Cuneiform

yes the Sumerians writing was called cuneiform.

The correct Chimneys that needs to be on to open the second door in IRONWORKS are SNAKE, BIRD, and BEETLE. This should be the correct code unless you do it on your account and it gives you a completely different code.

Jean Francois Champollion deciphered the Rosetta Stone by creating an alphabet based on the Greek and the hieroglyphs he recognized. He was able to decipher Ptolemy's name quickly because he had recently seen it on a obelisk. Once he had the names deciphered he was able to create an alphabet and decipher the rest.

A simile is a figure of speech that indirectly compares two different things by employing the words "like", "as", or "than". Even though both similes and metaphors are forms of comparison, similes indirectly compare the two ideas and allow them to remain distinct in spite of their similarities, whereas metaphors compare two things directly. For instance, a simile that compares a person with a bullet would go as follows: "Chris was a record-setting runner as fast as a speeding bullet." A metaphor might read something like, "When Chris ran, he was a speeding bullet racing along the track."

Look for an AP story in your newspaper; it will evidence the style.

I think it was because it was to short

Yes

Chinese characters are logographic (representing ideas instead of sounds) whereas hieroglyphic symbols represent consonants as well as general concepts (called determiners). Furthermore, Chinese characters are "stylized" and for the most part do not look like their original pictures, whereas hieroglyphics retained the clear shapes of the images they originally represented. Cuneiform characters represent the sounds of syllables only and are similar to Japanese kana.

A "Westernized" society. High tech, no sweat shops, starvation, and a solid non-dictorial government.

No. The Rosetta Stone allowed scholars to understand Egyptian Hieroglyphics.

For Christians, the origin of Easter is simply the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ about 2,000 years ago. According to the Gospel accounts, Jesus Christ, the true Messiah promised in the Old Testament, was crucified and resurrected at the time of the Jewish Passover. Since that awesome event took place, those who believe Christ is their Messiah have honored that day and often celebrated it with the traditional Passover.

The left-to-right orientation of English stems from Greek, which chose this orientation after developing the alphabet from the Phoenicians.

Persian policy of tolerance is acceptance of the people the Persians conquered.

Therefore it grew so much because it did not matter if they conquered or not, it wasn't going to change the people's lifestyle in any way. They respected the customs of the diverse groups in their empire.

EXAMPLE: the culture they conquered would not have to change their religious views.

Until a little after three.

All numbers are read in order of most significant digit to least significant digit.

Binary digits are read right to left the same way numbers increase from right to left (our system of base 10). Numbers do not increase the same way we read (left to right). This is the same way we add, multiply and subtract in math. We start from the numbers on the right and move left if you prefer to think of it that way.

With our usual system of base 10 numbers, each digit starts from "ones", then "tens", "hundreds" and so on moving from right to left. The same is with binary except that binary is only base 2. A 1 in the first position = 2^0 = 1. A 1 in the second position = 2^1 = 2 where each "one" is added for the final value. See below for examples.

Our base 10 system goes one more step by mulitplying each number as you go, expanding on the zeros and ones to zeros through nines:

5062 = 2*(10^0)+6*(10^1)+0*(10^2)+5*(10^3) = 5062

For a binary example, if there are 8 bits in a byte, we get the following possibilities:

00000000 = 0

00000001 = (2^0) = 1

00000010 = (2^1) = 2

00000011 = (2^0)+(2^1) = 3

and so on and so forth...

10101011 = (2^0)+(2^1) +(2^3)+(2^5)+(2^7)

= 1+2+8+32+126 = 171

and finally

11111111 = the sum of 2^n where n stands for the numbers 0 -> 7

= (2^0)+(2^1) +(2^3)+(2^4)+(2^5)+(2^6)+(2^7)+(2^8)

= 255

ziggurate did I'm a just guess it ziggarate

They represent syllables or words.

Cuneiform was written small to conserve space on the clay tablets, allowing for more information to be recorded. The small size also made it easier to handle and store the tablets.

Sumerians

The exact year cannot be determined. Cuneiform was developed by the ancient Sumerians of Mesopotamia c. 3500-3000 BC.. It gradually evolved from a rather simple "bookkeeping" notation based on loose clay "tokens" used in business trade over a period of several generations to a full writing system on clay tablets.
