This would have created much better defence from attack than a wooden fort. However there is no solid evidence that there was ever a Motte of earth crowned by timber buildings, it has only been mentioned in fictional stories which could stretch the truth. King John had Kenilworth Castle from 1174 – 1244 and used it for defence and strategic importance. New features were built such as a Great Tower, a single bailey causeway, the outer circuit made of stone with towers and improved water defences. The King built these because he wanted it to be a strongly defended royal castle.
The beginning of realistic depictions of humans in Greek art began in the Archaic period (700-480 BC). Active sculptors in this period were influenced by the Egyptians. However the fact that the Greek sculptures were represented in the nude was a major difference between the two. Male sculptures created during this period showed no emphasis on bone and muscle anatomy. This was clearly evident by the lack of details around the joints in the knees and arms.
Henry had little available soldiers in England due to the Wars of the Roses, or the necessary financial resources to fund such a campaign. Instead it seemed more appropriate for him to work on constructing links between his country and other he deemed as good partners for England. An example of one of these links created by Henry was the Medina del Campo, an allegiance with Spain uniting the nations against the possible French threat. The treaty was first negotiated in 1489, with the arranged marriage of Henry’s son, Arthur, and Catherine of Aragon of Spain, cementing the deal. Another example was Henry’s immediate truce with Scotland in 1486, when a three year peace treaty was signed, which was only eventually ended due to the death of James III in 1488 and his successor, the 15 year old James IV, whose anti-Anglo attitude disrupted any potential amnesty between the states until 1497 when the treaty of Ayton was signed.
LB+:There should have been bacterial growth but no blue colonies because there was an anti-biotic acting against it. LB-: Nothing should have happened because there was no bacteria and plasmid given. 3. One of the plates should have no growth and that was the LB- plate. This happened because the plate was given no bacteria or anything to start growth.
The second amendment gave the colonists the right to bear arms, allowing them to protect themselves. In addition to this, the King forced the colonists to house troops in their homes and the third amendment prohibits the quartering of soldiers due to the rights of privacy. Another complaint in the Declaration of Independence that trading with other countries was stopped by the King. Section 8 of article 1 of the Constitution allows for interstate commerce, but the laws for this vary by state. One of the major complaints was taxation without representation which is addressed in the sixteenth amendment which only taxes based on income and only through
His audience is most likely the general American population since the book is giving information on an important piece of American history. The book goes in chronological order from before the expedition was even being thought of to the end of the journey.

If you've lived in Miami, you no doubt know the Freedom Tower’s silhouette. It is a distinctive part of our skyline. Its rich history and symbolism have now been preserved for all to enjoy for many generations to come. Freedom Tower was built in the Mediterranean Revival style in 1925, when it housed the offices of the Metropolis and Miami News. It is said that it was inspired by the Giralda Tower in Seville, Spain.
On the second Monday of every October, Americans celebrate the day Christopher Columbus and his crew of other renaissance Europeans arrived to the New World. This is one of only two American national holidays to be named after a specific person, the other being Martin Luther King Day. It takes a great person to achieve this honour, so why is one of the greatest genocides of its time remembered as a positive achievement? Born October 31st, 1451, in north-western Italy, in the Republic of Genora, Christopher Columbus was a navigator, colonizer, and explorer. At age fourteen he went to sea and his love for exploration flourished.
Soft corals (like sea fingers and sea whips) do not build reefs. Corals cannot stand temperatures that drop below their average of 18°C. As a result, this restricts their habitat to waters between 23°N and 23°S latitude. As well as latitude, current is important. An example would be in Florida, the last reefs finish around Miami even though specific coral species can be located in the Coralinas.
The Hurricane of 1900 The Hurricane of 1900 was the first hurricane to be recorded in history. It happened before tropical storms were given names, so it is often referred to under a variety of different names. Some of these include the “Great Galveston Hurricane,” the “Turn of the century hurricane,” or most commonly the “Galveston Flood.” At the end of the 19th century, the city of Galveston was a booming metropolis with a population of 37,000. It’s position on Galveston Bay along the Gulf of Mexico made it the center of trade in Texas. Galveston was one of the largest cotton ports in the nation at the time, rivaling New Orleans.
