Civilization first emerged in several ancient river valleys, including those of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers in Mesopotamia around 3500 BCE. Early Mesopotamian societies developed new technologies and social structures like irrigation, the wheel, writing, and the first cities including Uruk and Ur. This period in the ancient Near East saw many advances that helped establish the foundations of early human civilization.
The document provides information about reviewing for a final exam. It recommends making flashcards of key terms and concepts, practicing old exams if examples are available, and focusing your study time on topics you struggled with the most during the semester.
The document discusses the results of a study on the impact of COVID-19 lockdowns on air pollution. Researchers found that lockdowns led to significant short-term reductions in nitrogen dioxide and fine particulate matter pollution globally as transportation and industrial activities declined substantially. However, the document notes that the improvements in air quality were temporary and pollution levels rose back to pre-pandemic levels as restrictions eased and activity increased again.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.

Mannerism and early and high northern renjennygheith
Mannerism was an artistic style in Europe in the late 15th and 16th centuries that was a reaction against the formal balance and harmony of the Renaissance. It was known for elongated figures, complex compositions, and dramatic use of color and lighting. The Northern Renaissance style developed in northern Europe from the 14th to the 17th centuries and was characterized by more realistic and detailed representations of objects and people compared to the idealized styles in Italy.

The early Renaissance in Italy saw major developments in art and architecture. Artists rediscovered techniques of linear perspective and realism in depicting the human form which had been lost in the Middle Ages. Painters like Giotto, Donatello and Brunelleschi made major advances that influenced later Renaissance artists and helped usher in new styles that emphasized realism and a revival of classical forms from ancient Greece and Rome.
Gothic art developed in Europe during the High and Late Middle Ages. It was a style of medieval art that developed out of Romanesque art in northern Europe. Gothic art was known for elaborate stained glass windows, flying buttresses, pointed arches, and detailed sculptures and tracery on cathedrals and churches.
The document provides information on several art objects from different museums:
- A painted limestone relief from ancient Egypt depicting King's son Wepemnofret that demonstrates his elite status through his clothing, accessories, and the offerings listed on the stela.
- A marble head fragment from ancient Rome showing a man with his right eye closed that was crafted in an "impressionist" style popular in its time period.
- A glazed ceramic figurine from China of a drummer on horseback that reflects cultural influences from Central Asia following the Han dynasty's fall.
Early medieval art developed after the fall of the Western Roman Empire and the beginning of the Middle Ages in Europe. This period saw the emergence of new styles of art that incorporated Christian themes with traditional decorative motifs. Art during this time was primarily created for churches and illuminated manuscripts rather than as standalone works.
African art encompasses a diverse range of cultural artifacts and styles from across the continent. Sculptures, masks, textiles, and other works provide insight into the rich traditions and beliefs of many African societies. These artistic traditions continue to evolve while also preserving important cultural heritage.
Japan has a long and rich artistic tradition spanning thousands of years. Japanese art incorporates influences from China and other parts of Asia as well as indigenous styles. The main artistic genres that developed in Japan include paintings, calligraphy, poetry, gardening, architecture, pottery and ceramics, sculpture, textiles, lacquerware, and woodblock printing.
Medieval art from India, Cambodia, and China is explored. Indian art from this period showed Hindu religious themes through temple architecture and sculpture. Cambodian art flourished under the Khmer Empire and produced grand temples such as Angkor Wat. Chinese art during medieval times saw the rise of landscape painting, with artists capturing mountains and rivers through ink and brushstrokes on silk or paper.
Islamic art encompasses the visual arts produced from the 7th century onwards by people who lived within the territory that was inhabited by Muslim populations. The artistic elements involved include both figurative and non-figurative, geometric and floral designs. Calligraphy, or Arabic script, also became a major influential element in Islamic artistic expression.
This document discusses various types of images and their relationship to nature, people, places of worship, leaders, spirituality, religion, and architecture. It seems to categorize different subject matters that images commonly depict such as men, women, places of worship, leaders and historical events, spirituality and religion, death, and architectural advancement.
Early Jewish, Christian, and Byzantine art developed between the 1st century BCE and the 6th century CE. These artistic traditions were heavily influenced by Greco-Roman styles but also incorporated local traditions and beliefs. Religious texts and narratives from the Bible often provided inspiration for artistic works during this period.
The Roman Empire had a profound impact on art and architecture. Romans adopted Greek styles and increasingly Hellenized their art, combining stately grandeur with technical precision. They made major contributions in sculpture, architecture, painting and decorative arts which emphasized order, symmetry, and mathematical proportions.
The Etruscans were an ancient civilization located in what is now central Italy who flourished between the 8th and 3rd centuries BC. Their art and culture heavily influenced early Roman art and culture. Etruscan art is characterized by ornate metalwork, terracotta sculptures, and wall paintings found in elaborate tombs depicting both mythological scenes and aspects of daily life.
Greek art from the 5th to 1st centuries BC is divided into the Classical and Hellenistic periods. During the Classical period, artists focused on realistic and idealized human forms to represent gods and heroes from mythology. The Hellenistic period saw Greek rule expand greatly and art shifted to a more naturalistic and emotional style as individualism grew.
Greek art developed from the Aegean Bronze Age through the Geometric and Archaic periods. Early Greek art focused on pottery and sculptures depicting humans and gods. Styles evolved from simple geometric patterns to more naturalistic representations over time.
Early Asian art developed independently in many regions across the vast continent. In India, Buddhist art flourished between the 1st century BC and 5th century AD, producing iconic sculptures and architecture. China saw the emergence of distinct artistic traditions during its Shang and Zhou dynasties, when ritual bronzes and jade carvings conveyed cultural and political meanings.
Ancient Egypt was a civilization located along the lower reaches of the Nile River in northeastern Africa. The civilization coalesced around 3100 BC and lasted until 332 BC when it was conquered by Alexander the Great. For most of its history, Ancient Egyptian kings maintained control over territories in surrounding areas, including Nubia and parts of the Near East.

