Defects Of Foreign Architectures In Afghanistan
This document discusses the defects of using foreign architecture in Afghanistan. It notes that architecture must consider the local climate, culture, and needs of the people. However, in recent decades the use of foreign designs has increased in Afghanistan. This can negatively impact the local culture by not respecting privacy norms or using unsuitable materials. Foreign designs also often do not account for Afghanistan's colder climate. The document recommends establishing architecture programs in schools and universities to teach about Afghan architecture history and modern designs suited to the local context. This will help preserve local culture and designs while meeting functional needs.

Around 600 AD, waves of invaders were sweeping across Europe, plunging the region into a period of decline known as the Middle Ages. During this time, Europe was a fragmented collection of small kingdoms. One of the most powerful to emerge was the Frankish kingdom, established by Clovis in the 5th century. In the 800s, Charlemagne united much of Western Europe under the Carolingian Empire and revived classical learning, but the empire fragmented after his death. Europe was later invaded by Vikings, Magyars, and Muslims, threatening the survival of fledgling states.

Alfred Wegener first proposed the theory of continental drift in 1915, hypothesizing that 200 million years ago the continents were joined together in a supercontinent called Pangaea. Pangaea began breaking apart in the late Triassic period, forming the continents of Gondwanaland and Laurasia separated by the Tethys Sea. By the end of the Cretaceous period the continents had separated into their modern positions. Wegener published his theory of continental drift and the existence of Pangaea in his 1915 book.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Cultural symbols of dacians
- 1. CULTURAL SYMBOLS OF DACIANS
- 2. The Dacians were an Indo-European people, part of or related to the Thracians. Dacians were the ancient inhabitants of Dacia, located in the area in and around the Carpathian Mountains and west of the Black Sea.
- 3. The territory of Dacia, the Getae's country, was roughly that of today's Romania, Moldova, Hungary and parts of Bulgary and Ukraine. During the reign of king Burebista (1st century BC), the western border advanced to the Constanta lake, situated in today's Switzerland.
- 4. The father of history, Herodot, mentions the Dacians in his works as "the bravest and fairest of all the Thracians". He also says that "the Thracian people is the most numerous one in the world; the Thracians have several names, according to their specific regions, but their habits are more or less the same".
- 5. RELIGION The Dacians were a warrior people, and their polytheist religion saw death as a liberation. Their belief in the supreme god Gebeleizis made them fearless on the battlefield, and this virtue was passed on even after the old religion was replaced by the cult of Zalmoxe.
- 6. The Dacians wore a tunic, a cloak called zeira, a cap called Alopekis made from the scalp of a fox with the ears visible, other Phrygian cap styles, and fawnskin boots called embades. Thracian clothing was sometimes decorated with intricate patterns. While patterned clothing was not unique to Thracians, the zeira, embades and the alopekis probably originated from them. Clothing was made from hemp, flax or wool. The Dacians and the Getae wore pantaloons called Bracae.
