes that amounted to tribal warfare.
  3. Women tended to be more respected in pastoral societies, though men still took places of leadership due to the nature of tribal warfare. An egalitarian society is a society with equality between all groups of people.
  4. Pastoralists, due to their travels, acted as conduits of technology and ideas between sedentary societies, mutually benefiting both parties with trade.
  5. Nomadic lifestyles impacts the environment less visibly than arable farming does, but they do face overgrazing, scarcity due to drought, and conflict due to grazing on farmland.

Law of Manu: Brahmins (priests) are the highest and closest to god, next are the Kshatriya (warriors), then the Vaisya (merchants and farmers), and lastly the Shudra (menial laborers). This is from India and South Asia from the religion of Hinduism.

I believe that the religion that most oppresses women and give sthem the least equality is Hinduism because it believes that to be born a women is to be lower in karma than men, and are treated as such This was enforced by many Ancient Indian leaders and bureaucracies and further perpetuated the system of patriarchy.

Greece Answers:

The Greek people had poleis, or independent city-states within Greece. A centralized government was difficult to pull off due to the geography of the land. Some poleis were ruled by kings, oligarchs, and tyrants, but the citizens under these systems grew resentful of them until a new system was created by a man named Cleisthenes. This system was a government ruled by the votes of the citizens and was the first ever direct democracy.

These city-states worked together to fight off Perisian invaders, which eventually lef them to deal with the fall out of their victory. Two of the most powerful of these city-states with different lifestyles began conflicts known as the Peloponnesian Wars (between Athens and Sparta)

—------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our modern ideas of Democracy and classical art are heavily based on the Hellenistic influences of Ancient Greece. Our democracy may look different, such as using a representative system, but the founding ideologies can be attributed to classical Greece.

Rome Answers:

Rome first came into power after the fall of the Greek Empire, transitioning from a settlement to a sizeable empire. Rome started off as a marchy with kings to rule it, but the kings soon became corrupt and so the Roman Republic was born. This created ts own controversies, such as the conflicts between the patricians and the plebeians. The patricians tried to use thir wealth to influence legislation while the plebeians, who were the farmers and common people of Rome wanted to maintain a fair system. They established Trbunes of officials and their own assemblies to protect their rights within the government.

Eventually the republic dissolved and Rome saw the Triumvirate and dictators come to power. Augustus Caesar was the first emperor of Rome, and he too was assassinated by his own Senate. Rome had a tumultuous relationship with power from then out. The second triumvirate dissolved quickly after it construction and Octavian ushered in Pax Romana, or the era of peace.

This was however, quickly followed by a series of emperors who persecuted groups that threatened them, such as the Christians, to maintain power. The rule of Constantine, the first Roman emperor to convert to Christianity, ended this persecution.

After Rome was split by Constantine into the West and East, there was Schism which divided into two Christian denominations. Roman Catholics to the West and Eastern Orthodoxy to the East.

List your best Thesis Statement:

Although many trends go into and out of style very quickly, there have been many permanent evolutions of fashion due to economic changes, the emergence of younger generations, and the heightened influence of social media.

Reflection Answers (Must be detailed and at least one paragraph per response):

The neolithic revolution led to injustices due to the human desire for hierarchy after establishing permanent settlements. This created disparities between the roles of males and females as the stronger males established patriarchy over the women. Over the time of settlement religions formed that encouraged social stratification and influenced acts of hatred in the name of one’s faith. Eventually, the switch from bartering societies into money based economies created economic classes used to discriminate against others.

Early neolithic technology mainly had to do with agriculture due to it being the source of livelihood for so many permanent settlers. On example of this is the ox-driven iron plow, invented in the ancient Chinese Zhou dynasty. Another invention to do with the Neolithic revolution is the hoe, which was used in the agricultural process, which was thought to be invented in prehistoric Mesopotamia.

Interregional trade routes, such as the Silk Road the connected China to western civilizations, assisted the spread of religions and ideologies such as Buddhism and Taoism due to the cultural exchanges that naturally occur with trade. Cultural exchanges like these led to the origins of religions that used the ideologies of these other religions such as Hinduism after the Aryan invasion.

A centralized government has one central power ruling over the entire state or territory without subdividing or separating power into different regions. Centralized governments usually occur in smaller territories and states that are simpler to manage under one ruler. Decentralized governments have many different rulers (as in a confederation or federation) that rule over subdivided regions of a state of territory. Decentralized civilizations include classical Greece, which was made up of democratic city-states. Centralized governments are exemplified by the historic Mongolian Empire, which was usually ruled by one Khan and his advisors.

