=__Assignment 2__= Directions: Read the following information about the Minoans and the Mycenaeans and then answer the questions that follow **in your notebook**.

The Minoans:** Minoan culture developed on the island of Crete in approximately 3,000 B.C.E. Minoan palace murals (wall paintings) and painted pottery show us a great sea culture, fueled by fishing, farming, and local arts. The Minoans were master sailors and set up long-distance trade routes with Spain, Egypt, Canaan, and Asia Minor. Socially, the Minoans were an egalitarian (equal) culture, with both men and women holding respected positions in the fields of religion, agriculture, and craftwork. Recreation enjoyed by the Minoans included dancing to music and song, "bull-leaping" - and boxing, complete with boxing gloves and mouth guards. The remarkable peace-loving character of the Minoan civilization is obvious because they didn't have fortresses, war equipment, and painted battle scenes among the remains of their settlements. The Minoan civilization is historically important to Greece because it was the model for the Mycenaean (pronounced my-sih-NEE-in) civilization which is considered the earliest developed culture on mainland Greece.
 * __The Origins of the Greeks__

Mycenae was settled in 2,700 B.C.E. Most of the myths about ancient Greek heroes and their famous battles come to us from the Mycenaeans. Later Greek poets such as Homer used these tales in their writings. The Mycenaeans spoke an early form of the Greek language, and developed an agricultural economy based on grains, grapes, and olives. Like the Minoans, they traded by sea with Egypt and Asia Minor. Unlike the Minoans, the Mycenaeans devoted most of their energies to developing a strong military. The circular royal tombs of Mycenae reveal collections of decorated uniforms, elaborate helmets, chariots, daggers, and axes. Horses were also extremely important to the Mycenaeans, as they were the vehicles of war. Mycenaean documents suggest that their society was hierarchical, with kings and soldiers in positions of power at the top of society, and prisoners of war who became slaves at the bottom of society who served the kings and soldiers. Other than artwork showing religious festivals and musical performances, very few artifacts of entertainment were left by the Mycenaeans.
 * The Mycenaeans:**

//1. What did the Minoan and the Mycenaean civilizations have in common?// //2. In what ways were the Minoan and the Mycenaean civilizations different?// //3. Why do you think so many aspects of Minoan civilization are found at Mycenae?// //4. What other geographical areas, besides Mycenae, might Minoan civilization have influenced?// //5. What aspects of Minoan and Mycenaean civilizations would you expect to have survived in later periods of Greek history?// //6. Using your **textbook pages 256-257**, explain how the decline of the Minoans and the Mycenaeans was similar.//

 * Source:** Online Textbook pages 162-171


 * Directions:** You are a sage and you will teach your classmates a part of ancient India's history. The four parts (groups) are...
 * Group 1: The Mauryan Empire (page 162-163, 166)
 * Group 2: The Gupta Empire (page 164-165)
 * Group 3: Indian Achievements- Religious Art & Sanskrit Literature (page 167-169)
 * Group 4: Indian Achievements- Scientific Advances (page 170-171)

Each part has (or might have) pictures, illustrations, maps, dates, vocabulary words, and important people. Your job as a sage is to become an expert on your part so you will be able to comfortably and confidently teach others. Remember that if you don't understand the information, you won't be able to teach others properly. Follow these steps to become a great sage:

__**Steps**__
 * 1) Read all the information on the pages you are responsible for. Don't just read the main parts, look at the other information such as maps or diagrams or pictures.
 * 2) Take notes in your notebook and answer the **//Reading Check//** question after each section to make sure you understand the information. You also have to answer the questions about your section from **page 176** (section 4 or 5).
 * 3) Present the information to your students but first decide how you are going to present the information. Will you just talk about the information (this can be boring) or will you use visuals or give a slideshow presentation (this can be more interesting)? Remember that your students have not read the information and are counting on you to teach them in an interesting and educational way.
 * 4) Check your students understanding. How will you check if your students understood the information? Will you make up questions to ask them? Will you ask them to write answers to the questions you had to answer in step 2? What else will you do? Will you ask your students to create something that shows their understanding? Think about how you are taught at school and the activities you do in your classes. Your students would probably have more fun if they made something that shows they understand the information.
 * 5) Your students must do the work you give them. They (**and you**) must also do the following:
 * add at least two important events to their timelines (you choose the important events from your part)
 * add two markers/labels to their scribble map (you choose what should be labeled from your part)

