One Spanish official remarked that “the maxim of the conqueror must be to settle.” Explain what you think he meant by this statement. Illustrate the various ways conquerors settled the New World, commenting on what worked, what did not work, and the consequences of those methods

The art piece first presents itself as a still life, multiple objects such as a lemon, couple of glasses filled with different colored

It is made of stacked geometric shapes, which are outlined in primary colors. The Celtic animal-interlace style is used to create ornate designs within the outlined shapes. There are two crosses on either side of the arch; emerging from these crosses are two slender, tube like shapes outlined in dark green and filled with a pattern that resembles snakeskin; they bend in to form the actual arch and merge into two serpent heads. At the very top of the arch the tongues of the two serpents become intermingled and form a Celtic knot.

These were found while excavating a cluster of rooms which is how they dated them, by dating the rooms you can assume these cylinders came from about the same time. The function of these “petrified turds” is what intrigued Kamp the most. She was so interested she set out an experiment to test what the function of it was. Kamp’s first idea was that some possible functions might be “weights, tools for removing kernels from dried corn, tokens for relay races, plaster smoothers, abraders for working wood or sandstone, toys, phallic symbols, or tools for thinning ceramic vessels”. To test her hypothesis she designed an experiment in which she would replicate some cylinders and then use those cylinders on four different tasks she believed could be what they were used for. After six hours of working with the cylinders, she looked under a microscope to compare her cylinders to the ones found at the village. She found that the cylinders likely function was to work ceramics before they were to be fired. The cultural meaning of these tools were just that, they were used as tools to help create the wonderful pieces of pottery that were found at the

Francis Fukuyama; political scientist, economist, and author, in his article “The End of History?” discusses he rise and fall of major ideologies such as absolutism, fascism and communism, and suggests that human history should be viewed in terms of a battle of ideologies which has reached its end in the universalization of Western liberal democracy. Fukuyama concludes that the idea of Western liberal democracy has triumphed in the world through a variety of different ways and is a thriving piece of world order today. However, there are certain flaws to his argument including a US- centric view on the events of the twentieth century.

In May 2008, the Bee Kingdom was select to design glass work for Pilchuck. There, they glass was select as a centerpiece because of the design, color scheme, and sense of energy and celebration to the centerpiece. When I first saw the centerpiece, it took my breath away. I was just amaze on how it was something different such the shape of the object. Each center piece had a different shape, rather tall or short or how oval or ride the object is. The color scheme was different for each center piece, rather it had strips or it was one simple color. What each centerpiece have in common are the bottom pieces. These centerpiece are some huge piece and I know it takes a lot of process to go with each one because they are unique pieces. The object

It was a huge display that looked like a cloth stand with fabrics hanging off. But when I looked closer, I realized that this work was made out of different types of metals such as lead, and steel. Pinheiro also modified hoses to make it more colourful, and she placed a pair of gloves in front of the work to create a sense of boundary. It is admirable how Pinheiro explored different kind of materials to create art, and how she was able to make such supple visual effects with rigid materials.

Unfortunately, I missed the opportunity to participate in the group discussion in person on the day we were on campus. I have since emailed both particpants in my group, Anna Guzman and Tara Rhodes, who both responded promptly that everyone was submitting short answers to the questions in our discussion group, to compare and analyze. I have since compared and reviewed their answers with mine and we have similar opinions on Shackleton’s leadership traits, the meaning of the great achievement of failure to us all seemed to be that his greatest achievement was successfully keeping his team of men alive for two years.

Second, the article posits that cooper cylinders inside the jars look exactly like copper cylinders discovered which it was for holding the scroll of sacred texts. However,

pletely symmetrical, its outer form being a large circle and nearing the center that circle is repeated at the neck and lip of the jar. Looking into the jar from above you see a dark hole due to its closed off form hiding most light from the inside. Inside you also see the red color of the jar meaning that it form was created using red clay soil, a popular building material at the time due to it being indigenous to the region.

At least 100 small objects were found around the place where the Roman Empire used to influence in which remain unexplained until today. There are these things called “dodecahedrons” which named after their shapes. Each one is a hollow bronze stone with 12 flat varied-sized pentagonal faces and holes, and its diameter is around 4–12 centimeters. There are also little handles stuck out from each corner. Though the Romans are usually known in keeping written records about everything, there is nothing found about these objects at

The colors used in the enamel are light blue as its main background that symbolizes the sky, dark blue, yellow, dark green, light green, red and white. Every shape has a thin golden outline, which explains the unique and non-industrialized manufacturing process. The fluid patterns seem to be filling up the space in a non systematic nor a symmetrical way to reflect the natural behaviors of the plants. There are no composition or main point of focus. Thus, the patterns are there to create the surface rather than to illustrate a story. The empty areas such as the legs of the tripod are filled with curved vine patterns. The curling vines overlap each other, creating a sense of dimension and space on a flat surface. The leaf texture and lines make the vines recognizable. Moreover, the absence of the leaf on the middle section of the lid shows that the curls on the lid are clouds intertwining with smaller dragons that are hidden. This style reminisces the art of Zhou where interlacing animals formed intricate patterns. Coincidentally, this is where the smoke or the cloud of the incense will flow through. This censer portrays the commonly displayed theme of journey to heaven, as it is embodied by the elements of the plants on Earth and the clouds from heaven. The use of Leiwen patterns in the vines and clouds throughout the object helps unify the different
