William Becknell (1787 or 1788–30 April 1865) was a soldier, politician, and freight operator who is credited with opening the Santa Fe Trail in 1821.The Santa Fe Trail was a 19th-century transportation route through central North America that connected Independence, Missouri with Santa Fe, New Mexico. It served as a vital commercial highway until the introduction of the railroad to Santa Fe in 1880. But, William Becknell was often using long-established trails made by Native Americans and followed by Spanish and French colonial explorers and traders for years before his trip.French colonists in St. Louis had a monopoly on trade with Santa Fe granted by the Spanish rulers before the Louisiana Purchase by the United States. When Mexico achieved independence from Spain in 1821, it opened up trade to its territories; residents of Santa Fe were eager for more trade goods.In 1822 Becknell altered his route to Santa Fe in order to find a trail more suitable for wagon trains, and enable transport of more trade goods. Earlier travelers had ridden on horseback trailing packhorses. By 1825, he assisted a surveyor with the federal government in mapping the trail, to make it available for commercial and military use.

In many historical accounts, the Greeks were known for their panel painting, yet none of it survives. Some have hypothesized tha
Alika [10]

The Etruscans were a people that lived in Italy between 8th and 3rd centuries, their greatest legacies are their panel paintings that were located especially in tombs. Etruscans painted scenes with mythological themes and also portrayed everyday life.

The Romans absorbed most of the Etruscans culture, including the paintings. The main difference is that the Romans started to use the paintings as a way of decorating their houses, different than the Etruscans that only painted tombs.

The Romans also changed the painting system by applying the pigment over wet plaster, which fixed the pigment to the wall, because of that they are called frescoes. The Roman painters had different styles depending on the time, first, they were very influenced by the Greek because during that period Rome conquered Greece, later, the painters changed to a more refined style.

Both Etruscans and Romans pictures are very important because they show the culture and the habits of that people and how they saw the world around them, also because we could see the evolution of them and how they culture was mixed with the several conquers of the Romans.