1. What have you learned about daily life in Mohenjo-Daro from this activity? From this activity that daily life in Mohenjo-Daro is very similar to our daily life. I can see that they had fun by playing games by looking at dice and games they have. Also by looking at the clay figure of cart I can see that they traded with other civilization. By looking at the drain I can see that they wanted to keep their city clean. 2. Which characteristics of civilization do you see represented in the artifacts you looked at? Explain. Statue of priest king shows different **social levels**(like rich people and poor people) and **government** in Mohenjo-Daro. Figure of cart and farmer shows that they had **regular food supplies.** Figure of cart and clay bricks for measuring shows **different jobs**, such as trader, and farmer. Great bath is used for purifying themselves for religious ceremony this proves that they are very **religious.** Different statue, figures, houses,game and seals shows that they had **highly developed culture** such as art. 3. In what ways do you think Mohenjo-Daro was like a modern city? Just like normal city there is houses that people can live and games for fun. Also they had drains to get rid of waste and dirty water. They had scales just like modern city. 4. Why do you think it is difficult for us to know exactly what life was like in ancient civilizations like those in the Indus-Sarasvati region? First of all it is very old civilization so lots of them are destroyed. Also many artifacts and building are covered by dust and other things. Also we can't read their writing. 5. What do you think might have contributed to the decline of Mohenjo-Daro? I think Mohenjo-Daro came to end because later Savasvati river dried up. Since the city was near the Savasvati river so they get water and fertile land from there. Therefore when river dried up they had to spread out to other place to settle.

 * Directions: Look at the map above, read the text below, and answer the following questions on your wiki page:**

Early Indian agricultural settlements arose in the Indus-Sarasvati river region at least as far back as 6500 B.C.E. Like many other ancient peoples, the early Indians settled by rivers. They settled primarily on the banks of the Sarasvati River as well as along the banks of the Indus River. These rivers provided the ancient Indians with plenty of water, and the land near the rivers was fertile and excellent for growing crops. The rivers also provided the Indians with a convenient way to travel and trade among themselves and with other civilizations. Archeologists have found artifacts from the Indus-Sarasvati civilization - such as carved seals - in Mesopotamia's Sumer. These discoveries have led scholars to believe that the early Indians traded with Mesopotamia, possibly by traveling in ships down the Indus and Sarasvati rivers to the Arabian Sea and then west to Sumer and other locations. After the Sarasvati River dried up around 1900 B.C.E., the Indus-Sarasvati Indians moved to more habitable areas, such as the fertile banks of the Ganga river further east. Archeological evidence shows, however, that people settled by the Ganga River as far back as 5000 B.C.E.
 * I**n the 1990's, satellite pictures revealed an ancient, dried riverbed located in India's present-day Thar Desert. Geologists have identified this riverbed as the route of the ancient **Sarasvati River**. The Sarasvati lay east of the Indus River and generally followed the same course, originating in the Himalaya mountains and emptying into the Arabian Sea. Geologists believe that the Sarasvati River dried up around 1900 B.C.E. Over time, the once fertile area around the Sarasvati River dried up around 1900 B.C.E. Over time, the once fertile area around the Sarasvati evolved into the dry, hot desert that exists today.

1. In what ways is your map similar to the one that you see in the map above? First of all, the map and my map both labeled similar physio graphic features. 2. What physiographic features can you identify on this map that are not on your map? In my map I can't identify Sarasvati River but can in the map above. 3. Why do you think settlements developed along the Indus and Saravati rivers? Explain with clear and complete details. I think it is because it is very fertile land which is good for farming and it is very close to Kyberpass, where they can trade corps with other civilization. 4. Accurately draw and label the ancient Sarasvati River on your map. Ok, I did. 5. Why did ancient Indian people eventually migrate to the Ganga River? Sarasvati River dried up at around 1900 B.C.E. So early Indians had to find new land for farming so they spread out to more east to Ganga River.

