Urbanization first developed in the Fertile Crescent region due to favorable conditions for agriculture and the need for defense. The earliest known urban centers were Jericho around 8000 BC and Catal Huyuk in Turkey around 6250 BC. Urbanization was delayed in China until the Shang Bronze Age potentially because the native crops and animals provided a less nutritious diet compared to the Fertile Crescent, and competition for land was initially less in China so defense was less important.

This document provides an overview of early art from the Neolithic period through early cities in Mesopotamia. It discusses the transition from hunter-gatherer societies to agricultural societies with food surpluses, and how this led to the emergence of specialized social classes, stratified societies, and early urban centers. Specific sites and artifacts mentioned include Göbekli Tepe, Jericho, Catal Höyük, the Ziggurat of Ur, the Warka Vase, statues of worshippers, and the Head of a Ruler, all dating between 6500 BCE and 2400 BCE.
03.07.conference.hornborg capital accumulation as time space appropriation
Capital accumulation relies on unequal exchange and the appropriation of other people's resources through technological infrastructure and symbolic claims. The document compares capital accumulation in 15th century Peru through agricultural terraces and ceremonial redistribution of maize beer to 18th century England through textile factories and wages. It argues these systems of unequal exchange in different cultures can be viewed as similar forms of capital accumulation through human evaluations. It also discusses how to quantify unequal exchange beyond monetary terms by considering embodied materials, energy, environmental damage, land requirements, and labor time.
Unit 1 lesson 2 river valley civs
The document discusses early river valley civilizations including the Sumerians in Mesopotamia, the ancient Egyptians along the Nile River, the Indus Valley civilization in India, and early Chinese civilization along the Yellow River. Key developments discussed include the Sumerians creating the first known writing system of cuneiform, tightly organized city-states in Mesopotamia and Egypt ruled by divine kings, and advances in agriculture, trade, architecture, mathematics and astronomy in these early civilizations. The legacies of these river valley peoples included innovations like the wheel, early systems of writing, and influences on art, architecture and divisions of time.
Urbanisation ann talbot
A recent Nature article by Meredith Reba et al. has performed a valuable service in spatialising the data provided in Tertius Chandler’s Four Thousand Years of Urban Growth, and George Modelski’s World Cities -3000 to 2000. The purpose of this essay is to explore the large scale urbanisation data for Eurasia in graphical form. Beginning with the urban revolution of the third millennium BCE the essay traces the development of large cities through to 1600 CE. The essay demonstrates that large scale urbanisation only began in northern and western Europe under the influence of the Roman Empire and was soon in retreat. Large cities did not appear in Europe again until the Is- lamic Empire extended into Spain. While large scale urbanisation continued elsewhere, urban centres in Europe were overwhelmingly small. When large scale urbanisation finally took off in Europe it was as part of a more general upsurge in urbanisation across Eurasia. Even as late as 1600 CE northern and western Europe lagged behind the eastern end of the Eurasian continent in terms of large scale urbanisation. [corrected version 2019/03/11]

Ancient civilizations in Mesopotamia and Egypt were heavily influenced by their environments. In Mesopotamia, the unpredictable Tigris and Euphrates rivers led to volatile flooding and unpredictable, angry gods. In Egypt, the stable Nile river allowed for predictable flooding and kinder, calmer gods. These environmental factors shaped religion, agriculture, technology, political structures, trade, gender roles, and cultural traditions in both civilizations.
Unit 8 early civilizations
Early civilizations first emerged along major river valleys, such as in Mesopotamia between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers, as well as in ancient Egypt and China. These civilizations were characterized by strong centralized governments, hierarchical societies organized around irrigated agriculture. Writing was developed independently in many early civilizations, often using symbols pressed into wet clay, which allowed them to more effectively organize politically and count resources. Society in early Mesopotamia featured a privileged aristocracy and priests, with underprivileged peasants and craftsmen lacking many rights, including women and slaves. Cities had surrounding walls and prominent ziggurat temples, and contributed innovations including the first written language of cuneiform, early
The Aztecs
The Aztecs lived in the Valley of Mexico, a high plateau with fertile soil from volcanoes. They were skilled engineers and architects, building cities on islands in lakes connected by causeways and aqueducts. The Aztec empire grew through warfare to control Mesoamerica by 1500. Their absolute monarchy was advised by councils but the king had ultimate power and collected tribute. The Aztecs were very religious and sacrificed people to please the gods. Society consisted of nobles and commoners who farmed or worked as artisans. The Aztecs excelled at engineering, arts, jewelry, and oratory despite having no strong written language.
Project history
This document compares and contrasts the ancient civilizations of Mesopotamia and Egypt. Both civilizations relied heavily on major rivers for survival - Mesopotamia along the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, and Egypt along the Nile river. Mesopotamia introduced many innovations like writing, the wheel, and advanced irrigation, while Egypt arose later and built upon Mesopotamian advances through a more centralized divine rule under pharaohs. The biggest difference was that Egypt was able to maintain political stability and independence for over 3,000 years, while Mesopotamia suffered frequent invasions and regime changes.

