Prehistorical people started to build houses during Neolithic period using clay, mud, dung, and straw interwoven among wooden posts. Some better huts might have foundations made of stone, set into trenches, and supporting walls of large timbers (Stokstad, p.13). The Styles of houses were vary in different regions. These houses were rebuild again and again over time, and human burials were found under these houses. That makes it very difficult to determine whether or not these houses were used as…

Sophia Nguyen Period 5 Chapter 1 Document 1. I feel that Nisa’s account of her life helps with understanding the much earlier Paleolithic people is very helpful because it gives a first person perspective on the life of a person living in a hunting-gathering society, like the Paleolithic people. Because Nisa doesn’t get much exposure to people outside her society, communicating with others was especially more important to her. 2. To Nisa, sex was very important to her because she didn’t want to…

“The Binds That Tie Summer Solstice and Horror Movies” Written by: Paula Limbaugh and Reviewed by Farrah Hardy Horror, how I love thee, so many summer camps, so little time. I grew up in a haunted house and in its hay day, a funeral home and a church. Needless to say, I stick to the horror genre because it makes me the happiest. “Write what you know,” is what I’ve been told. If I had my choice, it would always be horror. The title was what this horror and mystical lover yearned for, and…

one knew how it was used or why it was even built. It showed people the history that it all contained; yet it ultimately created a sense of creativity for the prehistoric stones. Experiencing the breath-taking views of the surrounding landscape of Stonehenge and imagining the rich history that took place there was truly captivating. It showed me that there were a lot of amazing adventures in the world that was full of history, self-discovery, and uncertainties; however, it gave me a perspective…

The universe is an infinitely growing sphere which is calculated to be 46.5 billion light years in diameter. This sphere contains the space in which billions of stars are contained. Some of these regions have small rocks called planets. Humans inhabit one of these planets which is instilled in a perfect system called the solar system. However, mankind may not be the only ones to have a system in which life can thrive on. There may be others that live in their own planets like us. In fact, some…

Comparing the ancientness of the structure to Stonehenge or the pyramids in Egypt, Irvine neglects to later use these examples to emphasise his hypothesis. Both the technology of the pyramids and the uses of Stonehenge are also lost in time, just like the medicine wheel. Some of the theories applied to the medicine wheel and Stonehenge are usually either spiritual or related to astronomy and its calendar applications. No one could claim that…

Religion started as an awareness of oneself and then the awareness of something more than us and probably began at the time when humans began to cultivate in the Paleolithic era between 10,000 and 40,000 years ago. Religion has occurred in each segment of art in different cultures. As history evolved, culture evolved from cave paintings to elaborate sculptures and architecture. Polytheism I believe started as an earlier practice than monotheism since the earliest cultures like the Egyptian…