 * The Old Kingdom (2700 BCE-2200 BCE): ** In Old Kingdom also known as pyramid age, pharaohs had absolute power and were considered gods on earth. But that's not why this kingdom is nicknamed "The Pyramid Age". Pharaohs were buried in pyramids only during this time period in history. Pyramid is huge stone tomb with four triangle shaped sides that met in a point on top. The largest pyramid is Great Pyramid of Khufu near Giza. It’s hight is 481 high and they used thousand of workers and 2 million limestone block. All that workers are framers from village. During the flood season there is no work to do so they go and help building a pyramid. Burial in a pyramid demonstrated a pharaoh’s importance. The size and the shape the symbolized the Pharaoh’s afterlife. Egyptians wanted pyramid to be spectacular because they believed that the Pharaoh is link to the gods so they must make his sprit happy.

Pharaoh couldn’t gather enough taxes for building pyramid. That time nobles ruled much if the Egypt. Around 2050B.C.E one of the pharaoh defeated his rivals and Middle Kingdom started. Around 1750B.C.E Hyksos from Southwest Asia invaded Lower Egypt and ruled for 200 years. Later Egypt fought back and drove Hyksos out of Egypt. Egypt built strong armies to defend herself against her neighbors. During the time period of the middle kingdom, pharaohs were expected to be good kings and wise rulers. And pharaohs were buried in hidden tombs, all over the place. Most probably, there are tombs yet to be discovered because they were hidden so well.

 * The New Kingdom (1500 BCE-1000 BCE): **The new kingdom was Egypt's expansion period. Pharaoh Ahmose began Egypt’s New Kingdom in 1550 and lasted until 1050 B.C.E. During the New Kingdom conquest and trade brought wealth to pharaohs. After battling the Hyksos, Pharaohs were afraid of invasions in future. Therefore they just decided to invade other area as much as possible. Their first target was homeland of Hyksos across the sea. And they went north and conquered Syria. They conquered most of the eastern shore of mediterranean sea. By 1400s B.C.E. Egypt became leading military power region. They kept extended their kingdom from Euphrates River to southern Nubia. This made Egypt rich country. The trade of Egypt also expend as Empire, they also had this trade route, path where followed by traders. Also most of the land that Egypt invade had lots of rare and good stuff such as wood and gold. One of the ruler that made trading go well was Queen Hatshepsut. She traded with kingdom of Punt on the Red Sea and north to trade with people in Asia Minor and Greece. She use money from trading in art and architecture. In 1200s B.C.E. the pharaoh called Ramses 2 fought with Hitties but after many years of battling they couldn’t defeat each others. When Tehenu invaded Nile Delta Ramses defeated them. However after Ramses died that strong warriors called Sea Peoples, they crushed Hitties and Southwest Asia. Fortunately Egypt survived but they lost their whole Asia Empire and Egypt fell in period of violence and disorder. New Kingdom came to the end.

(Note: This should be a long answer.) On the top of the society there is pharaoh which is the ruler who has control of Egypt and right under him high classes such as priest, key government officials called nobles which are people from rich and powerful families. Below the nobles there are middle class people who are lesser government officials such as scribes, and a few rich craftspeople. The lowest people in society, more than 80 percent of the population are framers, most ably and some slaves and servants. 6.b. What may be some advantages and disadvantages of such a large segment of the population being farmers, servants, and slaves? Advantages are since there are lots of people to work the work will be done quickly and more people will produce a lots of stuff but the disadvantages are that the government will be very busy because if there are lost of lower class people there will be lots of rebellion. 6.c. What did farmers do during flood season? Since there are not able to farm and work on the field they usually they work for pharaoh they work for the building project. 7.