Codification- the written record of the precepts or tenets of a legal system or religion

Prehistoric- the period of time before written or recorded history

Hellenistic- the culture spread by the conquests of Alexander the Great, the classical Greek language, art, religion, and culture

Neolithic Revolution- The rise and spread of agriculture, leading to sedentary lifestyles and the development of civilizations

Early Pastoralists- the groups or tribes who continued to hunter-gatherer lifestyle and facilitated the first cultural exchanges and trade

Egalitarian- a society with a lack of inequality or oppression based on gender, race, or religion

SAQ Response:

  1. One continuity seen in the political system of China in the period of 1200 to 1750 is the emphasis on strong leadership during dynasties that take power following turmoil. After the second Warring States period and the rule of the foreign Yuan Dynasty, both the Sui and Ming Dynasties made efforts to return China back to order or a form of former glory. The Sui Dynasty in particular brought about the beginning of a Golden Age of innovation and culture in China.
  2. One change seen in the political systems of China in the period of 1200 to 1750 is the loosening or tightening of social standards based on the ruling dynasty. The Sui Dynasty was a looser predecessor to the Tang Dynasty, and allowed for more religious freedoms and social mobility than its successor.
  3. The continuity of having a competent ruling dynasty after the rise of the Sui Dynasty allowed for more consistent trade and expansion as each dynasty approached Chna with a wish to improve it for their own benefit. The Mongolian Yuan dynasty loosened social strictures but brought forth a prosperous economy by protecting the Silk Road and encouraging the development of specific skills.

Renaissance Answers:

  1. Prior to the Renaissance, the Church had all control on arts, education, and culture. The church grew corrupt from money flowing into monasteries, and monks becoming greedy. This shifted towards humanism and self-determinism as people built their own culture in Europe and started to distance themselves from the church.

  • Feudalism and agricultural society were the central social and political structures of Europe during the Dark Ages. As Kings started to gain and consolidate more power, the structure of Feudalism started to decline. Surplus goods and crops created a more trade-based society.

Food For Thought

Columbian Exchange Cook-off Reflection

  1. Explain the Grade Level project and what you are doing in each class.
  2. How did the field trip to NoMas and the High Museum prepare you for the cookoff?
  3. Describe the columbian Exchange. Also, describe the impact that the Columbian Exchange had on indigenous populations and culture.
  4. Was it difficult to cook with foods from one hemisphere? How did your food taste? What ingredients do you wish that you could add?
  5. What is your favorite meal? Explain the ingredients and what hemisphere each item comes from.

Reflection Answers:

Food for Thought is our Grade Level Project for the end of the year, and its purpose is to connect food to personal identity through creativity, reflection, and education.

In our History class, we are examining food’s connection to the historical event of the Columbian exchange. The Columbian Exchange created a vast amount of new dishes, as each hemisphere exchanged different crops and livestock. To study this, we had a Columbian Exchange cook-off in which participants brought ingredients from one of the hemispheres and were grouped randomly to create a dish that related to their hemisphere.

In Geometry, we are studying the statistical, scientific, and mathematical effects of food deserts on communities and working together to crate solutions. Using mapping and dilations, we are creating examples of possible solutions for real-life examples of food deserts and swamps in the Atlanta area.

We have been studying the ties between identity and food with our Literature section of the Food for Thought project. After reading “How The Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents”, we explored the character’s relationship to their identity as women, immigrants, wives, mothers, and sisters. Next, we worked within our groups to decide upon a recipe that tied to our collective identities. We also included one ingredient that was included in the Columbian Exchange. Lastly, we reflected upon how food can relate to one’s identity and culture.

For Chemistry, we tied our work closely to our literature project. In our Chemistry project, we worked to explain the chemical bonds that occurred in the process of cooking our recipe for our Literature project. This helped us tie in scientific fact to food.

Finally, for Art, we looked as the vessels and utensils that different cultures and identities used during and after the Columbian Exchange. Then in groups, we worked together to brainstorm and sketch ideas for our own place setting tied to the Columbian Exchange. We worked with clay to create our separate pieces of the lace settings, and then glazed them to create a visually appealing cohesive set. We also created a digital art placemat design based off of food available in our area.

Our field trip prepared me for the Food for Thought project by giving me physical examples of ceramic pieces that might inspire us for the art section of the project. The experience of No Mas gave me an idea of how recipes can tie to cultural identity and what chemical processes occur when food is being cooked.

The Columbian Exchange was a global potluck where the Old World and the New World brought their culinary specialties. They also exchanged plants, animals, and diseases. This cultural shift started with Christopher Columbus's voyages in the late 15th century, connecting previously isolated ecosystems.

In terms of impact on indigenous populations, it was a mixed bag. On one hand, they gained access to new crops and animals, transforming their diets and lifestyles. On the flip side, the introduction of diseases like smallpox, measles, and influenza decimated indigenous communities that lacked immunity. The cultural exchange was equally significant—ideas, technologies, and traditions were shared, creating a complex and evolving tapestry of global interconnectedness.