Creator: Africa, Nigeria, Nok culture\r\nCulture: African; West African; Nigerian; Nok\r\nTitle: Head\r\nWork Type: Sculpture\r\nDate: c. 600 BC-250\r\nMaterial: terracotta\r\nMeasurements: Overall: 38.2cm x 20cm\r\nStyle Period: Nok Culture\r\nDescription: The Nok culture of central Nigeria initiated sub-Saharan Africa's earliest known sculptural tradition by around 600 BC. Artists modeled coarse-grained clay by hand to produce human and animal effigies of unknown function. This exceptionally well-preserved head probably belonged to a life-size seated figure, posed with knees drawn up and chin resting on a forearm. The artist combined boldly exaggerated proportions with carefully rendered details. These include indentations on the eyelids and brows, scarification on the cheeks, and teeth inside the parted lips.\r\nDescription: Detail\r\nRepository: The Cleveland Museum of Art\r\nRepository: Cleveland, Ohio, USA\r\nRepository: Andrew R. and Martha Holden Jennings Fund\r\nRepository: 1995.21\r\nRepository: http://www.clemusart.com/\r\nCollection: The Cleveland Museum of Art Collection\r\nCollection: Formerly in The AMICO Library\r\nID Number: CMA_.1995.21\r\nSource: Data from: The Cleveland Museum of Art\r\nRights: This image was provided by The Cleveland Museum of Art.

Creator: Zaire, Chiloango River Valley, Yombe people\r\nCreator: African; Central African; Congolese; Yombe\r\nCreator: African; Central African; Congolese\r\nTitle: Standing male figure with nails (Nkisi Nkonde)\r\nWork Type: Sculpture\r\nDate: 19th Century\r\nMaterial: Wood, iron, raffia, pigment, kaolin, red camwood (tukula)\r\nMeasurements: 44 x 15 5/8 x 1 3/8 in. (111.8 x 39.7 x 3.5 cm.)\r\nDescription: <p>This large, very rare, and monumental Kongo figure is from a Yombe group residing in the Chiloango River valley. It is a generic type called <i>nkisi,</i> containers for medicines prepared and inserted by a ritual specialist, a <i>nganga.</i> A <i>nkisi</i> is a cloth bundle or carved figure, or even the consecrated body of a chief. This figure wears a chief's hat and anklets, and a type of raffia skirt worn by mediators.</p><p>Medicines of graveyard earth and animal and vegetal matter help the ritual specialist activate the figure with spirit force that protects, heals, or destroys. Specifically, this figure is a <i>nkisi nkondi,</i> which is embedded with nails that represent sealed oaths taken in a law court, or <i>mambu,</i> historically linked to chieftancies. It is a type of <i>nkisi nkondi</i> with specific attributes: a large cowrie shell fixed at the center of a rounded resin pack on the abdomen; a resin pack around the chin; the <i>pakalala</i> stance (hands on hips, arms akimbo); head thrust forward; mouth open; and inlaid porcelain eyes. On the head is a chief's hat of authority incised with specific geometric motifs, and the face is painted with white kaolin and red camwood pigment in specific patterns. This style of <i>nkisi nkondi,</i> represented by an important corpus of eight known works, is considered the product of one artist or workshop and one ritual specialist.</p><p><i>Dallas Museum of Art: A Guide to the Collection,</i> page 154</p>\r\nDescription: Full View\r\nRepository: Dallas Museum of Art\r\nRepository: Dallas, Texas, USA\r\nRepository: Dallas Museum of Art, Foundation for the Arts Collection, gift of the McDermott Foundation\r\nRepository: 1996.184.FA\r\nRepository: http://www.dallasmuseumofart.org/\r\nCollection: Dallas Museum of Art Collection\r\nCollection: Formerly in The AMICO Library\r\nID Number: DMA_.1996.184.FA\r\nSource: Data From: Dallas Museum of Art\r\nRights: This image was provided by Dallas Museum of Art.
