Italy There are many interesting things about Italy. Like The Bronze and Iron Age. The Bubonic plague also known as The Black Death started in Italy, The Renaissance of the arts, When Italy became one, Modern Italy, The geography of Italy, and The Economy of Italy. In the early second millennium B.C. Italy was in the Bronze Age. The Bronze Age is for studying prehistoric societies practically the ancient societies. During the Bronze Age a cultural pattern had already formed. Most of the people that lived in Italy at the time were the Mycenaeans, Phoenicians, and Greeks. They migrated west by ship via the Mediterranean Sea. In the second millennium B.C. the Latin’s migrated through the passes in the Alps to settle in primitive farming villages. In Italy there were different languages spoken and different cultures that could…
1. Europe has not always been as prominent as it is today. The first civilizations to develop in 4000 BC were Mesopotamia, Egypt, Indus River Valley, and China. During that time Europe was still in the Neolithic Age. However, in 2000 BC, Europe suddenly went from the Neolithic Age to the Bronze Age and immediately to the Iron Age in a matter of 150 years. This took the first civilizations 2000 years to accomplish. The cause of this is thought to be due to the Aryan migration. For a short time…
Iron smelting and forging technologies have existed in African societies between about 1000 and 500 B.C.E. The Iron Age is an important period in Africa that is often met with diffusion theories, on whether or not iron began there. Iron smelting, and other smelting is still used today in certain parts of Africa. Hitherto stone had been the strongest material around for making tools and weapons. Metal was a far more high quality raw material, compared to others, as it could be made into an…
South Africa’s history helped set the stage for major violence to occur. Readers of Coetzee’s Age of Iron were able to experience this first hand, and through lecture were able to gain an understanding of South Africa’s history. The history of South Africa is significant because, it shows a story in history that has been told many times, the story of a need for change, a revolution. This feeling and emotion of violence is not native to South African history, but World History. People feel…
To whom it may concern. I am an exhibition planner for the Museum of Science and Technology in Ottawa and we are currently in the process of preparing for next year’s special Exhibition. An object rich in history and culture would be Gutenberg’s printing press. This object was the invention that historians consider changed how civilization evolved. This change is often compared to when humans discovered iron which ended the Neolithic Era (new stone age) and entered the Age of Empire (also…
Bodybuilding over the past 150 years has skyrocketed in popularity. It gained most of its crowd in the 1970’s or the “Iron Age”. How did bodybuilding start? How has it evolved over the years? Although bodybuilding is relatively new, weight lifting has been around for thousands of years. In the 6ht century B.C. an Olympic wrestler named Milo built his strength by carrying a calf on his back up a mountain every day until it became a bull. He found out that an important part of building strength is…

Over 99% of the calcium in the human body strengthens bones and teeth. Calcium is often, found in dairy products like milk and cheese. Some secondary sources for calcium are in foods like bread, rolls, and crackers. Calcium has several functions; such as blood clotting,…
Oxygen and Iron. Hypothesis: Independent Variables Dependent Variables Controlled Variables • Iron wool ball – When it is dipped in various types of liquid it may react to the oxygen in the liquid and chemical changes happen eg: Colour change = rusting • Thermometer – predicting the temperature of the iron wool ball below the room temperature • No substances or variable be kept the same If the off chance that the Iron wool ball is plunged in various sorts of liquid then the…
Iron is the next commonest metal on the earth. It may be found in the sun as well as in other, different types of stars. Iron is a one of the main elements used for meteorite classification. Meteorite classification is a group of meteorites of common origin, for example a planet moon asteroid or basically the other object in solar system. A German chemist called Gunter Wanchtershauser discovered reactions of Iron sulphide(FeS) with a help of another philosopher called Karl R.Poppe. Iron has an…
Throughout the Bronze and Iron Ages, people have discovered a useful process, we now use today, called welding. Many do not realize how important welding truly is in our world, even history, but when anyone is looking or walking around, there’s welding everywhere you go. They’re many types of welding, with different features and processes used on an object or material, that are opaque to your eyes. Oxygen acetylene (OAW) is one of the most used welds compared to others. It's used in our…