Ancient Egyptian society was based on agriculture along the Nile River. Life revolved around the annual flooding of the Nile, which provided rich soil for farming after the waters receded. Egyptian culture treated men and women equally and featured important goddesses in their mythology. Hieroglyphs were a pictographic written language used in Egypt for over 3,500 years. Pharaohs served as high priests, heads of state, and were viewed as semi-divine beings. Pyramids were built as tombs for pharaohs and queens, with some pyramid builders being permanent employees rather than slaves. Egyptians practiced mummification to ensure safe passage to the afterlife.
Ancient greeks greek society and economy
Athenian women had very limited freedoms and were expected to remain in the home, while Spartan women had greater freedoms like owning property and receiving an education. Greek society was dominated by aristocratic landowners who had slaves work their lands. Only adult male landowners were considered citizens with rights; women, slaves, foreigners had few to no rights. Slavery was widespread in Greece, with slaves making up over a third of the population and working in households, farms, ships and mines. As Greece lacked good farmland, city-states resorted to conquest and colonization of lands with ports and resources, allowing trade-based economies to flourish.
North american cultures
The document summarizes the cultures of various Native American groups in North America, including the Pueblo people, Mississippians, Eastern Woodlands tribes, Great Plains tribes, Arctic tribes, Subarctic tribes, Northwestern tribes, and tribes of the West and Southwest. Key aspects discussed include methods of farming, housing, reliance on bison and seasonal food sources, and effects of horses and European contact.
Urban civilisations (Ancient History)
Urban civilizations first developed around the 4th millennium BC in the river valleys and plains of Egypt and Mesopotamia along the Nile, Tigris, and Euphrates Rivers, which had fertile soils. This transition from villages to cities, known as the urban revolution, was characterized by abundant crop surpluses that fed urban populations and were traded, a hierarchical society divided into rulers, soldiers, priests, farmers, and artisans, and an advanced culture facilitated by the invention of writing. Power was centered around kings and pharaohs who possessed absolute authority over the political and administrative organizations.
Origen & Modern Technologies Of Agriculture.
This document provides an overview of the origin and history of agriculture from early humans through modern times. It discusses how early humans in Africa began hunting large animals around 150,000-200,000 years ago. By 7,000 BC, farming had reached Mesopotamia and Egypt around 8,000 BC. Important crops were domesticated throughout the world, and the development of irrigation in Mesopotamia and Egypt allowed for large-scale agriculture. Agricultural tools and practices advanced significantly between the 16th century and 19th century in Britain, fueling population growth and the Industrial Revolution. The document concludes with descriptions of modern agricultural technologies and practices such as seed drills, tractors, and broadcast seeding.
6b Vega Mario Ancient Egypt
The Nile River is the second longest river in the world. It flooded annually in the summer, leaving very fertile soil for farming. The ancient Egyptians relied heavily on the predictable flooding of the Nile for agriculture and survival. The river flows from the Ethiopian highlands through Egypt to the Mediterranean Sea. Farmers in Egypt still use the fertile lands along the Nile River to grow crops.
Foundations 8000-600
1. The document outlines several major themes in world history from the Neolithic Revolution to around 600 CE, including the development of agriculture, trade networks, technologies, demographics, social and gender structures, and states and empires.
2. Key developments include the rise of sedentary civilizations along major river valleys beginning around 8000 BCE, and the fall of major empires by 600 CE. Agriculture, trade, and new technologies led to more complex societies.
3. Social hierarchies emerged with elites controlling surpluses, and gender roles became more divided as agriculture and states expanded. Major religions also spread during this period.
Historypp
History can be interpreted in different ways based on facts from primary and secondary sources. While based on facts, people interpret history differently, influencing how it is defined and written. Symbolism has been important to human development and culture, and gives insight into human behavior through artifacts. A catastrophic event changed the world's climate thousands of years ago, possibly due to volcanic eruptions, which caused global drought, famine, and death and contributed to the fall of civilizations like the Roman Empire.
Ap world history – strayer unit 1 overview
This document provides an overview of early world history from the emergence of humankind to the development of civilizations. It discusses how hominids evolved in Africa around 5-6 million years ago and began migrating from Africa around 2 million years ago. Around 11,000 years ago, the agricultural revolution began as some hominid groups started domesticating plants and animals, allowing for population growth and division of labor. Some of the first complex civilizations emerged around 3500 BCE in river valleys and dominated the globe until the post-1000 CE era. Civilizations laid the foundations for modern empires, religions, technologies, and social inequalities.

