Location Of Tanis Research Paper

The purpose of this journal was to inform scholars and readers about the country of Egypt and its origins: the Ancient Egyption civilization and how it was built upon nature itself. The value of Hansen’s journal gives the perspective of a whole new world and geographical features. Egypt is surrounded by harsh unlivable climats, but the civilization was able to last over 500 years by using their geographical resources to their advantage to create faith, protection, and life as described by Kathy. Kathy has a PHD that she gained from Union University and is an associate publisher of Quintessential Careers. Despite the highly informative ideas, a limitation of the book is that it was written to describe Egyptian environmental aspects for readers to learn more about Egypt and maybe the desire to someday travel to Egypt. The book may have the perspective of a sort of travel guide showing a small bais while, trying to persuade people to travel to

The majority of ancient Egyptian structures studied by architectural historians and planners alike, were erected to honor a pharaoh or as a grand tomb for their journey through to the afterlife. Whether the structure was in the form of a temple, tomb or statue, the ritual and spiritual influence is unquestionable. The location, scale, and materials used to construct these monuments are all defining factors of how the space is used and functions.

A possible history of the site would include the initial settlement by Culture D. There is no evidence of any artificial structures. It is possible that they used biodegradable materials, meaning that evidence of their settlement decomposed. After Culture D abandoned the site. Culture C then settled the area. Assuming that Culture B built the temple, there is no evidence of structures. There is a trash pit, so it can be inferred that Culture C did live in the area. Because their artifacts were so close together, it is possible that Cultures C and B lived very close in time. It is possible that Culture C abandoned the site due to some kind of natural disaster or that they were pushed out by Culture B. As they settled the area, Culture B dug up the dirt in the process of building their temple. That dirt contained artifacts of Culture C. It is also possible that they found artifacts from Culture C during this process and found them significant enough to include them in their own burials. Once Culture B moved off the area, their remains were most likely buried until Culture A found the site. As their house was built directly on top of the temple, it is possible that Culture A used the remains of the temple to strengthen the foundation of their house. Because the area was settled so many times, the soil was dug up and churned many times, meaning that artifacts from each culture were spread throughout the various strata of the

Evidence of almost 100 of the stones has revealed without the need to excavate the site, due to remote sensing, ground-penetrating radar and geographical imaging technologies. These advancements in science and technology allow researchers to discover the historical monuments full extent. Fragments of bones, stones and the foundation pits in which they were situated have all been uncovered during excavations and technological mapping indicating the true size and importance the site was to the Neolithic

However, this isn’t Indiana Jones conducting archaeology properly, but rather the Nazi’s. When Indiana Jones came to the lost city of Tanis, the Nazi’s were having the Egyptian site excavated by hundreds of people. This site had to have been properly funded and to have used a survey strategy as they were very close to the location as a result of proper research and clues from the medallion. Their site featured camp sites, carts, and variety of digging tools. In the brief depiction of the site it looked like the Nazi’s used vertical excavation as they have dug a substantial way into the ground in order to try and recover the ark. In terms of tools I noticed they were only using shovels, and then using baskets to clean up the dirt. The one thing that I did notice that was not an accurate portrayal was how people were digging. They were digging with large shovels and digging out large scoops of dirt in the process. In reality, archaeologists tend to use smaller tools to look for artifacts and be much more precise with their digs. However, this may have been the case since they seemed to be only looking for the ark. A true archaeological dig would have paid attention to the small pieces of pottery and other small artifacts that would have been on site, looking to document the past rather to just find one piece of treasure. Lastly, the lost city of Tanis looks like it was a State based on the labor investment of the monument to keep the lost ark a

As part of “Dance Houston 2013”, the “Ndani” was performed on April sixth of the year two thousands and thirteen at the Wortham center. The dance executed by a group of eight young dancers, among which Otis Berry, was choreographed by Shaté Edwards. Miss Edwards has an engaged, skillful, and powerful style. Her background includes jazz, tap, stepping, modern and more. She is a Houston, Texas native, who attended college in Atlanta, Georgia, and has performed a lot in the U.S and China and has participated in numerous productions.

