What did they call the red Sea back then

History
1 answer:
Shalnov [3]3 years ago
4 0

The first people known to explore the Red Sea were the Ancient Egyptians, who explored the area c. 2500 BC while looking for commercial routes southward. So how did the Red Sea get its name? Theories abound, but no one knows for sure.

It could be from the red-hued "sea sawdust," a type of bacteria that grows near the water's surface. Some historians believe the Red Sea is named for the Himyarites, a group who once lived along it's shores.  Others believe that the "red" in Red Sea is actually a designator of the Sea's location relative to the ancient Mediterranean world - to the South. In ancient languages, the colors black, red, green, and white referred to North, South, East, and West, respectively.

How did scientific rationalism affect governments?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Scientific rationalism helped people to remove myths and take them forward towards more logic thus people pushed their governments to fund the work of scientists.

A rationalist, rather than emotions, experience, or religious belief, would use reason and logic to make sense of the universe. Scientific rationalism is another name for rationalism, yet they both signify the same idea. The Enlightenment was centred on rationalism.

Rationalism, in essence, considers reason as the primary source and test of knowledge or what is true. In the case of rationalism, truth is intellectual rather than sensory, which is why rationalists think that knowledge can be obtained solely by reason.