Egipet
Egypt has a long history, beginning as separate city-states along the Nile that eventually united under a single ruler in Upper Egypt. The pyramids built by ancient Egyptians are one of the seven wonders of the world. Egypt spans both North Africa and the Sinai Peninsula in Asia. Cairo is a center for Arabic movies and music, while the majority of Egyptians speak Arabic and follow Islam, with a minority of Copts who are Christian descendants of Egypt's earliest Christians. The fauna of Egypt includes gazelles, foxes, jerboas, hyenas, jackals, hippos, and crocodiles.

Humanity Of Christ 2
This document discusses the humanity and divinity of Jesus Christ based on a sermon about the Person and Work of Christ. It makes three key points:
1) Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man, with both a true human body and soul, yet is only one person, not two. He experienced human pleasure, pain, sorrow and delight.
2) It was necessary for Jesus to be born of a virgin and take on human flesh in order to redeem sinful humanity and fulfill prophecies. As both God and man, he could act as the mediator between God and mankind.
3) Unlike fallen humans who are unable to not sin, Jesus was able to live a sinless life because of
Islam
This document provides an overview of the key beliefs and practices of Islam. It discusses that Islam is a monotheistic religion founded on revelations received by the prophet Muhammad. The five pillars of Islam are the core duties required of Muslims: the shahadah (declaration of faith), salat (prayer), zakat (almsgiving), sawm (fasting during Ramadan), and hajj (pilgrimage to Mecca). The document also outlines Islamic rules for worship, society, and the roles and contributions of historic Islamic empires and leaders.

God prepares the coming of jesus lesson # 6
God had been preparing the world for the coming of Jesus over many centuries through covenants and prophets in the Old Testament. Jesus fulfilled these prophecies by being the promised Messiah who established a New Covenant through his body and blood, providing salvation for all people. This New Covenant, foretold by prophets like Isaiah, would be eternal and enable God's people to truly keep his commandments through the grace Jesus offers.
Hebrews 9 Based on the teachings of Fr. Al Lauer of Presentation Ministires.
1) The passage discusses the priesthood of Jesus and how it is different and greater than the priesthood under the old covenant.
2) Jesus' sacrifice was once for all time, unlike the old covenant where priests had to sacrifice annually for sins.
3) Believers now have confidence to enter God's presence through Jesus' sacrifice and can approach God with sincere hearts, in contrast to the fear people had under the old covenant.

