Traders used wagons and camels to transport goods like silk, metals, gems, glass, horses, and gold between Europe and China. The Silk Road facilitated economic and cultural exchange between distant civilizations for centuries. A German scholar coined the term "Silk Road" in the 19th century to describe these trans-Eurasian trade networks of antiquity.

Southeast Asia had many ancient urban centers due to its location at the crossroads of global trade routes. Cities like Angkor, located in present-day Cambodia, grew to immense sizes due to control of long-distance trade of items like Chinese porcelain. Urban centers commonly had fortified walls and zones for trade, with women playing a major role in markets. Archaeological evidence also shows multi-ethnic populations in ancient Southeast Asian cities, including Chinese, Indian, and Persian influences. Major polities like the Hindu-Buddhist Majapahit kingdom in Java governed extensive urban networks into the 15th century CE.
Silk road

The lost city of atlantis
- Divers have explored the ruins of an ancient sunken city off the coast of Greece called Pavlopetri, which dates back around 5,000 years. This makes it the oldest submerged city ever discovered.
- The city covers an area of around 150 meters and contains structures like houses, streets, and religious buildings. Thousands of pottery shards were also found on the seabed.
- While Atlantis is considered a myth created by Plato, this discovery shows that ancient sunken cities did exist. It provides physical evidence for the idea that may have inspired the legend of Atlantis. However, the cause of Pavlopetri's submergence remains unclear.

Capernaum was an important biblical city that was the home and ministry center of Jesus. According to the Gospels, Jesus lived and taught in Capernaum, where he healed many people including Peter's mother-in-law and a Roman centurion's servant. Jesus chose Capernaum as the center of his ministry in Galilee after leaving Nazareth, likely because his first disciples Peter and Andrew lived there. Archaeological excavations have revealed a synagogue from the time of Jesus with thick walls where he taught.

A.为什么留学生需要操作留信认证?
留信认证全称全国留学生信息服务网认证,隶属于北京中科院。①留信认证门槛条件更低,费用更美丽,并且包过,完单周期短,效率高②留信认证虽然不能去国企,但是一般的公司都没有问题,因为国内很多公司连基本的留学生学历认证都不了解。这对于留学生来说,这就比自己光拿一个证书更有说服力,因为留学学历可以在留信网站上进行查询!
B.为什么我们提供的毕业证成绩单具有使用价值？
查询留服认证是国内鉴别留学生海外学历的唯一途径但认证只是个体行为不是所有留学生都操作所以没有办理认证的留学生的学历在国内也是查询不到的他们也仅仅只有一张文凭。所以这时候我们提供的和学校颁发的一模一样的毕业证成绩单就有了使用价值。乌龟和王八贼头贼脑的倒也逗人喜爱日上三竿时山娃总爱窜进自家瓜棚里跟小伙伴们坐着聊天聊着聊着便忍不住往瓜田里逡巡一番抱起一只硕大的西瓜用石刀劈开抑或用拳头砸开每人抱起一大块就啃啃得满嘴满脸猴屁股般的红艳大家一个劲地指着对方吃吃地笑瓜裂得古怪奇形怪状却丝毫不影响瓜味甜丝丝的满嘴生津遍地都是瓜横七竖八的活像掷满了一地的大石块摘走二三只爷爷是断然发现不了的即便发现爷爷也不恼反而教山娃辨认孰熟孰嫩孰甜孰淡水
