The correct answer to this open question is the following.
I do not agree with what John Green said.
John Green stated that it might have been better if the Persians beat the Greeks. His arguments were that the Persian life was not bad. Persians ruled prosperous cities. And he comments that life was not easy in ancient Greece if you were a woman or a slave.
Of course, Greece was not perfect and had many issues. But the Persia Empire also had its many issues too.
I think it was good that Greece won the Persian Wars. The Greek victory established a foundation of a classical time in which Greece "exported" the idea of democracy to other states, as well as the philosophical ideas of great thinkers of Athens. Arts, literature, sculpture, and architecture were other important Greek influences that transcended the test of time.
Perspective was rediscovered by Filippo Brunelleschi through studying of ancient roman buildings and classical writing on architecture.
That's one I have I still have to find more though.

Excavation in archeology is the controlled exploration of what lies under the surface. It is usually carried out in an ordered way in gridded trenches with a shovel and trowel. It is often slow and tedious work which involves digging down a centimeter at a time, but can be back breaking and difficult toil, sometimes shoveling through meters of densely packed soil. Either way, the purpose is basically the same, to uncover and reveal the type of human activities that took place at particular site over time.
The correct answer is option D.
After the Seventh Regiment Cavalry gathered and rounded up over 300 Sioux at Wounded Knee Fort, an attempt at disarming them led ultimately to the massacre of more than 300 Sioux. Also about 40 whites died during the incident.
A deaf American Indian, confused by the orders from the soldiers, refused to follow orders thus starting the incident which ultimately would cost the lives of over 350 people, both Sioux and whites.