Christian home covenant 2 of 4
The document discusses the biblical meaning and purpose of marriage. It argues that marriage is a covenant between a husband and wife, not just a partnership agreement. The marriage ceremony involves rituals that symbolize the covenant, including an exchange of names, robes, and oaths to reflect the total commitment and unity of the couple. By entering this covenant, a couple participates in God's mission and their marriage is meant to build the kingdom of God.
Hebrews chapter 9
The document discusses the symbolism and meaning behind various aspects of the Old Testament tabernacle and temple. It notes that the veil of the tabernacle represented the mysteries of the Old Testament and Christ's triumph over death. It also symbolized the separation between God and man. The tabernacle and subsequent temples built by Solomon, Zerubabel, and Herod are described. The document discusses how Christ serves as our high priest and the reality to which the tabernacle symbols and sacrifices pointed. It explores the symbolism of the mercy seat and how Christ fulfills this as our propitiation.
Hebrew scripture nuggets hebraic heritage that the church lost- part 2
Hebraic heritage is rich in revealing spiritual treasures to lovers of the Word of God. Only a Jew would understand the idioms, phrases and figures of speech in the original script. While being translated these either lose meaning or even lead us to erroneous interpretations. This power-point with quite a few samples of such treasures lost by the Church, seeks to create an interest in the viewer to learn the Bible from Jewish Perspective. Praise be to the Lord Yeshua Hamaschiach (Jesus Christ) for His servants among Messianic Jews and gentile Christians who strive to bring this heritage back to the family of God.
Shalom!
Hebrew Scripture Nuggets- Hebraic Heritage that the Church Lost -Part 1
Jesus Christ is a Jew. The authors of all the books in the Bible , except Dr Luke are all Jews. They wrote to their Jewish audience with a Jewish mindset using Jewish cultural idioms, phrases and proverbs. The audience were initially all Jewish and later mixed with gentile disciples who understood these. Somewhere the Church severed its links with the Jewish people and Hebrew language, thereby losing a vast and rich heritage in scriptures. Misinterpretations and doctrinal differences began to dissect and divide the church into splinter groups. In these End Times, the Lord in His grace, is restoring the Hebraic Heritage to the Church, which truly seeks to know Him and worship Him in spirit and in truth and move ahead in its mission. These series of power-points contain the rich learnings from the superb Timothy Programme International authored by Dr. Karl D Coke, who learnt under Messianic Jewish and gentile Bible scholars. Read through and be blessed.
Sabbath school lesson 11, 4th quarter of 2015
God made several covenants throughout the Bible, including the covenant with Noah after the flood to never destroy the earth with water again. This was a unilateral covenant where God promised something without requiring anything in return from humanity. God also made covenants with Abraham and at Mount Sinai with the Israelites. However, these covenants were imperfect and temporary. The new covenant established by Jesus's death through his blood is the eternal covenant that fulfills all previous covenants by providing forgiveness of sins for those who accept it by faith.

Dbq Ancient Egypt
The ancient Egyptian site of Tanis has long been debated as to its true identity. It was proposed to be the locations of either Avaris or Pi-Ramesses, both important cities. However, Tanis contained much recycled material from other sites, leading historians and archaeologists to dismiss it as the legitimate Tanis, which was capital of the 21st dynasty. Further evidence and excavation is needed to definitively identify Tanis and resolve uncertainties around its history and significance.

