How Do We Measure Time? • Time, as we usually use it, is measured in years BC and AD. • BC (Before Christ) counts the years before the Birth of Jesus. • AD (Anno Domini) counts the years after the birth of Jesus. • Now in History we usually use the term BCE (before Common Era) instead of BC and CE (common Era) instead of AD. Timeline example The Birth of Jesus-on Year 1 CE, or A.D. …3 BCE 2 BCE 1 BCE 1 CE 2 CE 3 CE….. Practice How many years ago was 8000 BCE? How many years ago was 5000 BCE How many years ago was 30 BCE How many years ago was 2500 CE? How many years ago was 2000 CE? Which came first, 1000 BCE or 1100 BCE? Which came first, 500 CE or 500 BCE? Which came first, 20 BCE or 20 CE? Civilization Foldable Notetaking! • We will be creating a foldable time with which to take notes. • Hot dog fold • 2nd hot Dog Fold • Mark of five equal sections (about 1 ¾ in.) with a pencil • Draw a timeline arrow across the length of the foldable, and label it according to the diagram on the next slide. Example Catal Huyuk Mesopotamia 7000 BCE 3500 BCE cut Egypt Indus River Yellow River 3000 BCE cut 2500 BCE cut 2000 BCE cut After copying the writing, use your scissors to cut each line, being careful to NOT CUT THROUGH THE BACK PIECE, this way the timeline will stay together. Use pull out tab for notes •notes •Notes •Notes •Notes •Notes •Notes •Notes And Pull up for Map and Pictures Civilization • Surplus (Have more than enough) • Specialization-(different people have different jobs) • Social hierarchy (Some people are more important than others) • Writing-cuneiform(Mesopotamia) Recording data Writing laws Make contracts, treaties Taxes, census Write down religious texts philosophy, literature • “The Other” Barbarians Hunter gatherers Nomadic peoples • Negative impacts Lack of equality Environmental impact B. Catal Huyuk •Southern Turkey •Founded in 7000 BCE •Covered 32 acres •Mud brick •Religious imagerymale hunters and mother goddesses •Toolmakers and jewelers •Forerunner of the first civilization, in nearby fertile crescent C. Tigris-Euphrates Civilization 3500 BCE Cuneform Called Mesopotamia Used bronze and copper Pottery Invented the wheel Irrigation from rivers nearby Region invaded by Sumerians, who brought cuneiform Statues and frescoes of gods and goddesses Science, astronomy 10, 60, 360-we still use for calculating circles and time. Religious shrines-ziggurats City states Divine authority of kings Invasion of Babylon-Hammurabi Succeeded by the Assyrians and then the Persians. D. Egypt •Nile river •3000 BCE •Stayed unified due to its being less open to invasion •Pharaoh-God king •Government directed economy •No independent business class like Mesopotamia •Irrigation from the Nile •Pyramids (from 2700 BCE) •Some interaction with the Kingdom of Kush •Art, mathematics(24 hour day) •Egypt heavily influenced Mediterranean cultures E. Indus river valley • 2500 BCE-Indus river in India • Large cities of Harappa and Mohenjo Daro • Running water • Trade contacts with Mesopotamia • Distinct alphabet and art • Jewelry and metal working-use of Bronze Yellow river •(Huanghe) in china •Considerable isolation •Some overland trading with india •Godlike kings of myth-P’an Ku •By 2000 BCE, they had advanced technology •Riding horses •Skilled pottery •1000 BCE they had iron •Ideographic symbols on bone •Science and astronomy arose early on •Music develops early according to oral legend •Simple mud houses •Shang dynasty(1500 BCE) created massive tombs and palaces Time Quiz How many years ago was 1000 BCE?
