This document discusses the transition from gathering to growing food, including the beginnings of farming and herding. It notes that wheat, barley and rice grew naturally in parts of the subcontinent and people began collecting these grains as food. Over time, people started thinking about growing these plants themselves and protecting animal herds, leading to the beginnings of farming and herding. The document then discusses the process of domestication around 12,000 years ago and how this resulted in most modern food plants and animals. It describes how growing plants meant people had to stay in one place and find ways to store grain. Archaeologists have found evidence of early farming settlements across the subcontinent by studying remains of plants, animal bones, and housing structures.

Hindu,Muslim and British In AD 1817,a scottish economist and political philosopher called James mill divided india’s past into three periods–Hindu,muslim and british. mill’s preiodisation was widely accepted at the time. But today,many historians do not agree with his division of the past into hindu or muslim periods on the basis of the religion of rulers. They point out the number of problems with such a classification. firstly,not all ancient a rulers were hindu and not all medival indian rulers were muslim.Many rulers in ancient india belonged to other faiths , such as Buddhism Jainism, etc
Nowdays, many historians classify India past into the ancient, the medival and the modern period.The ancient period said to have ended in the 7th century AD with the death of harshavardhana. The medival period is said to extend from AD 700 to AD 1750.This was the period of regional rulers such as the cholas ,rajputs, the palas, etc. the modern is period is to have begun in the 18th centuary AD.The British also exploited the country resources for their own gain-they collected revenue from the land owners. There polices
Gradually turned india from an exporter of finished goods to an exporter of raw material of british goods. This led to a huge drain of wealth and resources of india . Such subjucation of one country by another that brings about political social ecnomic and cultural changes is called colonisation. Therefore, this period which saw the colonisation of india is also called the colonial periods in indian history.
New political formations After Aurangzeb’s death in AD 1707, mughal power declined and many regional and political forces began to assert their authority over the subcontinent.

Early farmers also developed improved varieties of plants. For example, around 6000 B.C.E., a new variety of wheat
arose in South Asia and Egypt. It was stronger than previous cereal grains, its hulls were easier to remove, and it
could be made into bread.
As the Romans expanded their empire using warfare and coercion, they wrote manuals about the farming techniques
they observed in Africa and Asia, and adapted them to land in Europe.
In China, farmers also adapted tools and methods from nearby empires. Economy of Bangladesh A variety of rice from Vietnam ripened
quickly and allowed farmers to harvest several crops during a single growing season. This rice quickly became
popular throughout China.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

1. Name: Janette Camen Roger Magwaza
Reg #: 11816142
Topic: From gathering to growing food
Class: Six (6th) Social Science
Chapter 3
2. THE BEGINNING OF FARMING AND HERDING
• Wheat, barley and rice grew naturally in different part of the subcontinent, men women
and children probably collected these grains as food, and learnt where they grew and when
they ripened.
• This may lead them to think about growing plants on their own. In such way, people
became farmers.
• People could also attract then and then tame animals by leaving food for them near their
shelters.
• Animals such as: sheep, goat, cattle and also pig lived in herds, and most of them ate grass.
People often protected these animals from attack by other wild animals and this is how
they became herders.
3. DOMESTICATION
Domestication is the name given to the process in which people
grow plants and look after animals. Very often, plants and animals
that are tended b people become different from wild plants and
animals. This process is because is because people select plants
and animals for domestication.
It began about 12,000 years ago. Virtually all the plants and
animals produce that we used as food today is a result of
domestication.
4. A NEW WAY OF GROWING FOOD
When people began growing plants, it means that they had to stay in the
same place for a long time looking after the plants, watering, weeding, driving
away animals and birds till the grain ripened. And then, the grain had to be
used carefully.
As grain had to be stored for both food and seed, people had to ways of
storing it.
In many areas, they began making large clays pots, or wove baskets or dugs
pits into the ground.
5. Quick quiz
1. Domestication began about:
A. 1 million years ago
B. 12,000 years ago
C. 17,000 years ago
2. When people start growing plants, it means they had to stay in the same place.
A. True
B. False
3. ________ is the name given to the process in which people grow plants and look
after animals
A. Calibrate
B. Domestication
C. Farming
6. STORING ANIMALS
•The storing of animals makes animal multiply naturally.
•If they are being take care of properly and well looked
at, they provide milk which is an important source of
food and meat whenever required.
•Animals that are reared can be used as a “store” of food
7. FINDING OUT ABOUT THE FIRST FARMERS AND
HERDERS
Archaeologists have found evidence of early farmers and herders. These
are found all over the subcontinent.
Burzhom (Kashmir), Daojali Hading (Dima Hasao District of Assam) Chirand
(Saran Bihar) both Koldihwa and Mahagara (near Belan River Devghat
Village – UP) Hallur (Haveri – Karnataka) Paiyampalli (Vellore District in
Tamil Nadu).
To find out whether these sites were settlements of farmers and herders,
scientists study evidence of plants and animals bones.
One of the most exciting finds includes remains of burnt grains. (These
may have been burnt accidentally or on purpose). Scientists can identify
these grains and so we know that a numbers of crops were grown.
They can also identify the bones of different animals.
8. TOWARDS A SETTLED LIFE
Archaeologists have found traces of huts or houses of some sites. For
instance, in Burzahom (in present day Kashmir) people built pit houses,
which were dug into the ground, with steps leading into them.
These may have provided shelters in cold weather. Archaeologists have
also found cooking hearths both inside and outside the huts, which
suggests that, depending on the weather, people could cook food either
indoors or outdoors.
Stones have been found from many sites as well.
These are different from the earlier Palaeolithic tools and that is why
they are called Neolithic.
9. These include tools that were polished to give a fine cutting edge, and mortars and pestles used for
grinding grain and other plant produce.
Mortars and pestle are used for grinding grains even today, several thousand years later.
At the same time, tools of the Palaeolithic types continued to be made, and used, and remember, some
tools were also made of bones.
Many kinds of earthen pots have also been found.
These were sometimes decorated and then used for storing things.
People also began using pots for cooking food, especially grains like rice, wheat and lentils that now became
important part of diet.
They began weaving cloth, using different kinds of materials, cotton that could now be grown.
In many areas, men and women still continued to hunt and gather food, and elsewhere people adopted
farming and herding lowly, over several thousand years.

11. LIVING AND DYING IN MEHRGARH
• Mehrgarh is a site located in a fertile plain, near the bolan pass
balochistan, Pakistan, which is one f the most important route to
Iran.
• Mehrgarh where people learnt to grow barley and wheat and also
rear sheep and goats for the first time in this area.
• It is one of the earliest village that we know about. Bones of wild
animals such as the deer and pig and also bones of sheep and goat
were found.
• Mehrgarh includes remains of square or rectangular houses. Each
house had four or more compartments and some of which may
have been used for storage.
12. • When people die, their relatives and friends generally pay
respect to them.
• Burial is one such arrangement. Several burial sites have been
found at mehrgarh the dead person was buried with goats,
which means to serve a food in the next world.
