During the Renaissance, which spanned roughly from the 14th to the 17th century, Europeans rediscovered and sought to integrate knowledge from ancient Greek and Roman texts. This revival was facilitated by the fall of Constantinople in 1453, which led to an influx of Greek scholars into Italy, bringing with them classical manuscripts. The invention of the printing press also played a crucial role, making these texts more accessible. This period marked a significant shift towards Humanism, emphasizing the value of individual knowledge and the study of classical antiquity.
In relatively recent discoveries, as time goes, We have uncovered evidence that that the wheel was used millennia ago, perhaps millions of years, having found wheels encased in ancient stone (granite and coal) deposits from earlier ages. A much larger question begs for study of the Antikytherian Mechanism discovered among shipwrecks in Ancient Grecian waters. This device employed not only complex gearing ( essential spoked wheels and axels), but implies in its nature a understanding of time (and its passage) and it's relation to a detailed and accurate knowledge of the cosmos and the movement of celestial bodies.
If you mean Cicero, he was a famous Roman figure because he achieved political status that few men could in the time that he lived. Cicero was not of the patrician class of Rome. He was what they called a "new man" in that his family never held a consulship or political office before him. He had a talent as an orator and was one of Rome's greatest. Through his oratory as a lawyer he gained fame and was eventually elected consul. During his consulship, he uncovered a plot to overthrow the government called the conspiracy of Cataline. He punished the offenders (illegally) and was proclaimed "pater patria" or father of his country. Many of his writings and letters have come down to us thanks to his freedman, Tiro, who saved them and had them published.If you mean Cicero, he was a famous Roman figure because he achieved political status that few men could in the time that he lived.

Yes, since the head of a circumcised penis is no longer covered by the foreskin, it remains constantly exposed and slowly becomes desensitized over time. Because of this, the man requires more stimulation to reach orgasm, which he accomplishes by pounding the vagina with hard, fast thrusts.When an uncircumcised man thrusts in and out of a woman's vagina, his foreskin naturally glides up and down on the head of the penis. On the inward stroke of the thrust as the man slides his penis into the woman's vagina, the foreskin glides back over the head, and as the head advances deeper into the vagina, it slides out from under the foreskin completely and then rubs directly against the soft, moist vaginal walls. On the outward stroke, the penis head slides back inside the foreskin. As the man thrusts in and out, his penis head is repeatedly being covered and uncovered by the foreskin, and the head contacts both the inner foreskin and the vagina. The foreskin itself is also being directly stimulated by the vaginal walls, and the interaction between the vagina, foreskin, and penis head produces intensely pleasurable sensations for the man. Because of the sensitivity of the penis head and all the stimulation provided by the interactions of the vagina, foreskin, and penis head, an uncircumcised man can use more slow and deliberate thrusts, being able to focus on pleasuring his partner instead of his need to work to achieve orgasm.Some women prefer the hard, fast, and vigorous technique common among circumcised men, while some other women prefer to slow, gentle, deliberate style of love-making most commonly seen among uncircumcised men.
1st Answer:Until modern times it was considered improper for a woman to show her legs or ankles. The only women who showed their bodies were the prostitutes who worked the streets. Doctors couldn't look at a woman's body undressed.2nd Answer:Medieval women wore long dresses partly because it was the fashion; during some parts of the Middle Ages, long dresses had trains that dragged on the floors. We see pictures of these dresses often in medieval pictures of wealthy women. Of course the pictures also show very clean tile floors.In many places they also needed long dresses to keep warm because the methods used at the time for heating were very primitive.The idea that medieval women wore long dresses out of modesty is probably incorrect, for at least part of the time. I went to a related question (linked below) to look at medieval dresses at the source links it has. One piece of Anglo Saxon artwork I came across portrays the Virgin Mary standing in a medieval dress short enough that her feet and ankles were clearly visible. While most of the rest of the artwork does not show women's feet and ankles, several pieces do. An article on the Black Death (linked below) has a contemporary picture of a plague scene used as a Bible illustration; in it, a doctor is tending two plague victims, whose bodies are largely uncovered, the woman from the waste up, the man from thighs down. According to an article on the history of nudity (linked below) medieval people were baptised by immersion nude until the beginning of the 8th century, about a quarter of the way through the Middle Ages. I have seen a number of pictures of men and women bathing together in medieval bath houses, which seem to have been common enough that even some larger villages had them. I came across one medieval picture of the Virgin Mary bathing, in which her body was fully visible from the waiste up. And I see from articles on medieval attitudes that people swam, and were nearly always naked when they did so until the 17th century.
It was crisis of political instability. There were conspiracies against emperor Commodus, who was described as a coward and more interested in sport than politics, followed by struggles between five men who wanted to usurp the title of emperor. The crisis saw the end of the Nervan-Antonine dynasty and the beginning of the Severan dynasty. The establishment of the new dynasty ended this period of political instability. On the death Of Marcus Aurelius in 180, his son Commodus succeeded him. His sister Lucilla arranged a conspiracy against him. The assassination was bungled. Commodus' treasurer was murdered in a second conspiracy. There was unrest in Gaul and Germany caused by army deserters and an army revolt in Brittany. A plot by one of the deserters to assassinate Commodus was betrayed. Another plot was uncovered and foiled in the same year. Cleander, the new treasurer, deposed the praetorian prefect (the commander of the praetorian guard, the bodyguards of the emperor) and sold public offices to strengthen his political position with the intent of becoming more powerful than the emperor. However, he was executed following a riot against him. After this, Commodus decided to take charge of his government, but he was murdered in the following year. This was followed by the year of the five emperors, where five usurpers claimed the title of emperor. Pertinax was proclaimed emperor by the praetorian guards, but was murdered by them, apparently because he gave them only half of the pay off for making him emperor. Then Didius Julianus outbid a rival in paying off the soldiers and was proclaimed emperor. A demonstration broke out and people called for Prescennius Niger, governor of Syria, to become emperor. He was proclaimed emperor by the eastern legions. However, Septimius Severus marched on Rome and took over. He was challenged by Clodius Albinus who was proclaimed emperor by the legions of Britannia and Hispania. He crossed into Gaul with his troop and defeated Septimius Severus' general in Gaul. He established his headquarters in Lyon, but was defeated there in a large battle by Septimius Severus, who then managed to consolidate his power and start a new dynasty.

Renaissance scholars investigated the civilizations around the northern Mediterranean, especially the Greeks and the Romans.
Renaissance means "rebirth." It typically refers to the peoples of Europe that wanted to recover lost information from Greece and Rome. They were civilizations that learned very advanced techniques for their times and eventually died out. The people living in the Middle East retained these technologies and, when the crusades were carried out, the Europeans uncovered these secrets. This inspired a cultural movement to look back to the Greeks and Romans to recover technology. Hope that helps! :)

In "Meno," Socrates demonstrated that knowledge is innate and can be uncovered through a process of questioning and dialogue. He used the example of the slave boy to show that knowledge is not taught but rather recollected from within.
I must get this rare artifact out of the country quickly!
