Latin grammar schools

Latin grammar schools were meant to prepare young men for leadership and higher learning. They were required if a person wanted to go on to university learning.

The first Latin grammar school was created in 1635 by the Puritans in Boston. The school was created out of concern over losing aging population and therefore creating a loss of leadership and education. The schools only taught boys and were focused on Greek and Latin with emphasis in the humanities. Boys coming out of these schools were considered well prepared for university. Harvard was created by the Puritans as well to be the university to match with their grammar schools.

what geographical features of the Fertile cresent helped civilization to grow and ideas to spread between cultures?​
Nikolay [14]

Explanation:

Known as the Cradle of Civilization, the Fertile Crescent is regarded as the birthplace of agriculture, urbanization, writing, trade, science, history and organized religion and was first populated c. 10,000 BCE when agriculture and the domestication of animals began in the region. By 9,000 BCE the cultivation of wild grains and cereals was wide-spread and, by 5000 BCE, irrigation of agricultural crops was fully developed. By 4500 BCE the cultivation of wool-bearing sheep was practiced widely.

The geography and climate of the region were conducive to agriculture and hunter-gatherer societies shifted to sedentary communities in the area as they were able to support themselves from the land. The climate was semi-arid but the humidity, and proximity of the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers (and, further south, the Nile), encouraged the cultivation of crops. Rural communities developed along with technological advances in agriculture and, once these were established, domestication of animals followed.