Here is a potential essay analyzing how the red convertible represents brotherhood in the short story "The Red Convertible":
The red convertible in Louise Erdrich's short story "The Red Convertible" serves as a symbol of the brotherhood between Henry and Lyman. At the beginning of the story, the convertible represents the joy, freedom, and optimism the brothers share. However, as the story progresses and the brothers experience the horrors of the Vietnam War, the convertible comes to take on new symbolic meanings related to their deteriorating relationship.
In the early scenes when the brothers are driving around in the convertible back home in the States, the red car symbolizes their youth, adventure, and unbreakable
540-9 The History of Cities
This document discusses the history and development of cities from early villages to modern urban centers. It notes that while cities have existed for over 5,000 years, widespread urbanization is a more recent phenomenon occurring mostly in the last 150 years. Key events and factors in the growth of cities include the development of agriculture allowing for permanent settlements, the rise of centralized authority under kings which led to the emergence of the first citadels and walled cities, and the industrial revolution which vastly accelerated the urbanization process and changed the role of cities globally. The document references several scholars and their works analyzing urbanization trends and the strategic importance of cities throughout history.
2) As mentioned in the text book Bentley and Ziegler 108; The Pa.docx
2) As mentioned in the text book "Bentley and Ziegler 108"; The Paleolithic period by far the longest portion of the human experience on earth as is the period historians and archaeologists call the Paleolithic era, which means the “Old Stone Age”. The Paleolithic period extended from the first tool-using hominids until about twelve thousand years ago. By reading the text book "Bentley and Ziegler 108"; I came to understanding their economic and their social lifestyle. There are not prove of written records of their lifestyle; but they survive by hunting and gathering items, according to the evidence that Archaeologists have excavated. Theses individual did not own private property. Men moved place to place during hunting season for search of prey that provides a substantial amount of meat so they could feed their family, friends, and others whom they cared about. In the Paleolithic lifestyle, plant foods were essential to survive, but meat was highly item in their diet. Paleolithic hunting was a complicated venture, but they clearly demonstrated the capacity of human intelligence, they showed the ability to make complicated plans and sophisticated language/communications skills- so they can exploit the environment. The Paleolithic period ended when some of the more powerful hunters founded settlements in rich areas, and abandoned the nomadic lifestyle, they established permanent settlements. To my understanding the Paleolithic period stated to Africa in general, the one who moved to rich areas and refused to go back are the ones that created the culture of Neandertal people in Middle Eastern, Europe, and South West Asia as the intelligent progress (technology) of the Neolithic era advanced. To compare the Paleolithic era and Neolithic era, both eras are similar to me economically; they survived by hunting and gathering. As pointed in book of "B and Z 108"; Neolithic eras mean a new stone age as opposed to the old stone age of Paleolithic times. Neolithic era can be defined as the time of arising agriculture; agriculture became the way of life, people stopped nomad hunting and gardening. I can point the significant steps humans made but to stay on the main topic; the development of tools and new technology are extensive. The historians estimated that before agriculture, about 10,000 B.C.E, the earth’s human population was roughly four million. By 5000 B.C.E, agriculture appeared in a few of the world’s regions "B and Z 108" source from page 10 to 17. In 2012, the population was estimated to be around seven billion.
EXSAMPLEWhen you state that the two eras are similiar economically is it just base on hunting and gathering? My interpretation from the reading is that the Neothithic actually settled down and built more of an agriculture society where gathering was lessen because they started to grow their own crops. Based on the region and resource that was settled, the limitation of what can be grown built up to the trade developement to acqu.
Neolithic revolution
The Neolithic Revolution refers to the transition of human societies from hunting and gathering to agriculture and settlement between 8000-3500 BCE. The development of agriculture began in Southwest Asia and allowed populations to grow as food supplies became more reliable and abundant. Sedentary agricultural communities developed social stratification and specialization of labor. Some of the earliest large, permanent settlements like Catalhoyuk and Jericho exhibited religious and political structures.

Sedentary living led to the establishment of permanent villages and towns, which saw further technological advances in tools, pottery, weaving and metallurgy. The first large settlements, such as Catalhoyuk and Jericho, displayed evidence of social stratification and specialized labor. By 3500 BCE, advanced river valley civilizations had formed along major river systems.
Why Did The Indus Valley Have An Advanced Civilization
The Indus Valley Civilization had a significant influence on the development of social and political ideas in India. Hinduism originated in the Indus Valley culture, and was a dominant religion and political entity until the Mauryan Empire. Emperor Ashoka established Buddhism which spread across Asia. The Mughal Empire later unified India despite its religious and cultural diversity. European colonization disrupted India's political systems and autonomy. Gandhi led the independence movement that eventually drove the British out of India in the early 20th century. The caste system has also been a longstanding part of Indian culture and society.

