The historian should: A) Study ancient Roman culture to learn more about Roman attitudes toward violence and slavery.

To learn any subject that involves history, it is very important to know the context as many things change depending on the period and place selected. By studying Roman culture he will be closer to undestanding the values that were learned and exalted. He would probably learn that being a slave was very common and rarely questioned. The way death is undestanded might have changed as well.

In this way the historian can take some distance from his own values and preconceptions and have a broader understanding of the topic chosen.

Answer: I would write something on the basis of "following the Constitution."

Explanation:

The Constitution lays down a foundation for each citizens' rights, and limits the government from infringing on these rights. It also keeps the government confined to what was said in the constitution, but allows We, the People to amend it. Our First Amendment freedoms allow us to express our opinions freely, no matter how crazy or extreme they might be; our Second Amendment allows us to form militias, and bear arms against any threat, foreign and domestic. It was designed not only to allow We, the People to defend ourselves from petty criminals, but allows us to defend ourselves and our freedoms from any tyrannical government that may arise in the States. The other Amendments in the Bill of Rights also keep the government from expanding, but it is all too complicated too explain here.

Place the technology advancements in the order in which they emerged. Tiles the first school of oceanic navigation Ptolemy’s map
rjkz [21]

Here's the order:

  1. Ptolemy's map of the world
  2. the first school of oceanic navigation
  3. Portuguese caravels with triangular sails

Details:

Ptolemy (ca. 100-150 AD) was an astronomer, mathematician and geographer in the Roman Empire era.  Ptolemy's map of the world was a map based on descriptions in Ptolemy's book, <em>Geography, </em>which dates back to around the year 150 AD.

Prince Henry the Navigator started the first school for oceanic navigation at Sagres, Portugal, for training in navigation, map-making, and science. The date of founding of the school (and even full details about it) are a bit uncertain, but it seems to have been established in about 1418.  Prince Henry was called "The Navigator" because of his strong support for sending out ocean exploration voyages.

Caravels were developed by the Portuguese around the middle of the 15th century (around 1450).  These more agile ships were better suited to ocean sailing than previous ship models used in the calmer waters of the Mediterranean Sea.
