History
1 answer:
sergejj [24]3 years ago
7 0

Spain did not immediately realize that the New World was in fact a new continent. Columbus himself died without ever knowing that the land he had arrived to was not India.

However, when Spain realized that this land was completely undiscovered, they decided to explore it. This was motivated by several reasons. On the one hand, they were curious to see what the territory was like. On the other hand, they were also motivated by the possibility of owning such a vast territory and the resources located in it. Finally, they were motivated by the idea of turning the Native American people they encountered into Christians, thus achieving their salvation.

I need 30 facts about the old stone age
trapecia [35]
Our ancestor, modern man Homo sapiens emerged around 200,000 years ago.

Homo habilis, an early human who evolved around 2.3 million years ago, was probably the first to make stone tools.

Neanderthals died out around 30,000 years ago.

Flint was commonly used for making stone tools but other stones such as chert and obsidian were also used.

The Stone Age is divided into three periods; the Palaeolithic (old Stone Age), Mesolithic (middle Stone Age) and the Neolithic (new Stone Age).

Palaeolithic and Mesolithic people were nomadic hunter gatherers.

They moved frequently following the animals that they hunted and gathering fruits and berries when they could.

The dog was the first animal to be domesticated.

This happened during the Mesolithic period.

Dogs could help with the hunt, warn of danger and provide warmth and comfort.

The gradual development of agriculture and the domestication of animals during the Neolithic period meant that people could live in settled communities.

Some isolated tribespeople were still effectively living in the Stone Age as recently as the twentieth century.

The houses in Skara Brae, a Neolithic Orkney village, had beds, cupboards, dressers, shelves and chairs.
