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.
Monument 1 was found in the city of La Ventain in the year of 1945; this colossal head was 7.9 feet in height and weighed about 24 tons. Exactly seventeen Olmec Colossal Heads have been discovered: ten at San Lorenzo, four at La Venta, two at Tres Zapotes and one at La Cobata. Six of the basalt heads weighs up to forty tons. Because La Venta was believed to be a city in the middle of a swap, The Olmecs had to travel more than fifty miles to collect the large stones. Exactly how they moved the rocks are unknown.
The skeletons of this early human have the same slight brow ridges, high forehead, upright posture, and slender bone structure as modern humans. (5) Their limbs were long, especially in the forearms and lower legs, body proportions suggesting to some anthropologists that their origins lie in warm climates, rather than Ice Age Europe. Cro-Magnons were the first humans to have a prominent chin. Their brain capacity was about 100 cubic inches larger than the average for modern humans. Adult males would often reach 6 feet 3 inches (190 cm).
For twenty years, theses deaths and disappearances were attributed to the so-called “Green River Killer,” which was an unidentified serial murderer (The Seattle). Detectives and forensic scientists reviewed hundreds of items of physical evidence and interviewed thousands of witnesses but the case remained unsolved until 2001. In 2001, the King County Prosecuting Attorney charged Gary Leon Ridgway with four of these murders because of DNA evidence (The Seattle). In the following year, additional forensic evidence led to three more murder charges. The seven charges implicated Ridgway in only a fraction of the Green River homicides.
Uhler explains, the expedition consisted of an impressive collection of scientists, artists, photographers and writers to explore the Alaska coast, from the southeast boundary all the way to the Seward Peninsula. Members of the expedition spent five days in Glacier Bay, and collected a wealth of data along with some memorable adventures. Soon after the Harriman party departed, the tourism and exploration in Glacier Bay came to an abrupt halt. According to Uhler, “In September 1899, a massive earthquake shattered the Muir Glacier. Masses of floating ice prevented ships from closely approaching the glacier for at least a decade, and the steamship companies removed Glacier Bay from their itineraries.” Over the next few decades, Uhler states; Glacier Bay belonged to a hardy assortment of scientists and adventurous entrepreneurs, as well as native seal hunters, fishermen and egg-gatherers.
As we are gathered here today thinking about the lives of the thirty-three men who are stuck in a copper mine, 2,000 feet deep. Now for more than 17 days, you may be wondering how did this happen and what efforts have been made to get our men home safely. Others questions that I will be willing to answer are; what is the company’s responsibility in the matter, how long will it take to rescue them? Will we be able to communicate with them or send them food? First let me clear up any miscommunication by giving an accurate detailed timeline about the collapse up to this point.
Homo erectus evolved into Homo sapiens and had dramatically smaller brains than us. Jared Diamond also states that there was another type of the same Genus called the Neanderthals. Homo neanderthalensis had brains larger than ours; they left behind strong evidence of burying their dead and caring for their sick, but still had crude stone tools with no recognizable function. Jared Diamond states that Human History “took off” around 50,000 years ago termed “The Great Leap Forward” with evidence of history’s first preserved jewelry. Fully modern skeletons of people termed “The Cro-Magnons” had used tools of bone.

He worked at a restaurant near the scene of both rapes. Thompson studied the pictures for five minutes. She picked up Ron Cotton’s photograph and said, “That’s the man that raped me”. In a weeklong trail Cotton was sentenced to life and 50 years. Seven years went by and Cotton heard about new DNA evidence that was exonerating falsely accused prisoners.
