Stone Age conclusions
We discussed the rest of the week today. You have a Cradles map due Friday (10 marks for accuracy, 5 for effort, but only entered in out of 7). Here is a good KEY / Guide. Cradles_Labeleds or Cradle map KEY
Also handed out two more worksheets. One is a primary document on going to school for an ancient student. The other is a textbook key term search (good for test study). Neither are digital files currently and they need to picked up in class.
You will be getting a timeline assignment after the map is completed (due Monday). We will review for a test (test is Tuesday) on Monday in class.
stone henge
Why was it built? I don’t know, so you tell me. Your job today is make a theory to explain why Stonehenge was built and explain it to me. Use what we’ve discussed about Stone age Culture and how man developed culture, religious, farming, villages, and anything else you would like to work into a theory on the construction of a megalithic stone age shrine.

Inventions
We classify the OLD and NEW stone age by drawing a line between hunter gatherers that lived a nomadic life style (old) and village dwellers harvesting food and taming animals with developing power structures and begging of religions.

Stone age Man
Today we split the Stone Age into two half’s. An Old and New one. In the OLD stone age man was a hunter gatherer. Living in caves in a nomadic life style but starting to develop new inventions to make life easier. In the NEW stone age man is settling down into villages and communities. Farming seems to be the difference maker. Wheat is gathered and harvested.
Hand out was distributed in class. See Mr King if your missing one.