When I originally saw the ingredients my group had for the cook-off, I felt a bit hopeless about winning. However, as I thought, I decided to take some leadership and decided on a stir-fry for our group. We had a hard time communicating quietly, die to the arrogance of some groupmates, but in the end we pulled it together. I do wish I could have added proper chunks of chicken rather than cold-cut turkey.

My favorite meal is tomato soup. Tomatoes originate in the Western Hemisphere, and were brought to Italy to create some of their most iconic dishes during the Columbian Exchange. Cream and basil both originate from the Eastern Hemisphere, making tomato soup a blend of both hemispheres.

SHORT ANSWER QUESTION #1 ~

Political Revolutions Answer Parts a, b, and c using the following political revolutions.

American Revolution

French Revolution

Haitian Revolution

a. Identify ONE way in which The Enlightenment influenced the development of political revolutions in the period from 1750 – 1900.

The Enlightenment influenced the development of political revolutions in the period from 1750 to 1900 by forming the basis of the governments that developed after the revolutions. Enlightenment thinking encouraged governments with equal power to all citizens and checks of power. One example of this is the American government, which has 3 branches of government which have to ability to check each other's power and prevent absolutists government in one branch.

b. Identify and explain ONE similarity between two of the political revolutions listed above.

Both the French and Haitian revolutions featured violent revolts led by the oppressed population in its respective area. The French peasants and the Haitian slaves revolted against aristocrats and nobles in order to gain more or some natural rights. Both of these revolutions had notable names within the revolting party who had a background of oppression due to occupation or absolutism.

c. Identify and explain ONE difference between two of the political revolutions listed above.

The American Revolution lacked the “terror” phase that the French revolution experienced during the Jacobin Reign of Terror. The terror phase is part of the anatomy of a revolution, which is followed by the Thermidorian Reaction, or a period of peace. The American Revolution did not have a radical period of governmental operation during which people were persecuted. The French experienced the Reign of Terror, during which citizens were often sentenced to the death penalty for any vocal dissent of the First French Republic.

What is the Age of Absolutism? What caused it? What effect did it have? (16th to 18th century)

The age of Absolutism was a period in which monarch rulers exerted absolute power over their respective regions. This was caused by the Thirty Years war, which was a territorial war due to religion. The solution to this was to create separate Protestant and Catholic states, leaving individual states to more independently rule themselves. This age of absolutism led to the application of Enlightenment policies, the establishment of democracies, and many revolutions.

Major Events and explanation-

  • The Roaring 20s: wealth grew in the US from exports in WWI, and spending increased and started use of credit, but only the middle and upper class 13% of the population really benefited by the growth of wealth
  • Prohibition: xenophobia rose and immigrants began to be seen as a threat to the workforce and national security. Alcohol was prohibited as a way to preserve the US national reputation and alcohol was consumed and manufactured in secret. Organized crime increase.
  • The Great Depression: surplus production lead to a stock market crash which caused the Great Depression. High inventory created mass layoffs. Banks closed, incomes were cut in half, and farms went bankrupt. The Soviet Union escaped the Depression because its communist policies were not reliant on capitalist economies.
  • The New Deal: A plan by FDR to end the Depression by instating stimulus checks, loans to banks, public projects programs to generate new jobs, and the creation of a minimum wage.
  • Totalitarianism: the Soviet Union was represented as a strong state with a stable economy. Josef Stalin was a totalitarian rule who concentrated power into a small group of people, who organize themselves into a single party. This also included Italian Fascism, German Nazism, and Soviet Stalinism.

Networks of Exchange and what was exchanged. What were the continuities and changes from Period 1 to Period 2?

In Period 1, mainly luxury items were exchanged on land-based routes, while maritime routes had more capability of trading bulk goods like textiles, rice, and bananas. The trade of bulk items on sea-based routes continued into period 2 with the Columbian Exchange and the expansion of Indian Ocean trade. Land-based trade routes were used less going into period 2 because maritime technologies improved– like the Portuguese caravels used to take Columbus to the Americas. In both Period 1 and Period 2, ideas, belief systems, technologies, and diseases were exchanged through trade. In period 1, the Black Death was spread along the Silk Road during the Pax Mongolica. The unity under the Mongolian Empire increased the volume of trade and subsequently accelerated the spread of the bubonic plague. Disease was also spread in period 2 by way of the Columbian Exchange. The indigenous peoples of the Americas, who traded corn and other exclusively American goods for firearms, contracted smallpox and other European diseases which they did not have immunities to. Cultural exchange through trade also took place on trade routes in both Period 1 and 2. In period 1, expanded trade led to the rise of Islam and the appearance of syncretic religions like Sufism and Chan Buddhism. In period 2, the assimilationist ideals of European colonizers brought about native religions that syncretized with the Christianity that colonizers evangelized to the natives and the ethnic religious practices of the natives. One example of this is the religious practices of the Gulla Geechee people in modern southeast America.
