The answer to this question is based on the person you ask.

Modern civilizations can be considered more “civilized” than ancient ones in the way that we are more advanced and have greater structures of organized government, writing, art, and architecture.

Ancient civilizations on the other hand can be considered more civilized in the fact that they had stronger social classes and specialized labor.

By what method of heat transfer does the sun's energy warm the planet?

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Radiation

Explanation: If you have stood in front of a fireplace or near a campfire, you have felt the heat transfer known as radiation. The side of your body nearest the fire warms, while your other side remains unaffected by the heat. Although you are surrounded by air, the air has nothing to do with this transfer of heat. Heat lamps, that keep food warm, work in the same way. Radiation is the transfer of heat energy through space by electromagnetic radiation.

Answer:

5. The Parthenon was built.

6. Streets were laid out in straight lines.

2. Stone tombs were built.

1. Stone walls protected villages.

4. Religious temples were built again.

3. Palaces were burned.

Explanation:

The text provides us with the timeline of the events in the history of Greek architecture. We learn these dates.

3000 BC – Greeks build villages and stone walls protecting it
1700 BC – Late bronze age, stone tombs, and bridges are built.
1100 BC – Thigs fell apart and palaces were burned.
850 BC – People rebuilt religious temples and things that were previously destroyed.
432 BC – Parthenon was built, as well as large buildings (gymnasiums and stoas).
300 BC – New architecture is built, such as theatres and streets in straight lines.

Years counted BC (before Christ) are going “other way around” – from the highest to the lowest, as they are counting toward 0, the year Jesus Christ was born.

Looking at the listed events above, we can sequence these events like this

5. The Parthenon was built.
6. Streets were laid out in straight lines.
2. Stone tombs were built.
1. Stone walls protected villages.
4. Religious temples were built again.
3. Palaces were burned.
