I think that <span>extrapolating the behaviors of ancient hunter-gatherers by studying modern hunter-gatherer groups is a valid approach. 

Modern hunter-gatherer groups learn how to do their daily tasks from the lessons and teachings imparted to them by their elders. Their elders also learned from their elders and so on. This is how knowledge and skills are passed down from one generation to another. One way or another, the methods and applications that modern hunter-gatherer groups use originated from the behaviors of ancient hunter-gatherers. There may be changes but these changes are usually applied in order for the group to adapt to the conditions that they are living in at that time. 

In short, </span><span>learning about modern hunter-gatherer groups is vital in understanding early societies because the practices of today are the results of the practices of yesterday with variation to ensure longevity.</span>

Ancient Egypt

Pyramids

Nile Delta

Valley of the Kings

2.

Ancient Indus Valley

Streets planned on a grid

Hindu Kush mountains

Large, central granaries

3.

Ancient China

Geographically isolated due to the Himalaya mountains, Gobi Desert and surrounding seas.

Yellow and Yangtze Rivers

Silkworms

Explanation:

Ancient Egypt, much like modern-day Egypt, relies on the Nile rivers irrigation to help keep the soil around the river fertile and good for arable farming. It is also home to the Valley of Kings and the pyramids were also built along the Nile.

The ancient Indus Valley civilization is a vast area with the large Indus river flowing through it. This river begins in the Hindu Kush and flows to the Arabian Sea. The river offered good irrigation to grow grains.

One of ancient China’s most valuable exports was silk. They kept the silkworms and people would travel great distances to obtain the silk. This trade route was known as the silk road. This was difficult as China has the Himalayas to its South, the Gobi desert to cross to Europe and an ocean along its Eastern border.

How does Lucas say the signers of the Declaration of Independence created the sense that war was inevitable?
MArishka [77]

If you study the declaration of independence closely, it us clear that the declaration demands rights. And the oppressive regimes of the world would be unwilling to grant those rights. In order to achieve those rights, one will have to fight. And that will pave the way for war. It has become evident now after centuries. United States believed in the rights and freedom of the people. That had the U.S entering the world wars. All the wars after that too, were basically based on this very idea. FREEDOM.
