  3. Resilient- bouncing back from adversity or misfortune; recovering quickly Pronunciation Amy’s long wait for her SAT scores finally ended. She nervously accessed her College Board account. Then as the numbers appeared on her computer screen, her heart sank. The scores were not as good as she had hoped. What would Amy do? Would she make excuses and give up? Or would she be RESILIENT and bounce back from a temporary setback? Amy chose to study harder. Her RESILIENCE worked. Her SAT scores shot up, and she received a scholarship to her top college choice.

  4. Why might these people be described as resilient?

  5. Pop Quiz: What are the three most important events that humans have undergone in their entire history? Transform – verb. To change (something) completely and usually in a good way.

  6. Agricultural Revolutions • Why the shift? • Domestication and Semi-cultivation • New Technology: Slash-and-burn and swidden agriculture • Why not call it the Neolithic Revolution?

  7. Key Elements • Animal Domestication Dog first, then sheep, goats, cattle, water buffalo, pigs • Selective Breeding • Mixed farming and herding  Largely determined by environmental factors

  8. Ecological Crisis • Why did so many adopt Agriculture? (Holocene) • Why did others still reject agriculture? Pastoralism ruled in N. America, Australia, and Northern Eurasia • Demographic Shifts: 2 million people 13,000 years ago, 50-100 million people 7,000 years ago.

  9. Life in Neolithic Communities • Benefits and Risks? • Violent or peaceful process? • Expansion = surpluses and slow rate • Rise of Institutions Nuclear families (no), kinship networks (yes)

  10. Cultural Expressions • Religion Shift to focus on Earth Mother, Sky God, and ancestor cults • Language  Likely necessitated out of trade (Similarity in language groups)

  11. Making Comparisons I need 11 volunteers to come to the front of the room.

  12. Practice: Identify a difference.

  13. Practice: Identify a similarity.

  14. Direct Comparisons: • What characteristics could we use to compare an Apple and an Orange? • If we wanted to compare their appearance, would it be appropriate to say that one is orange and the other has a smooth, somewhat shiny appearance? • Reorganize your groups into new categories using DIRECT comparisons. Remember, you must have at least 3 groups, and at least 2 artifacts in each group. • If we wanted to compare two societies, what characteristics could we use?

  15. GRAPES Comparison • Geography • Religion • Achievements • Politics • Economics • Social Structure
