Other Evidence of Neandertal Culture Much can be inferred about Neandertal culture from the archaeological evidence. For instance, it is probable that in colder climates they wore some sort of protective clothing to keep warm. In all likelihood, they used animal skins for this purpose. There are two sources of indirect evidence for this. First, many Neandertal sites have stone awls or borers. These were flakes that had been shaped to produce a beak-like projection on one end or side.…

Theodore Roosevelt once stated, “Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.” He certainly did just that during his life.

Also, during his presidency, he became known as the Trust-Buster while also campaigning for an expansion of the power of the presidency. He also was a big…

The ban made it legal to trade in one’s own country, but illegal to export the ivory to other…

The Importance of Bees in the Environment and a Guide to Beekeeping Honey bees live in highly intricate communes or colonies of as many as 100,000 bees; the largest population of bees in a beehive are worker bees, which are unfertile females. Worker bees also perform most of the work in the beehive. The work includes gathering nectar, water and pollen and cleaning and feeding the queen. The other functions performed by the worker bees are cooling or heating the beehive, whenever it is necessary;…

In charting the origin of social hierarchies and control systems, many radical theorists take a materialist stance, and attribute authoritarian behavior to surpluses resulting from agricultural production and other aspects of the civilization process. The fact that some non-agricultural, hunter-gatherer societies developed hierarchical social structures offers a critical contradiction to the materialist view, and presents the key to understanding the origin of hierarchy. Anarchists, whether we…
