The document discusses the debate around where the famous Rosetta Stone should be housed, as it is currently located in the British Museum but Egypt wants it returned. The stone is significant because it helped decode hieroglyphics by having the same text inscribed in three scripts: hieroglyphic, demotic, and Greek. While Egypt wants it housed in a new museum near the pyramids, the UK argues it should remain in the British Museum where it has been on display for over 200 years.

Research Topic Proposal
I would like to do research paper on the Greeks.
I want to do my research paper on the Greeks because I find it interesting on how they were a resource
poor country. They were dependent on the access to the foreign markets, and raw materials. It was
because of certain situations that the greeks were forced to venture out.
I also find it interesting that it was composed of over 1400 islands that made up Greece. Due to
having 1400 islands in the Mediterranean Sea, the greeks were able to trade and bing new ideas to their
culture. Sailors and mercenaries would trade for goods and ideas being on the Mediterranean Sea.
Greece was also one of the most advanced civilizations of their time. The greeks achieved an
unparalleled achievements than western civilization.
And how the islands helped develop the country.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Â
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.
âĸ 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.
âĸ 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 âany matterâ at âany timeâ under House Rule X.
âĸ 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

Heinrich Schliemann and Troy
This activity is to be done in pairs.
The year is 1873 and the world has just heard that the famous
archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann has discovered the city of Troy
mentioned by Homer in his work, The Iliad. Many people are saying that
his claims are false. One of you is an investigative reporter and your boss
has asked you to investigate the claims made by Schliemann in
preparation for an interview with the man himself. One of you is
Heinrich Schliemann himself and you are prepared to do the radio
interview to prove your critics wrong.
Your task in this activity is to each prepare for the interview to be
presented in front of the class.
The reporter must prepare a list of questions about
īˇ Schliemannâs life
īˇ His work prior to his discovery of Troy
īˇ What he found at Troy
īˇ The theories that exist about Schliemannâs work other than what he claims
īˇ What he says about the evidence to support these other theories
Heinrich Schliemann must prepare to his answers to these questions.
To begin this assignment
īˇ Gather your sources. Visit
www.historyforkids.org/learn/greeks/literature/iliad.htm to find out the story of
the Iliad.
īˇ Visit www.archaeologyexpert.co.uk/HeinrichSchliemann.html. From this site, you
will find information about Schliemannâs life, where he was born, his family, his
early work and how he died.
īˇ These two sites should get you started and it will be your own research from
there. Remember when using the internet to gather sources you must consider
the reliability of the source, it may not necessarily be correct. HINT â if you find
some information on one site, see if you can find it on another site to verify it.
īˇ Once you have gathered the information you need to come up with a list of
questions that will be asked during the interview and a list of answers to the
questions
īˇ Once you have your list of questions you need to write a script for the interview.
You donât need to memorise the script, you can use palm cards during the
interview
īˇ It is advisable to practice your interview before it is time to do it in front of the class.

DEBATE

The Rosetta Stone: where does it belong?
This famous 2,200-year-old stone has been in the British Museum since 1802, where it
has been admired by millions of visitors over the years. It remains at the centre of a
controversy: should it stay in Britain or go back to its homeland, Egypt?
A few weeks ago, in December 2009, this controversy was once more in the news. Dr
Zahi Hawass, a well-known Egyptian scholar who has been fighting for the return of the
stone for several years, returned to London to argue his case.
A French soldier in Napoleonâs army discovered the stone in 1799, in El Rashid,
a village at the mouth of the River Nile, Egypt. When the French were defeated by the
British army, it was then taken to Britain and has remained there ever since.
The ancient stone is black granite, roughly rectangular in shape and 114 cm high. The
front of the stone is smooth and is inscribed with tiny writing, using three different
scripts. The top part is hieroglyphic, a script made up of small pictures which was used
by priests in Ancient Egypt (for example, there are images of a basket and an eye); the
middle section is written in demotic, the common script used in Egypt at the time; the last
section is in Greek, the language of administration, used by the rulers. The ancient stone
is from 196 BC, the Ptolemaic Period. The text is actually written by priests in honour of
their young 13-year-old king, Ptolemy.
The stone is important because it holds the key to understanding hieroglyphic, a script
which had died out centuries earlier and which no modern linguists had been able to
understand before the stoneâs discovery. Since the same text is written in three
languages,
in 1822 translators were able to use the other scripts on the stone to help decode the
hieroglyphics. Of course, this was of huge importance to Egypt and Egyptology.
Dr Zahi Hawass would like to place the artefact in a new museum near the Pyramids, to
be completed in 2012. He also wants to bring back other priceless objects from Ancient
Egypt held around the world and he accuses Britain and other countries of theft. It is
thought that the British Museum may finally agree to loan the Rosetta Stone for a few
months.
