Monte Verde

covered in ice from the ice age and not covered in water like it is now. Though there is much evidence suggesting the Clovis being the first to migrate to the Americas, new research has since “debunked” Clovis-First Theory in favor of The Monte Verde Migration Theory. This Theory revolves around a archaeological evidence found in Monte Verde, Chile in 1979. Anthropology.net describes this as the earliest known evidence of humans in the America’s because of findings such as human remains, extinct animals, and a multitude of artifacts which dated as far back as 14,500 years ago. Furthermore, it is also suspected these ancestors/co-descendents would have crossed the Bering Strait as well, just significantly earlier than the Clovis. Because the archaeological evidence is merely dated older in Monte Verde, Chile than in Clovis, New Mexico, I believe this is enough to prove that the former theory contains more sound evidence as to our ancestors earliest origins in relations to our migration to the New World. However, I would not say that the Clovis Theory is completely false. It is clear that the Clovis people did exist and that they were one of the first civilizations to come to the New World, but due to the outstanding evidence of the Monte Verde Theory, we can fairly conclude that they are not the oldest.…

This path was along the glacier by the Bering Landbridge. Most historians believe technological developments in travel like boats is how the first people arrived.

The most likely correct theory is the Pacific Coast Migration because of the strong evidence proving this model. First of all, data collected from the Beringia and the Pacific Rim area, show seafaring culture who in their travels could have come across the Americas. Furthermore, in order for some South American sites to be established, such as Monte Verde, humans would have to have left Beringia earlier than the ice free corridor opened. The Pacific Coast Migration could have occurred around…

But more on today later, first circle back to 650 A.D., when the Sinagua people entered the Verde Valley. To place 650 A.D. in historical perceptive, the Muslim conquests to unify Arabia under the Prophet Muhammad started around 622. These conquests brought an end to the Byzantine Empire, which itself comprised the eastern remnants of the Roman Empire. So yes, we’re talking a long, long time ago. The Sinagua culture is known for its art--petroglyphs, pottery and basketry--as well as its masonry.…

In the essay “How To Tame A Wild Tongue” by Gloria Anzaldua the author touches upon issues like the division within and between languages and how an attack on her language is an attack on her as a human being. The author overcomes much adversity as she is not only prosecuted for her language by English speakers but by some people within her own culture.Her own mother had told her that without learning to speak English without an accent she would never be able to amount to anything worthwhile in…

Before I mention three points that I saw as important, I would like to say thank you for presenting this summary to the class. I’ve order the book, because I feel that Fullan ushered in some very valuable concepts that will benefit me as I move forward in a new phase of my career as an administrator. The first important point for me from this summary of Michael Fullan’s book by Jenn David-Lang in The Main Idea, were the four wrong policy drivers. I agree with Fullan in that a principal needs…

Cape Verde is an islandic country located on the west coast of Africa. The Cape Verdean culture is a unique mixture of European and African elements, as it was colonized by Portugal until 1975. National identity is rather fragmented, mainly because of the geographical division of the islands. The northern tend to identify more with the Portuguese colonizers, whereas the southern have a closer cultural affinity with Africa. This can be seen in the different dialect of Creole spoken in the North,…
