The two events that contributed to the spread of ancient Greek culture and literature were 4)The launch of the Olympic games  and 5)Publication of Homer's epic poems.

The Olympics had great importance to the Greeks because they had a religious, political and sporting character. First, it was a form of devotion to the gods, mainly Zeus (god of the gods). It was also an important moment in the search for harmony between city-states. It also served as a health and healthy body enhancement event. Games took place every four years. At the time of the sports event, there was a truce in wars and conflicts. The well-known "Olympic peace" served to ensure safety for athletes who had to move from their city-states to Olympia.

Between the 8th and 9th centuries BC, Ancient Greece, also known by the name of Hellas, lived the so-called Homeric Period, that is, the period that followed the archaic phase and period of the cultures of Crete and Mycenae. This period was named after the figure of the poet Homer, considered the author of the epics Iliad and Odyssey, to emphasize the importance that the poems of Homer had in Greek education.

lakkis [162]
The first and foremost merit of Protestant Reformation is that it dispensed with one, unique, and unquestionable authority, embodied in the Roman Catholic Church. It opened the path to pluralism - a multitude of opinions that seek to be freely expressed, without censure and fear of punishment. It dismantled the dogma of one truth and one truth only - whether it be about God, Trinity, priests, an attitude towards worldly riches or anything else. Even though it was not secular, its focus on living in this world rather than in anticipation of heaven or hell, opened new perspectives for the development of secularism too.

Which was a key role of Native American women in feeding their family's
anastassius [24]
Native American Women

Women played a very important role in the life of the Native American. They were more than just mothers of the tribes’ children. They were builders, warriors, farmers, and craftswomen. Their strength was essential to the survival of the tribes.

In most cases, the women were actually in charge of gathering materials and then building the homes for everyone. They maintained their homes’ roof, and created new houses for tribes to live in. This is an astonishing achievement, particularly for the women of their time. The men knew that women were the source of life, and provided a feeling of strength and consistency to their lives. The women in Native American tribes often helped their men to hunt down buffalo. Then, when the buffalo were harvested, the women were responsible for skinning, cutting, and cooking the animal. They also gathered firewood, cooked, and repaired clothing and shoes.

 

But Native American women were not simply homemakers. In fact, they served a great deal of important purposes and were essential to the tribe in other ways as well. Women made tools and weapons out of animal bone, which were absolutely necessary for everyone’s’ survival. Not only was there medicine men in the tribes but there were medicine women as well. In fact, many Native American tribes believed that the women had more healing power and were able to soothe ill souls with their chants and connection to the spirit world. Medicine women gathered herbs to create healing medicines for those who fell sick within the tribe. Additionally, most Native American women were master craftsman who made beautiful blankets, baskets, and pottery. Jewelry was another favorite. There was a feeling of mutual respect between the men and women of the tribes. They cared for their children and husbands, just like the modern woman does today. Without their help, it would have been very difficult for the Native Americans to survive.
