Who were the Aryans,and where did they live before entering the Indus River Valley? Describe how far their culture spread.

Answers

Answer:

The Indus Valley Civilization declined around 1800 BCE, and scholars debate which factors resulted in the civilization's demise. One theory suggested that a nomadic, Indo-European tribe called the Aryans invaded and conquered the Indus Valley Civilization, though more recent evidence tends to contradict this claim.

Explanation:

Not sure if this is right luv...pretty sure it is correct <3

Answer:

Aryans: A nomadic, Indo-European tribe called the Aryans suddenly overwhelmed and conquered the Indus Valley Civilization. The great Indus Valley Civilization, located in modern-day India and Pakistan, began to decline around 1800 BCE. The civilization eventually disappeared along with its two great cities, Mohenjo-daro and Harappa.

Question:

One reason Christian Crusaders lost the Holy Land was that

a. they didn’t have the support of the Eastern Orthodox Church.

b. they didn’t understand the reason for the conflict.

c. they lacked support from kings and nobles.

d. they traveled long distances to the battles.

Answer:

D.)they traveled long distances to the battles.

Explanation:

The Crusades were a series of religious wars between Christians and Muslims started primarily to secure control of holy sites considered sacred by both groups. In all, eight major Crusade expeditions occurred between 1096 and 1291. The bloody, violent and often ruthless conflicts propelled the status of European Christians, making them major players in the fight for land in the Middle East. By the end of the 11th century, Western Europe had emerged as a significant power in its own right, though it still lagged behind other Mediterranean civilizations, such as that of the Byzantine Empire (formerly the eastern half of the Roman Empire) and the Islamic Empire of the Middle East and North Africa.

Banpo was an ancient village along the Yellow River where people lived between 4500 and 3750 B.C.E. It is a great example of how the ancient Chinese adapted their lifestyle to live along the river. It had 45 houses that had floors that were dug into the ground to make them more safe. There were also caves under the ground to store food. There was a trench around the village to protect it from enemies. The trench also kept animals from wandering away and helped to drain water. The people of Banpo had advanced engineering techniques for living comfortably near the water.

The small villages and farming communities along the Yellow River grew into larger cities with a single government. The first of these governments was the Xia Dynasty. This dynasty lasted between 2070 and 1600 B.C.E.

According to legend, the Xia Dynasty was started by a man called Yu the Great. Yu worked for 13 years to control the flooding of the Yellow River, which ruined the crops of farmers. He wanted to do this job so badly that it is said he did not go home for 13 years while he worked on the project. According to the story, he developed irrigation systems along the Yellow River like canals and dams. Canals helped bring water to crops.

This story of the first great leader of China shows how important the Yellow River was to the early people. The leader is remembered for controlling the river and helping farmers use its waters.

Yu began the practice of a son following his father as king. This is known as “hereditary succession.”

How did the people of the Yellow River Valley adapt to the constant flooding?


SELECT AN ANSWER


They learned to build dams and canals, channeling the water to help them.



They lived on boats, so that when the river flooded, their homes would float.



They did not adapt to the flooding and were destroyed.



They would migrate inland during flooding times, then return after it was safe.

Answers

1. speed is calculated when you divide distance by time. velocity is determined when you divide displacement (delta x) by the change in time (delta t)

2. instantaneous is when something is done instantly and top speed is the fastest speed that something can move. this relates to acceleration because you can use both concepts to figure out the acceleration of something. to calculate acceleration you would use final velocity - starting velocity divided by time.
