The Genealogy of CAAM Jay Raol
History and CAAM? History in the wider sense is all that has happened, not merely all the phenomena of human life, but those of the natural world as well. It includes everything that undergoes change; and as modern science has shown that there is nothing absolutely static, therefore the whole universe, and every part of it, has its history -1911 Encyclopædia Britannica
