Bronze Age Flood Analysis

Women were an essential contribution towards expanding the West. Womens roles changed and during this time and there was a major shift in women power.

Women were unable to own land property. They were only allowed to own small personal possessions. Women were not allowed to voice their opinions about public issues. Men were the only ones who could participate in political events. Women were only permitted to participate in festivals, religious events, weddings, and funerals. Women were given free time in which they were permitted to go visit a female friend only for a short period of time. All females were also not permitted to watch the Olympic Games because the contestants did not wear cloths. Chariot Racing was the only event that women were allowed to compete in. However, this was very rare because they had to own a horse. The only way women were able to attain any sort of power is when they became the wife of a prominent man. Women were socially inferior to men.

The key similarities between the two waves of civilizations are important and were continued throughout history even further than the empires of the second wave. These similarities included slavery, treatment of women, and the patriarch and monarch rulers; these similarities were intertwined in both waves. Hierarchies of gender declared that women and men were not equal because “to be gendered as masculine or feminine defines the roles and behavior considered appropriate for men and women in every human community.” The hierarchy of gender led to the creation of patriarchy, the concept that women are lesser or subordinate to men in all aspects of life. This idea of patriarchy meant sons were valued more than daughters, men had more opportunities in society and with jobs, the opportunity to rule, and men were the heads of their households. However, this wasn’t true for every society, even in the first civilizations there were cities and groups of people living within some states that allowed women to do what they wanted to do out in society. The Egyptians were a good example of equality as women were legally viewed equal to men. They were able to own land and slaves, initiate divorce, and rarely they would reach the position of queen, the most famous being Hatshepsut. On the more extreme side, in ancient Mesopotamia, patriarchy took root quickly in the form of actual written law. The code of Hammurabi was created in 1750 B.C.E. creating very submissive laws for

Instead of Egyptians just hunting and gathering food in different locations, they began to settle down in places permanently. They began to build durable homes instead of temporary shelters. This caused places to become villages. Villages turned into towns. Towns

Women in second wave civilizations from China, Rome, and Greece around 600 BCE to 200 AC were treated very differently from each other and their male counterparts from this time, but they also shared some similarities. In this essay, I'll be exploring the differences from each other, and how women played a role in their civilizations during this time. Women in this time period don't have as many rights as they do today, but they still play a part in their civilizations/empires. So without further ado, let's see the similarities and differences between these civilizations.

Women’s role in Ancient Chinese civilisation was always vital to society due to their role in the family and during the Tang and Song dynasty significant changes occurred, changing Chinese women’s lives forever. While it is no secret women were inferior to men in the history of China, not many are aware of the major differences of the status of women from dynasty to dynasty. The Tang-Song dynasties ruled from 618AD to 1279 AD and many distinct differences between these two dynasties can be observed. Women’s role in these dynasties primarily included domestic duties, with the introduction of new roles to the female gender. Their role was very important to society as the woman of the family ran the household and as that was the most important

Women weren’t treated greatly at all; they had hardly any rights where as men had many that women had no say in. One rule that was truly unfair was that a man could order any women to do anything he wanted. Women could not get an education because Confucius thought women didn’t need it. All they needed to know was how to cook clean and look after kids. They basically had no rights or privileges; they didn’t even get choice on who they would be spending the rest of their life with. There were some strict rules regarding marriage. Firstly Women didn’t get a say in who the married because it was worked our by a family member of the spouse, they had to marry a guy who was at least a few years older than him and they had to know less than him,

Life of most people revolved around their work. Artisans worked in their workshops and sold their goods. Merchants walked all over the town with goods also trying to sell items. Peasants brought their farm animals in to sell as a

The Bronze Age started around 2300 BC in Europe and it consisted of the new found material of bronze. It was an important development in many cities during the time. Bronze was used for a multitude of items including weapons, chariot parts, tools, decorative objects, and ritual vessels. The bronze age eventually came to an end because of four major catastrophes that came around 1200 BC that help shape the first millennium. Climate change, migration, new technology, and administrative innovations was the origin of this change.

In the household, women are responsible for the caring of children and the chores such as cooking and cleaning. Men would take their anger out on them by physical abuse or by emotional abuse which is legal in this culture. As for the government, men occupied all political positions and passed laws that favored themselves like restricting the rights and freedom of women. Because of this, women were denied their human rights. They could not even walk out of the house themselves.

The purpose of this report is to geologically evaluate the potential hazards for flooding in Hazard City. This report will include a detailed historic and extrapolated Stream Gauge Data Worksheet, as well as a graph of the Discharge Frequency Curve expected on Clearwater River. The report will provide Hazard city with my scientific analysis, conclusions, and provide recommendations concerning potential flood damages.

Women enjoyed the right to divorce, not the men. And if marriage ended in a divorce, the dowry was refundable. Also, women were allowed to own land and were very often left alone to manage it while their husbands went off to barter at markets or went overseas to trade or raid.
