The tribes in the central, northeastern part of what is now the United States were sometimes called mound builders because of how they buried their dead. Some mounds were simple, rounded shapes of soil over the top of one buried individual. Other mounds had complicated shapes and often contained the remains of many people who were buried with personal possessions such as jewelry, pottery, and clothing. The Great Serpent Mound in Ohio is shaped like a huge snake swallowing an egg and is over 1300 feet long and 6 feet high.

    Extractions: ANCIENT CIVILIZATIONS the requirements and patterns to development The Ancient City of Jericho  The term civilization basically means the level of development at which people live together peacefully in communities. Ancient civilization refers specifically to the first settled and stable communities that became the basis for later states, nations, and empires. The study of ancient civilization is concerned with the earliest segments of the much broader subject called ancient history. The span of ancient history began with the invention of writing in about 3100 BC and lasted for more than 35 centuries. Mankind existed long before the written word, but writing made the keeping of a historical record possible. The first ancient societies arose in Mesopotamia and Egypt in the Middle East, in the Indus Valley region of modern Pakistan, in the Huang He (Yellow River) valley of China, on the island of Crete in the Aegean Sea, and in Central America. All of these civilizations had certain features in common. They built cities, invented forms of writing, learned to make pottery and use metals, domesticated animals, and created fairly complex social structures with class systems. Apart from written records and carved inscriptions, the knowledge about ancient peoples is derived from the work of archaeologists. Most of the significant archaeological findings have been made in the past 200 years. The Sumerian culture of Mesopotamia was discovered in the 1890s, and some of the most important archaeological digs in China were made after the late 1970s.

    Extractions: (Redirected from Ancient civilization Ancient history is the study of significant cultural and political events from the beginning of human history until the Early Middle Ages . Although the ending date is largely arbitrary, most Western scholars use the fall of the Western Roman Empire in AD as the traditional end of ancient history. Another term that is often used to refer to ancient history is antiquity , although this term is most often used to refer specifically to the civilizations of Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome The span of recorded history is roughly 5,000-5,500 years, with Sumerian cuneiform being the oldest form of writing discovered so far. Genetic evidence, however, points to the first appearance of human beings about 150,000 years ago . There is also a growing body of evidence that Homo sapiens first left Africa about 60,000 years ago Chronology ... edit The fundamental difficulty of studying ancient history is the fact that only a fraction of it has been documented, and only a fraction of those recorded histories have survived into the present day. Literacy was not widespread in any culture until long after the end of ancient history, so there were few people capable of writing histories. Even those written histories which were produced were not widely distributed; the ancients, not having the luxury of a

    Extractions: The ancient civilizations of the Americas were far ahead of the rest of the world when it came to farming. Because of their knowledge and skill in planting, hybridizing, irrigating and caring for food crops, they were able to develop cities long before Europeans did. Although most students learn more about Egypt, Greece and Rome than they do about Native America, if you travel to the ancient metropolis of Teotihuacan (or Chichen Itza, Uxmal, Tumal, or hundreds of others) in Mexico, Guatamala and Belize; or to ancient places in South America like Machu Pichu in Peru, you may be amazed that so little attention is given to these wonders in most school books.
