Answer & Explanation:
In 1904 Eduard Meyer stated that the Egyptian calendar was invented about 4231 B. C., and some of the principal Egyptologists of his generation adopted this theory with minor modifications. In recent years it has been realized that 4231 B. C. was far back in the prehistoric period, long before the invention of writing, and of necessity later dates have had to be advanced for the adoption of the calendar as we know it. Primitive man in Egypt regulated his life entirely by the cycle of the Nile's stages. Nature divided his year into three well-defined seasons-Flood, Spring, and Low Water or Harvest, with the Flood Season, following the hardship of the Low Nile, the obvious starting point for each annual cycle. The Egyptian early recognized the fact that usually twelve moons would complete a Nile year, but his lunar reckoning always remained secondary to his Nile reckoning, and he never adopted solar seasons.
For several centuries the calendar was fixed to the star and thus was approximately correct, but the experience of generations was apparently proving that the perfect year should be 365 days long, and in 2773 B. C. a year of this length was adopted, by the simple expedient of neglecting to readjust the calendar by annual observations. Since no change was ever permitted thereafter, the Egyptian calendar was only correct once in every 1460 years.

What was marie antoniettes middle name?
Marietta was her Nickname.
Famous quotes- "There is nothing new except what has been forgotten."
"I have seen all, I have heard all, I have forgotten all."
"No one understands my ills, nor the terror that fills my breast, who does not know the heart of a mother."
"Courage! I have shown it for years; think you I shall lose it at the moment when my sufferings are to end?"
Name Change- After tedious and lengthy negotiations, King Louis XV requested the hand of the Archduchess for his grandson and heir, Louis Auguste. In consideration of the marriage, her name was changed to Marie Antoinette. The name was thought to be more appropriate for the Dauphine of France and later, the Queen of France.
Full Name- Maria Antonia Josepha Johanna
The campaign against Marie Antoinette likewise grew stronger. In July 1793, she lost custody of her young son, who was forced to accuse her of sexual abuse and incest before a Revolutionary tribunal. In October, she was convicted of treason and sent to the guillotine. Though Marie Antoinette was innocent of any involvement, she was nevertheless guilty in the eyes of the people. Refusing to let public criticism alter her behavior, in 1786 Marie Antoinette began building the Hameau de la Reine, an extravagant retreat near the Petit Trianon in Versailles. Your Welcome. :)

Why is it difficult to study the history of Africa today?
Answer:
search on quora
Explanation:
I see the question and long answer
Answer:
The history of Black Africa will remain suspended in the air and will not be written correctly until African historians dare connect it with the history of Egypt. The African historian, who evades this, is neither modest nor objective or unruffled; African history becomes difficult to study because appropriate steps are not taken to detail down every beat of it. The evidence of Africa history as stated by divers authors are bearly not enough.. And there should be initiation of ample mechanism like the carbon dating system as used in the course of writing other history and this will streamline the process of obtaining evidence in writing Africa history which inturn will make it quiet easier to study
How will these differences between Martin Luther and the pope be resolved?
Answer:
On October 31, 1517, German scholar Martin Luther is said to have nailed his argument against the Catholic Church's sale of better treatment after death to a church door in Wittenberg.
Whether this actually happened is disputed, but what's not disputed is that his "95 Theses" quickly spread debate through Europe and led to an irrevocable split in Western Christianity.
Luther's influence can still be felt — he's been credited with the rise of secular democracy, among other things — but it was theology that he was concerned about.
If all you know about the Reformation are references on The Simpsons, read on to find out why Luther disagreed with the Catholic Church.

Before the location was renamed, where was the new capital moved to?
A. Pamlico
B. Jamestown
C. Middle Plantation
D. Henrico
The correct answer is C) Middle Plantation.
Before the location was renamed, the new capital moved to "Middle Plantation."
We are talking about the North American colonial times, in the Virginia colony. Established in 1632, the Middle Plantation was a territory located between the York and the James River. In times of Bacon Rebellion in 1675, the Middle Plantation became the second most important town after Jamestown. Later, in 1693, the College of William & Mary was founded here. And in 1699, this place became the capital of Virginia, after a fire burned down the capitol in Jamestown. Today, this place is Williamsburg, Virginia.

Talking Points on Opposing the Flag Desecration Amendment
Reasons why the flag desecration constitutional amendment is unwarranted and unconstitutional:
This amendment is injurious to one of the very freedoms the flag symbolizes: free speech. It directly empowers the Congress to engage in thought control. There is a distinct difference between real and forced patriotism. Flag burning and desecration is offensive because it is political. Experience shows that the way to fight political expression with which one disagrees is not to outlaw it, but to express disapproval.
Freedom cannot survive if exceptions to the First Amendment are made when someone in power disagrees with an expression. If we allow that, our right to free speech will depend on what Congress finds acceptable, precisely what the First Amendment was designed to prevent.
This amendment may provoke rather than diminish the very acts it purports to curtail. Our nation's experiment with an amendment to the Constitution concerning Prohibition shows that a cure by amendment to the Constitution may itself incite harm of the very nature it seeks to prevent.
The flag desecration amendment is a solution in search of a problem. The expressive act, burning a flag, which this amendment attempts to curtail, is exceedingly rare. Professor Robert Justin Goldstein documented approximately 45 reported incidents of flag burning in the over 200 years between 1777 when the flag was adopted, and 1989, when Congress passed, and the Supreme Court rejected, the Flag Protection Act. About half of these occurred during the Vietnam War.
This amendment would be the beginning, not the end, of the question of how to regulate a certain form of expression. It empowers Congress to begin the task of defining what the "flag" and "desecration" mean. The use of the flag as symbol is ubiquitous, from commerce, to art, to memorials, such that Congress would be in the position of defining broad rules for specific applications. Congress, the courts, and law enforcement agents would have to judge whether displaying the flag on Polo jeans is "desecration," but the Smithsonian's recent removal of two million stitches from the 188-year old flag that inspired Frances Scott Key, is not.
The United States Supreme Court has ruled consistently that flag burning is a form of speech protected by the First Amendment. In Texas v. Johnson (1989), the Supreme Court held it unconstitutional to apply to a protester a Texas law punishing people who "desecrate" or otherwise "mistreat" the flag in a manner that the "actor knows will seriously offend one or more persons likely to observe or discover his action." The Court found that the law made flag burning a crime only when the suspect's thoughts and message in the act of burning were offensive, thus violating the First Amendment's protections of freedom of the mind and freedom of speech. The next year, in United States v. Eichman (1990), the Court reviewed a Congressional statute that attempted to be neutral as to the messages that might be conveyed, prohibiting flag burning except when attempting the "disposal of a flag when it has become worn or soiled." The Court struck down this statute as another attempt to punish offensive thoughts.
