How early did a medieval blacksmith get up?

Daylight dominated the schedules of people in the middle ages. Daylight was the only really bright light available, so people, including blacksmiths and other craftsman, tended to rise early, eat a light breakfast, and get to the work of the day as soon as there was adequate light. Work days were longer in Summer than in Winter, as there was more available light. Work days ended when the sun went down, and medieval people would likely spend the dark hours indoors, lighting their dwellings with firelight. Candles and lamps were known, but candles were expensive and dim unless used in large numbers.

What does word civilization mean?

Civilization comes from the Latin word for city. Civilization is the process whereby people settle in towns and cities. This is only possible by the development of grain farming, where the labour of one farmer can feed many many people. The people who are fed by the farmer's labour do not need to work at producing food, and can live in permanent settlements and become artisans, political leaders, merchants and priests.

If it takes 7 people 8 days to dig a ditch how many people would it take to dig the ditch in 12 day If it takes 7 people 8 days to dig a ditch how many people would it take to dig the ditch in 12 day?

To find out how many people are needed to dig the ditch in 12 days, we first calculate the total work needed in terms of person-days. The total work is 7 people × 8 days = 56 person-days. If the ditch needs to be dug in 12 days, we divide the total work by the number of days: 56 person-days ÷ 12 days = approximately 4.67 people. Since you can't have a fraction of a person, you would need at least 5 people to complete the work in 12 days.


If it takes 7 people to dig a ditch in 8 days how many people would it take to dig a ditch in a half of a day?

To find out how many people it would take to dig the ditch in half a day, we first calculate the total amount of work in "person-days." If 7 people can complete the work in 8 days, that amounts to 7 people × 8 days = 56 person-days. To complete the work in half a day, you would need 56 person-days ÷ 0.5 days = 112 people. Therefore, it would take 112 people to dig the ditch in half a day.
