What civilization worked on a flood cycle?

The ancient Mesopotamian civilization, particularly the Sumerians, developed their society around the flood cycles of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. They relied on the seasonal flooding to irrigate their crops, leading to agricultural abundance. This understanding of flood cycles was crucial for their farming practices, urban planning, and overall societal organization. Their sophisticated irrigation systems and agricultural techniques were developed in response to these natural cycles.


What are results of the crusades?

The biggest results were the introduction to Europe of literature, foods, knowledge, and goods from the east. This led to a boom in the trading business. Venice, being situated between Europe and the East, became a powerful and wealthy republic from this new trade.Trade and the important of finding faster and cheaper routes led to the Age of Discovery and, consequently, the discovery of America.This flood of new goods and information also led to a questioning of the Catholic Church. People felt that the church had withheld information about the world. This, in turn, helped bring about the Protestant Reformation.Note: There are comments associated with this question.

What were medieval guilds?

1st AnswerAn Association of individuals who share professional interests. Guilds were formed to protect members, set prices, and standardize quality. Notable guilds in the medieval ages are merchants guilds, the masons guild, and the often overlooked universities, which are a form of guilds. Guild members often wore certain colours and cuts of clothing to identify themselves. This is where the traditional gown worn in university graduation ceremonies comes from.2nd AnswerThe earliest medieval guilds may have begun with Roman guilds that survived into the Middle Ages. Among these were the masons' and glass makers' guilds. A document of Verona in the seventh century refers to a soap makers' guild in that city. Guilds provided protection from competition for members, regulated the crafts they represented, and provided a well defined path for new members to join. They also provided minimum standards for their trades, and in this way benefited their customers to some degree.The particulars of these things varied quite a lot. The usual path for new members was to go through a series of stages starting as apprentices. After apprenticeship, they were permitted to practice a trade independently as journeymen, but were not considered masters. A masterwork, submitted to the guild and accepted, earned them the title of master and full guild membership. This was the usual path, but there were others, including being born into or purchasing memberships in some guilds, notably as merchants.Guilds banded together, especially when they were in the same town. Towns and cities of guilds also banded together for mutual support, and the greatest such organization was the Hanseatic League, which had its own armed forces and rivaled nations.Guilds often controlled local economies. Sometimes groups of guilds controlled the politics of a town or city. This was true in some of the the Italian medieval communes, which were city states.


Where did serfs live in the Middle Ages?

Most serfs lived on manors. These were farming estates that belonged to lords, and whose residents were mostly serfs. The serfs typically lived in a village or hamlet on the manor, in cottages. Some serfs were not agricultural and worked as laborers. They typically lived in cottages in villages or boarding houses in towns.


Who started creationism?

Answer:God started it on day one of creation. Mankind has believed it from the beginning of creation, since man was there and a part of it. Adam and Eve know the story to be true. A more appropriate question would be "Who started the idea of evolution?" because that is a fairly new belief. You will not find any writings as old as the Bible that teach evolution. AnswerMost anthropologists agree that religiosity (and creationist stories) began sometime around 50,000-200,000 years ago, although it might have been quite a bit earlier but that is when the first good evidence for religion appears. Every culture since has attempted to explain their existence by invoking a different version of creationism. AnswerIf you are referring to the modern young earth creation movement, then the book, The Genesis Flood, by the late Dr Henry Morris and Dr John Whitcomb in 1961 was an important starting point. Dr Morris has been called the father of the modern creation movement.Creationism has existed in some form for around 6000 years, as per the records of Jewish and then Christian society. In its modern form, creationism sprung up around the same time as evolution, as a response to defend against what was seen as a threat to their faith. The people who developed both are either not known in the first case, or many and varied in the second.
