henges and astronomy? The astronomical significance of Stonehenge was further reinforced by groups of archaeologists surveying approximately 900 other stone circles beside the site and they detected ‘more astronomical alignments as the circumference of surveys became gradually of a closer proximity to Stonehenge' (Hill "Stonehenge" 2008). Provided each stone circle forms astronomical alignments, we can be convinced that astronomy was of definite significance to the people during the…

Common examples of items we use today originated back in the Paleolithic era. Weapons and tools such as harpoons, cleavers, chisels, spears, and hand axes are used even today for fishing and the cutting of trees or animals. Over the years these tools have advanced from being made of stones and sticks to being made of strong metals smelted together. On page 3 it states "following the end of the Ice Age, however, communities in some parts of the world began to domesticate plants and…

Thinking Anthropologically Kendall Jenner recently got a white dot as a tattoo, same color as her broken heart tattoo. She wanted to be in with the current tattoo trend. She didn’t want anything big though, to her it’s the little things that matter. She didn’t want her tattoos to show since she is a model and it is important that she doesn’t have any showing. Her broken heart tattoo shows that during that time is her life her heart was broken and getting that tattoo helps her to mend that…

and the Bronze Age was the second period of the system, before the Iron Age and after the Stone Age. It began in 4000 BCE and lasted until 1500 BCE. It was distinguished by the use of bronze. The Bronze Age was a period of time after the Neolithic Age when ancient humans upgraded from making tools out of stone and hunting and gathering their food to mining and smelting copper and tin in order to make bronze tools, weapons, and farm equipment and learning about agriculture. This gave them the…

I believe that when we research history it’s very important to start with the paleo-Neo era because they are the most important parts of human life. The Paleolithic era is the stone age when we had begun using stone tools. The people of the old stone age era left no written records, they only left physical remains. While the Neolithic began at the end of the last ice age this era brought out the continuation of the social and technological evolution. The people of this era began to make weapons…

Neolithic Ages led to new technologies which ultimately permitted the formation of the civilizations and societies today. Paleolithic is the beginning part of what is known as the Stone Age, enduring for only about 2.6 million years, when the first stone tools were used. The Paleolithic Age, Greek meaning for “Old Stone”, is the period in the development of the modern man. During this time…

Hunting knives have been around since the Stone Age. Stone, bone and shells were first used as knives. The one thing they had in common with today's knives is that they were sharpened on stone. Egyptians generally used long handled spears to capture prey. They were the first to attach wooden handles to their stone blades. The Egyptians primarily used knives for skinning and cutting meat. Greeks made knives of bronze that were used in Asia and Europe during the time period of the 8th to the 6th…

intricate guitar solos, and screaming vocals. People don’t usually think of slow, smooth, bluesy guitar playing when they think of rock music, but what most people don’t realize is that without the blues, musicians such as the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, and even AC/DC would not exist. Blues music has had a dramatic influence the way rock music has, and is currently played, heard, and thought of in today's scope of music. For instance, when listening to rock music…

In the Paleolithic Era, humans survived by using stones, bones, and other natural products to make tools. Also, leather and vegetable fibers had been usage to early humans society; however due to their nature these haven’t been preserved to any great degree. Not to mention, humans gather plant products, trapping small animals, and hunting large preys for food. During this time, humans grouped together in small societies such as band and subsisted. Living with larger groups would had been…

One thing I learn was the first religious ritual was imitation was to encourage a situation. Many just thought the world would be how God made it out to be with no change, but that was back then now it different but some events never change. The Stone Age was a very important era they understood survival and everything that was in their environment was created for a reason. I notice their belief and values are kind of similar but is different in some ways too relating to today. Next, I would…