Göbekli Tepe is a very interesting archaeological site that is located at the top of the mountain limestone ridge in Southeastern Turkey near the Syrian border (Banning 620). It is known as the earliest monumental building, or temple, that mankind has ever created and it was built even before the stage of agriculture, which dates back to some 11,600 years ago (Mann 1st page). Göbekli Tepe belongs to the PPN (Pre-Pottery Neolithic) in terms of its chronological context in world prehistory (Banning 620). In fact, the site can be divided into three different stratigraphic levels that are level 3, level 2A, and level 2B (Banning 620). Level 3 is the oldest level which appears to date back to the Pre-Pottery Neolithic A (PPNA) (Banning 621). Each of the buildings measured 15 m by 10 m and contained T-shaped monoliths surrounded by a wall made of stone and mortar (Banning 621). Two U-stone shaped entrances could by identified in two of the buildings (Banning 621). However, the most monumental aspect of the Göbekli Tepe can be attributed to the sophisticated carvings of wild animals, such as scorpions and boars, on the pillars which appears in the pillars of level 3 and level 2A (Banning 621). Moreover, Level 2A, which dates to Middle PPNB, has smaller and more rectangular buildings than Level 3 and it contains delicately implemented tiled floors and T pillars without any decorations (Banning 621). Level 2B dates to the time between level 3 and level 2A, however,

Started out as a failing student with no burning desire to do any prodigious. Jasper, just like all the others, did not want to go through the trouble to lucubrate and improve himself. Until three years ago, in 2013 when he moved in with his uncle, Rick Lien, who was able to turn him from a scanty student to a straight A student over the course of two months changed his life forever. This alone was a huge improvement for Jasper, but that was not all. Rick taught Jasper about stocks and options to help him be more independent, although at first, Jasper showed no interest in the subject matter, but through personal experience after Jasper made his first successful trade, he

In the article “Mysteries of Egypt” Canadian Museum of History it is explained that mystery surrounds the Egyptian origins. The first civilization was along the Nile River which nourished the Pharaonic Kingdom. The Nile River attracted all sorts of life, like during the pre-dynastic times nomadic hunters grew crops. The first communal project was the building of irrigation canal. The Egyptians believed that the sun represented the eternal cycle of birth, Pharaohs were seen as gods and after death would become immortal and would join the gods. Funerary practices included mummification and the burial in tombs to help the dead find their way. The most impressive tombs are the pyramids they were also vary ambitious projects. And the largest

While the reason for the move is unknown; It is believed by some that the intricate structures were built to protect the people from hostile nomads. The structures are built high into the cliff sides and there is speculation as to how the Anasazi could build them and access them. Some of these dwellings had hundreds of rooms and multiple towers. The towers are placed strategically to see the plains beneath them leading researchers to believe that they were built for protection. The structures and artifacts discovered within them show signs of a developing culture and an organized system of

The major flew back to Japan, March 9th,1974. The fulfilled promise first issued in 1944. "Whatever happens,we'll come back for you." After this was said by Major Taniquchi, Onoda was properly relieved of his duty and he finally surrendered. Upon his surrender he turned over his Arisaka Type 99 rifle that was still in working condition along with the 500 rounds of ammo left.

What is most riveting however, is its age. Using organic material embedded in the façade of its stone pylons, Gobekli Tepe’s lower levels have been carbon to as early as 12,000 years ago, making them the earliest architectural forms ever discovered (German Archaeological Institute). This predates nearby sister site Nevali Cori by about 500 years (Author unknown), and the world’s first city Catalhoyuk by 1,500 years (Symmes 2010:48). The vast, more complex scale, as well as the marked artistry and sophistication above that of its cruder sister sites, makes the very existence of Gobekli Tepe practically an impossibility. Ian Hodder, director of Stanford’s archaeological program states that Gobekli Tepe is “unbelievably big and amazing, at a ridiculously early date; many people think it changes everything [that] all our theories are wrong.” (Symmes 2010:46 ).

If you were to be a victim in tsotsis life how would you see his actions? Now if you're simply seeing it from a stranger's point of view what would you do? Well I’ve come to the conclusion that Tsotsi should be charged with 10-15 years, tsotsi is mentally ill, but that doesn't give Tsotsi the right to do as he pleases, with his mental illness he will also get help in prison . Tsotsi is given the best gift which is freedom, with him having freedom he ruined lives. Tsotsi caused harm to his own friend Boston, he intimidates and uses his power to get others to do his dirty work, and lastly tsotsi uses an innocent baby for his own good.

In the deserts of Egypt lie the colossal remains of an ancient civilization. These enormous works of human endeavor are the only member of the Seven Ancient Wonders of the World that time has passed down to us. These are, of course, the great pyramids of ancient Egypt. But these imposing structures were not built to impress civilization millennia down the road. The pyramids in fact had a purpose to the ancient Egyptians. While they seem very simple in nature, as they are simply four-sided pyramids with square bases, they had a meaning for those that had them built. Even by today’s standards, the pyramids of ancient Egypt were an impressive feat of engineering, due to their enormous size, both in building materials and finished product.