 * Directions:** Read the questions/directions carefully and write **clear and detailed** answers on your wiki page.

1. Read the "If you were there..." section on page 74. How will you advise the King? I will punish the common people more harsh than nobles because nobles are the one who have money and pay lots of taxes but if the government punish them harsher than common people they will get mad and stop paying lots of taxes. 2. What happened to Ur by 2000 BCE? Many invaders attacked Ur so it lost it's strength and about 2000 B.C.E Ur lay in ruins. They lost their power so invaders gain control of Mesopotamia. 3. Where was Babylon located? Near Euphrates River now Baghdad, Iraq. 4. Who became the king of Babylon? When did he become king? A king Hammurabi became king of the Babylon in 1792B.C.E. 5. What is a monarch? Monarch means a ruler of kingdom or empire. 6. After conquering all of Mesopotamia, what did Hammurabi call his empire? Babylonian Empire 7. Hammurabi was a great warrior and leader. What other skills did he have? He was also good at governing huge empire, he could build irrigation system project well, improved Babylonian taxes and increased trade 8. What is Hammurabi's Code? What areas of daily life did the code cover? Hammurabi's Code is code that contains 282 law that cover almost every parts of daily life such as trade, loans, and theft to marriage, injury, and murder. 9. Give two reasons why Hammurabi's Code was important. It covers almost every parts of daily life and also it is written. Also it was the first detailed written law. 10. What eventually happened to the Babylonian Empire? How is this similar to what happened to the Akkadian Empire? Like Akkadian Empire after Hammurabi's death, after ruler couldn't keep huge empire safe from invaders so Babylonian Empire came to end. 11. Read the different laws in the [|Code of Hammurabi on this site] and choose **three** that you think are interesting. __**Copy**__ the three laws and their **numbers** onto your page.

You can write about if you disagree or agree with the law or if you think the law is a good law or a cruel law. 282. **If a slave say to his master: "You are not my master," if they convict him his master shall cut off his ear.** //I disagree with this law because I think Hammurabi have to protect people equally and it is kind of ridiculous to cut of slaves ear just because of that. This law kind of cruel and gross instead of cutting of slave’s ear I think it is better to just give them other punishments.// 110. **If a "sister of a god" open a tavern, or enter a tavern to drink, then shall this woman be burned to death.** //I really disagree with this law because sister of god sometimes can have some drinks when they are mad or sad about sometimes. Also it is bad to burn sister of god in to death because god will be mad.// 127. **If any one "point the finger" (slander) at a sister of a god or the wife of any one, and can not prove it, this man shall be taken before the judges and his brow shall be marked (by cutting the skin, or perhaps hair.)** //Well for this I kind of agree it is bad thing to slander someone without a reason because it hurts others feeling but I don’t think Hammurabi should cut the skin or hair. It is better to kill that person if government is going to cut the skin. This is one of the most cruel law I ever heard of.//

__**Assignment 1**__
Answer the following questions and define the vocabulary clearly and with details on your wiki page. Use the handout from class called Event A: Food Shortage to help you answer the questions.

1. What helped the human population to grow in Mesopotamia?** With the abundant rainfall and mild weather, farming was easy which increased the village's food supply. The increased food supply, strong shelter, and technology helped the increase of human population. Cultivate means to grow. They did not have enough land to grow food for the increasing population. I chose A, increase the number of times each year that farmers plant their crops because people will have more food, and also the other choices are not the best choices. For example, for choice D, the consequences will only be more severe because the attacked villages will most likely attack back. Choice C is not the best way because after thousands of years of hunting and gathering, the people began farming which resulted in an increase of population. Therefore, it wouldn't be a good idea to return to the past. Last, choice B is not the best way either because even though the river plain were spacious and unoccupied, the lands were very hard and dry during most of the year.
 * Food Shortage
 * 2. What does cultivate mean?**
 * 3. By 5000 B.C.E. what major problem did the farmers in the Zagros hills have?**
