Part 2:
The ways of the ancient Greek and Roman cultures have influenced the way we do things today in so many ways. Citizens of this time had many rights and responsibilities, they could vote and express their feelings on important matters and had other rights that no government could take away. This has influenced our society's way of public rights and equality in decision making. These ancient cultures also had some of the same laws as we do today, everyone has a right to share their side. I was happy to learn that this was in place even at this time in history.
When studying the medical and agricultural advancements of these ancient civilizations it is fascinating to see how ahead of their time they were. Their confidentiality agreement is still used today, along with the promise of keeping the patients best interest in mind a priority. We also still use their soil enrichment techniques in our modern agricultural practices. Along with their conservation of water idea.
Another advancement of this time was their astronomical practices. Their study of the stars and solar system has helped us understand it better, along with our technology.
This study has shown us how advanced this ancient culture was, in both technology and recourses. Theses two civilizations have greatly impacted the way we live our lives today. And I think we will still keep rediscovering new ways of doing things that were present at this time.
Does this help? I love feedback so please tell me what you think. Thanks. (;
