An enormously influential biological exchange occurred when Europeans landed in the Americas, to the benefit and detriment of Europeans and Natives. Old World—New World plant and animal exchange resulted in sugar and bananas crossing the Atlantic while pigs, sheep, and cattle arrived in the Americas. The transfer of European diseases had catastrophic repercussions: influenza, typhus, measles, and smallpox devastated the Native American population. The Biological Exchange (also called the Columbian Exchange or Grand Exchange) is one of the most significant biogeological events of world history, affecting almost every society on earth and historians have only recently begun to question the event and the way it has been traditionally interpreted. In the traditional interpretation of the Biological Exchange, Indians lived in harmony with their environment in a pristine world and both the Natives and the environment were suddenly devastated following the arrival of Europeans. Biological exchanges of plants and animals enabled a better and longer life for Europeans, who took food items like potatoes and corn back to the old world were suddenly able to grow food to support their large population while reducing the population overgrowth by transporting humans to the new world.

What did the pharaohs of ancient Egypt eat, wear and do in their spare time
oee [108]
A day in the life of a pharaoh would be filled with many and various tasks and duties. The daily life of a pharaoh encompassed many heavy responsibilities as he was the head of the state, the nation, commander-in-chief of the army and the high priest of Egypt. He was assisted in his many tasks by nobles, court and state officials and members of his family. Time also had to be found for his personal needs. As the king he was always 'on show' and so had to dress for the part, wearing the most appropriate clothes to reflect his high status. He had to allocate time to his family. A pharaoh was allowed to have a chief wife referred to as "King's Principal Wife" but was also allowed lesser wives and concubines who resided in the Royal Harem which also housed all of his children, a school and the residence of the court entertainers. Hope this helps
