Due to an unforeseen exposure to toxins. a group of sexually reproducing organisms in a Petri dish suffered a population collapse down to five or six thousand individuals. These survivors formed a few hundred separate clumps. This population grew and slowly recovered over roughly the next twenty-three hundred (plus) generations. At that point this population had already increased to about four million individuals. Then, despite an occasional cooling trend, an upward trend in ambient temperature coincided with an increase in rates of reproduction.

1 🔗“Bible has nothing to do with western civilisation, profesore please go back to the Greek philosophers” Factually wrong. History exists whether you approve of it or not. The Western Tradition is a braid of Athens and Jerusalem and this is a fact not under my control. Save your feelings about a book you’ve never read for a more appreciative audience.

SOUTH CAROLINA COLLEGE AND THE ORIGINS OF SECESSION In 1856, one member of the South Carolina state legislature, whose proposals for the reform of primary and secondary school education had been thwarted by a voting bloc of alumni, stated bluntly: The College–the S.C. College–governs the state. Its Trustees are the Governor–the Judges–the Chancellors –the president of the Senate–the Speaker of the House–the Chairmen of certain Committees–distinguished and ex-distinguished personages of the land.

Big History Lessons: An Overview This work will draw on all three of these waves of discourse regarding human events. The second and third wave are critically important for showing how natural and social processes and interactions have conditioned the development of human history on a global scale, and how such processes form a sort of matrix within which humans must operate. Central to this has been an appreciation of the importance of science and scientific knowledge in the realm of historical development.

The division of labor in society is not a late development, it is built into the biology of human reproduction: women bear children and men do not. With regard to the social necessity of continuous reproduction, women are more valuable than men. If a war or natural disaster were to kill off half the men of a population, rates of reproduction would be little changed; if half the women were lost, reproduction would fall by half.

Prologue On the Earth- Where Are We? Maps, Mercator Illusion, Creative Disorientation The condition of not knowing where you are is called being lost. Our maps of the world, the ideas within which we live our lives, are defective. The vast majority of the world’s literate people, when asked what thisimage is: Mercator Map https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_map_projections GET ALL THE RELEVANT MAPS HERE (SEE BELOW) Will answer “the world”. Regrettably, it is a map, not the world, and like any map it necessarily contains built in omissions and distortions.

Where do we come from? What are we? Where are we going? -Gauguin ​ Michael Sugrue ​ Draft Not For Publication or Citation …all mankind is of one author, and is one volume… –John Donne For as the one ship that held them all; though it was put together of all contrasting things – oak, and maple, and pine wood; and pitch and hemp – yet all these ran into each other and in the one concrete hull, which shot on its way, both balanced and directed by the long central keel; even so, all the individualities of the crew, this man’s valor and that man’s fear; guilt and guiltiness, all varieties were welded into oneness… –Herman Melville

In many ways, the ancient history of China is sui generis among Old World civilizations. Unlike the Tigris-Euphrates, the Nile and the Indus, the Chinese civilization that developed first in the Yellow River valley and later in the Yangtze river valley emerged during the of the third millennium BC had little early contact with the other ancient civilizations. The Neolithic history of early China starts about 6000BC, producing petroglyphs that have been interpreted as proto-writing.
