Do You Want to Read this Document in Another Language? The History of Gardening: A Timeline "The history of the origin of human civilizations and agriculture is, of course, much older than the documentation in the form of pyramids, inscriptions and bas-reliefs or tombs can tell us. A close acquaintance with cultivated plants and with the multitude of types and their differentiation into geographical groups as well as their frequently sharp physiological isolation from each other compel us to refer the very origin of cultivated plants to such remote epochs, where periods of 5-10,000 years such as concern archeologists represent but a brief moment."

   http://www.umich.edu/~lowbrows/reflections/1999/lsimmons.2.html
   
   Extractions: Printed in Reflections: June, 1999. Hellenic astronomers added the missing 1/4 day to the Egyptian calendar by adding an extra (leap) day every four years, but most people ignored it. The calendar with a leap day was finally adopted by the Romans under Gaius Julius Caesar in 4 BC. Since then, the calendar has had one major modification, when Pope Gregory, in 1582, on the advice of astronomers, dropped the leap day in years that end in two zeros. The earliest history of humanity has no known dates. After writing began to be used, people started dating events, but these were usually in relation to other events that we can no longer date. The long histories of the Egyptian and the Chinese dynasties, however, provided fairly good year dates for those cultures back to 3000 BC. The Mayans recorded specific day dates that go back in time tens of thousands of years. Since many of the events dated in this system occurred before the most optimistic early date for humans in North America, it is assumed that these very early dates are for mythical events that were invented much later. Very early Chinese dates also are thought to have been late inventions. A strong candidate for the first real date in history, that is, the first specific day on which an event can be pinpointed as having occurred, is May 28, 585 BC. The event was a battle between the Medes and the Lydians that was suddenly called off when an eclipse of the Sun frightened both armies. This eclipse, supposed to have been forecast correctly by Thales (although at best he would have had the year right, not the date), could only have been the one observable in the Middle East on May 28, 585. No other solar eclipse would have been visible in that region for many years on either side of 585.

   Extractions: Crichton E M Miller traces the existence of the wheel cross from Palaeolithic and Neolithic hunter gatherers to stone age seafarers and megalith builders who used this instrument in combination with zodiacs, henges, pyramids and water clocks. Drawing on scientific, historical and archaeological information with appendices from leading scientists and researchers, the book follows the thread of the often tragic occult history of the real cross from its roots in ancient Shamanism through the burning of Alexandria and its rediscovery 500 years later by the Knights Templar, resulting in communication with the Amerindians before Columbus and eventual excommunication from the Roman Catholic Church. The book is filled with unique illustrations and photographs, references and includes all patent drawings to allow the reader to experiment and research with one of the most secret and forbidden historical and spiritual artefacts to be discovered in modern times.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/And_did_those_feet_in_ancient_time
    
    Extractions: And did those feet in ancient time is a poem by William Blake from the preface to his work Milton: a Poem ). Today it is best known as the hymn Jerusalem , with music written by C. Hubert H. Parry in , the most famous version of which is an orchestration written by Sir Edward Elgar in This is considered to be one of England 's most popular patriotic songs, often being used as an alternative anthem. It is variously associated (thereby holding a rather odd position) with English nationalism anti-modernism post-modernism socialist ideals, and Christianity Jerusalem is the official anthem of the British National Party and the British Women's Institute , and historically was used by the National Union of Suffrage Societies The text of the poem was inspired by the legend that Jesus , while still a young man, accompanied Joseph of Arimathea to Glastonbury . Blake's biographers tell us that he believed in this legend. However, the poem's theme or subtext is subject to much sharper debate, probably accounting for its popularity across the philosophical spectrum. One particular line from the poem, "Bring me my chariot of fire", apparently inspired the title of the film

    Extractions: "Jesus, while still a young man, accompanied Joseph of Arimathea to Cornwall on a visit to the tin mines of the area." I wonder if this was before or after He went to the New World.... I don't see why silliness was restored. Whose was that commentary that it needs to be in an encyclopedia? Some famous persons? Unlikely! The restored commentary was nothing but a childish prankish addition to the article. Arthur 21:55 Mar 27, 2003 (UTC) I took out some of the trivial wikifications, and left in the possibly obscure ones. 07:12, 6 Oct 2003 (UTC) edit It's a misconception -albeit a popular one- that Blake's poem is patriotic. The poem is a condemnation of the first industrialists who spoil the English countryside with their "dark satanic mills". The swords and arrows of the poem are being raised to save nature -God's work, according to Blake - from man's interventions and build an ideal society there, a new Jerusalem. Remember the fight is "mental", not physical, and not intended to subjugate other countries or expand England's territory. Utopic, yes, patriotic, I don't think so. Maybe it is perceived as such because it is always sung alongside "Rule Brittannia" and "Land of hope and glory", two VERY patriotic songs, during events like the last night of the Proms?

    Extractions: Nagorno-Karabagh (the historical name "Artsakh") occupies the eastern and the southeastern mountainous and foothills regions of the Caucasus Minor, composing the northeastern part of the Armenian plateau. It archly stretches from the mountains, surrounding from the east the basin of Lake Sevan, to the southeast, as far as the river Yeraskh (Araks). In different periods of the history primary sources called the land various names: Urtekhe-Urtekhini, Orkhistene, Artsakh, Tsavdek, Khachen, Karabagh. The first evidences of the ancient history of the land dates back to the Acheul period of the studying of the early palaeolith (500- 100 thousand years ago). These are the ancient tools and osteological materials, found in the caves of Vorvan-Azokh, Tsakhach, Unot, and Khoradzor. The maxilla of the Neanderthal man, discovered in Vorvan- Azokh, has a special significance for studying the anthropogenes process. The excavations of the settlements as well as burial places of the bronze and iron epochs (Stepanakert, Khodjaly, Krkjan, Amaras, Matagis, the valleys of Khachenaget and Ishkhanaget) evidence that the territory was the part of the area of the origin and functioning of the then Kuro-Arask culture, 4-3 millenium BC.
