The Olmecs were the earliest known civilization in Mexico, known for giant carved stone heads. They flourished from 1400 BC to 400 BC before disappearing. The Aztecs ruled central Mexico from 1100-1522 AD, building cities like Tenochtitlan. They had a complex religion involving human sacrifice. They were conquered by the Spanish in 1521. The Mayas occupied the Yucatan peninsula from 1800 BC to 900 AD, developing an accurate calendar, hieroglyphic writing, and advanced math. They built great stone cities before their decline.
The document provides an overview of early civilizations in the Americas from 2500 BCE to 1500 CE. It describes how the first peoples migrated to the Americas across the Bering Strait land bridge. Early societies developed agriculture, with maize becoming a key crop. Notable early civilizations included the Olmec in Mesoamerica, known for pyramid building and trade networks. Later, the Maya developed advanced mathematics and astronomy, building large cities before their civilization declined. In North America, mound building cultures like the Hopewell and Mississippian peoples constructed earthworks for ceremonial and burial purposes.
1. Africa produced early art forms like the terracotta figures from the Nok culture in Nigeria from around 500 BCE. Later cultures like the Yoruba and Benin in Nigeria created naturalistic bronze sculptures honoring kings and queens.
2. Art in Oceania reflected shared beliefs across islands like the importance of ancestors and nature spirits. Sculptures from places like the Solomon Islands and Easter Island served protective spiritual functions.
3. Indigenous groups across the Americas created art tied to religious ceremonies and traditions, including totem poles by Northwest Coast peoples, kachina dolls of the Southwest US, and monumental architecture by Pre-Columbian civilizations in Mesoamerica and South America like
Paleolithic - Nomadic hunter-gatherers who lived in caves or huts and created cave paintings and tools from stone.
Neolithic - Settlements emerged as humans transitioned to an agricultural lifestyle, growing crops and domesticating animals. Rock art depicted hunting and ceremonies.
Metal Ages - The emergence of metallurgy led to stronger tools and weapons from copper, bronze and iron. Trade increased and the first cities developed with specialized labor and hierarchical societies. Megalithic monuments like stone circles and dolmens were constructed.
Chapter 9 euroean outreach and expansionKaren Owens
- Marco Polo traveled to China in the late 13th century and his account of his travels, published as a book, became very popular in Europe.
- Christopher Columbus sailed for Spain in 1492 and his discovery of the Americas led to major European colonization of the region.
- Native peoples across North and South America developed rich cultural traditions including architecture, art, religion, and oral histories despite lacking written languages. Many advanced civilizations arose, such as the Olmecs, Maya, Aztec, and Inca empires.
- Beginning in the 15th and 16th centuries, European powers like Spain conquered and colonized the Americas, destroying many indigenous cultures and disrupting long established societies
This document provides an overview of ancient Chinese civilization. It covers topics such as the major dynasties that ruled (Shang, Zhou, Qin, Han), geography (rivers, mountains), cities and architecture (Forbidden City, pagodas), art forms (calligraphy, silk, porcelain), inventions (paper, printing, gunpowder), and the economy (silk road trade).

Nan Madol is an ancient ruined city located on Pohnpei Island in Micronesia. It consists of 92 artificial islands built from basalt rocks in a lagoon connected by canals. It served as the royal capital and ceremonial center for the Sau Deleur dynasty from 1100-1628 CE. The islands were arranged in a strategic pattern to take advantage of prevailing winds and separated social classes. Nan Madol had no fresh water or food supply on site, so residents relied on resources brought by boat from the mainland, which eventually led to its decline. The city showcases impressive stonework and engineering skills for its time.
This document summarizes the origins and cultures of various indigenous peoples of the Americas, including their locations, subsistence patterns, and some key cultural aspects.

1. Art is a primarily visual medium used to express human experience and ideas about the world.
2. Early art from the Paleolithic period included small sculptures like the Venus of Willendorf that may have represented fertility. Neolithic art included large megalithic structures like Stonehenge.
3. Greek art emphasized naturalism and the human form. Roman art incorporated Greek influences while commemorating historical events through structures like the Colosseum. Gothic cathedrals used flying buttresses and stained glass to open interior spaces.
Paleolithic, Neolithic, and Metal Ages were the main periods of Prehistory. During Paleolithic, nomadic hunter-gatherers lived in caves and used stone tools. In Neolithic, the development of agriculture led to permanent settlements like villages and new tools. The Metal Ages brought new technologies like copper, bronze and iron tools as well as the first cities with specialized labor and social hierarchy.
The Aztecs settled in central Mexico around 1325 and built the magnificent city of Tenochtitlan, which had over 200,000 residents at its height. They developed advanced agricultural techniques like floating gardens to support their large population. The Aztecs were a warrior culture that carried out frequent human sacrifices of war captives to appease their gods according to their religious beliefs. In 1521, the Spanish conquistador Hernando Cortés, with only 500 soldiers but aided by thousands of Aztec enemies, was able to defeat the Aztec empire using firearms and cannons that the Aztecs had no defense against.
The document provides an overview of prehistoric art from the Paleolithic to Neolithic periods. It discusses definitions of key terms and examines art from different time periods and regions, including sculptures of female figures from the Upper Paleolithic, cave paintings from the Paleolithic, and developments in materials, techniques, and subjects in Neolithic art like narrative paintings at Çatalhöyük. The document also explores early civilizations in Mesopotamia like Sumer and the origins of writing in ancient Near East cultures.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