Chapter 6 Powerpoint notes for Strayer Chapter 6 - Commonalities & Variations...
The Mayan Temple of the Great Jaguar in Tikal, Guatemala was built in the 8th century AD to serve as the tomb for ruler Chan K'awill. The 144 foot tall temple has a steep pyramid shape with nine large steps and hundreds of small steps, topped by a temple with a roof featuring carvings. While its explicit purpose was as a tomb, it also served to accentuate the ruler's power and status by widening the physical distance between those at the top and bottom of the structure.
Emergence of Urban Community and the Rise of the Metropolis
The document discusses the emergence and development of urban communities and rise of metropolises. It defines key terms like urban area and urbanization, and describes the factors that led to the formation of early cities like the development of agriculture and food surpluses. The document also examines urban structure models like the grid and concentric ring models, and discusses the development of cities and metropolises in the Philippines.
Strayer textbook unit2_intro
This document provides an overview of world history from 500 BCE to 500 CE, referred to as the period of second-wave civilizations. It discusses how after the collapse of early civilizations, new urban societies emerged across Afro-Eurasia, continuing the global spread of civilization. While states and empires rose and fell regularly, the basic social hierarchies and lack of economic transformation meant fundamental human organizations did not change substantially during this era. The document examines both continuities like monarchical rule and growing populations, as well as some significant developments such as larger empires and new major cultural traditions.
Indus Valley Civilization And Early Trade
The document provides information about the Indus Valley Civilization and early trade. It discusses the location of the earliest Indian civilization between the Indus and Saraswati Rivers. It notes that farming on flood plains started around 6000 BCE and cities/villages like Mohenjo-Daro and Harappa were built. The cities had roads just wide enough for carts and some pedestrians. Priests served as representatives for the gods and cities depended on irrigated farms for food. The decline of the Indus Valley accelerated when nomads started moving in.
Ancient greek
Ancient Greek human settlements began as small villages along the coasts and islands of the Mediterranean and Black Seas. Notable early civilizations included the Minoans of Crete, known for their palace at Knossos. Greeks later established city-states like Athens and Sparta between 800-600 BC, centered around fortified hilltop acropolises. The Classical Period from the 5th to 4th centuries BC marked Greece's cultural and artistic peak, exemplified by structures on the Athenian Acropolis such as the Parthenon. However, Greek city-states eventually fell under Roman rule after wars in the 2nd century BC.
Mayans Death
The Mayan civilization was an advanced society that peaked at around 12 million people. They had a sophisticated understanding of astronomy, mathematics, and calendrical systems. Around 900 AD, nearly 90% of the Mayan population mysteriously died off from an unknown cause, despite their advanced achievements. The most supported theory for their collapse is drought, as the Mayan society was highly dependent on stable water sources for agriculture and lacked adaptations to prolonged drought conditions. However, the exact reasons for the Mayans' abrupt decline remain unclear and continue to puzzle scholars.
Health And The Environment ( Marine Life ) Essay
1) The document discusses an oil spill that occurred off the coast of New Zealand in 2011 when a cargo ship, the MV Rena, ran aground and spilled oil and debris.
2) There were major environmental, economic, and social impacts from the spill. Efforts have been made to restore the affected marine environment.
3) A key issue is whether to leave the remaining wreck and debris or remove it. Leaving it could allow faster access but also pose risks, while removal could further damage the recovering area. The benefits and risks of each option are debated.
Prehistory and the Earliest Civilizations
During prehistory, humans lived as nomadic hunter-gatherers with basic tools and language. The Agricultural Revolution between 10,000-7,000 BC led people to farm and domesticate animals, allowing permanent settlements to form. These early farming villages grew into cities and eventually empires as populations increased and cities conquered each other. Two early civilizations were Sumer and Egypt, which both developed near rivers for irrigation around 3,200 BC. They established some of the first systems of writing, wheeled vehicles, law, architecture, calendars, and trade networks.
Unit 1
This document discusses early human history from 5.6 million years ago to present day hunter-gatherer societies. It describes how fossils, stone tools, and cave paintings have helped archaeologists learn about early humans and reconstruct their lives. Present-day hunter-gatherer societies may provide insights into the past lives and behaviors of early humans before the development of agriculture and permanent settlements.
Population trade
The document summarizes key developments between 1200 BCE and 500 CE. Population in Afroeurasia rose significantly due to improved farming techniques, the domestication of work animals, and denser living conditions. This population growth led to more complex societies, increased collective learning, and more people living in large cities. Expanding networks of exchange also developed as trade routes increased interaction and spread of ideas, goods, and diseases across wide areas of Afroeurasia and the Americas.
How Has The Nile River And How It Shaped Ancient Egypt
The Nile River was essential to the development of ancient Egyptian civilization. It provided water for irrigation to grow crops, deposited fertile silt annually when it flooded, and served as a transportation route. The predictable flooding allowed Egyptians to develop a calendar and agricultural system centered around the flood cycle. Without the Nile's reliable flooding and resources, ancient Egypt would not have been able to emerge as a major power in the ancient world.

What is GPS
GPS uses a network of satellites and receivers to calculate the precise location of a person or object anywhere on Earth. It works by measuring the time it takes signals from at least 3 satellites to reach a GPS receiver, allowing the receiver to triangulate its position using geometry. While satellites carry atomic clocks for precision, most receivers use less accurate clocks, which can impact location calculation accuracy. Obstructions and signal interference may also introduce errors.
