Hey there!
Athens led the Delian League. They taxed the members of the league in exchange for protection from the powerful navy of Athens. However, Athens was gaining power, and under ruler Pericles, they used the money given to them by those who they protected and taxed to create the Golden Age of Athens. At that time, Athens was at the height of its power, and they had many beautiful marble temples, statues, and walls in their city. Eventually, the members of the Leauge figured out and began to resent Athens, Sparta created their own league, and the Peloponnesian War began.
During this war, Sparta ended up victorious over Athens, but afterward, the entirety of Greece was weak. Philip II of Macedonia, the father of the later conqueror of Greece, Alexander the Great, came in with his army and took Greece over.
Hope this helps!
Conclusions of archeologists were based on artifacts found over a large area. Exact dates cannot always be determined, and scientists don't always agree on the data provided by the evidence. New discoveries may contradict theories that have already been accepted.
Cactus Hill site has human remains that have been dated to about 20,000 years ago. Due to its location in Virginia proves that human beings had arrived in America earlier than this. That data contradicts the theory that claims that humans reached America from Siberia through the modern day Bring Strait.
The Cactus Hill Archaeological Site is located on a wind-deposited terrace of the Nottoway River in Sussex County.
<span>hostility toward immigrants is t</span>he fear and prejudice many felt toward Germans and Communists during and after World War I expanded to include all immigrants. This triggered a general rise in racism and nativism. During World War I, immigration to the United States had dropped sharply, but by 1921, it had returned to prewar levels. Many Americans blamed the bombings, strikes, and recession of the postwar years on immigrants. Many believed immigrants were taking jobs that would otherwise have gone to soldiers returning home from the war.
