Working in the emergency department of our local hospital, I see so many young girls ranging from fourteen (14) and older having babies while still being babies themselves. Some are going on baby number two. Although I don’t feel like they are necessarily throwing their lives away, they are definitely making high school and the continuance of a college career a challenge. One could say this is where, between being married young and having babies’ young, the age old saying “barefoot and pregnant” comes into play. I read an article on the internet that said Loretta Lynn once stated in an interview that she had four babies before she ever knew why she was having
to 330 B.C. Even though The Achaemenid Empire took place long ago, it is still known as one of the most culturally diverse and religiously open empires in history. The Kings of the empire decided to bring in new members with talent like Greek doctors, Lydian woodworkers and Ionian stonecutters, as well as foot soldiers from Ethiopia, Sogdiana and more places within the empire. This empire was the first hyperpower in history ruling about 42 million people. Chua concludes that a small number of Persians administer a very vase territory and population because of tolerance.
King Tut was king of Egypt for approximately four years so why do people consider him so important? Well it has always been scientist's interest in why this king died so young until 1922 when Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon were exploring the ancient tombs of Egypt they discovered the tomb of King Tutankhamen (Tut). They discovered a funerary temple thought to be built by Tutankhamen; he died before he finished building it so his sons finished it. His tomb is buried a mile away from the funerary temple. The Valley of Kings is believed to be where many of King Tut's family was buried.
With a colossal spread of over 1,260,000km², granting it the largest known ancient civilization. For over seven hundred years, the Indus civilization was thriving with excellence as seen in modern day religion & business, this soon declined and disappeared. But how could a civilization of such magnitude disappear leaving very little or even no traces? Archaeological excavations of Harappan sites began in 1842 by Charles Masson; many archaeologists persistently furthered the excavation of these sites. During this process, pieces of the jigsaw puzzle that is the Indus Valley Civilization have been fixed together suggesting answers to questions, but an extreme lack of definitive proof.
Even though little was known comedy seems to fill in the unknown facts and dialectic of her life. Mrs. Henry wants to clarify Aspasia existents and why she was misunderstood. Aspasia was not only a woman beauty but an important woman of Athens history in fifth century but also a person who played a key role in the intellectual development of Greece. I believe that she captivated this through known history facts through her first marriage which lasted a couple of years to Lysicles and then her relationship sexual ownership to Pericles. Mrs. Henry research on Aspasia birth and education leads us to believe that he was in line of lintier with the Aristocrats.

Primitive catapults were essentially “the product of relatively straightforward attempts to increase the range and penetrating power of missiles by strengthening the bow which propelled them”. [7] The historian Diodorus Siculus (fl. 1st century BC), described the invention of a mechanical arrow firing catapult (katapeltikon) by a Greek task force in 399 BC. [8][9] The weapon was soon after employed against Motya (397 BC), a key Carthaginian stronghold in Sicily.
Professional Life Inez Beverly Prosser was born in San Marcos, Texas on December 30th, probably in the year 1895; biographers are unsure of the exact date of her birth. Prosser was the oldest of 11 children and her family moved many times. At the time of her youth, there were few educational opportunities for African-Americans, and Prosser started an educational fund to help her siblings attend and complete high school and college. Her siblings all graduated high school, and five of them, eventually received college degrees, in addition to Prosser. Despite facing the significant obstacles of racism and sexism, her academic achievements were impressive.
Whether the newcomers brought the style with them or developed it after arriving we do not know, nor when it began, but it ended about the middle of the eighth century, and may perhaps have lasted for as much as two centuries. At all Greek sites small figures or mold made reliefs of baked clay are among the commonest finds, and Sparta is no exception. They occurred in large quantities at all three main sites, and in lesser numbers at minor shrines at Sparta and elsewhere in Laconia. One of the surprises of the original excavations at Sparta was the discovery on the orthia site of more than two hundred ivory carvings, complete or fragmentary, in contexts ranging from well down in the geometric layers to the end of Laconia. The craft of carving ivory had disappeared from Greece with the Mycenaean civilization, but it had been kept alive in Syria, where by the eight century two schools had developed, one in the north based on Anatolian and ultimately Mesopotamia models, and one in Phoenicia under Egyptian
Fewer than 4% of women are still illiterate. Women did not have the right to vote until 1953. From a political point of view, there have been two more women candidates for president since Rosario Ibarra de Piedra. Women do still do most of the housework. This will most likely never change.
In addition, the Ancient Chinese also were the first people to learn how to harvest silk and use it in clothing and paper. The oldest silk discovered dates to around 3.630 BC and came from the Chinese Neolithic period. Silk was not just an important invention for life but it also was a bridge that connected China to the world. The Silk Road is over 2000 years old and it is still an important path for cultural, commercial, and technological exchanges that occur between the East and West (Liyao, 2011). Also, archaeological evidence confirms that iron was developed
