Monday

Notes from LO1:
The life of the basic European barbarian mainly consisted of farming. Farming and villages had spread throughout the continent and most villages were established. There were some wealthy people and the hierarchy of society was pretty much established. After the greeks recovered from the dark ages, they met many different civilizations. They learned how to use Iron tools and coinage and met civilizations like Babylon and Egypt and they learned of architechture from Egypt and in Babylon they figured out how to figure out the "will of the gods" by animal organs. The greeks went through all these different nations figuring out things and brought them back to their country. Sparta and Athens were extremely different because Athens was all commerce and near the sea, and its chief strength was its navy. Sparta was closed off and agricultural, and its chief strength was its army.
