Analytical/Informative Project On The Lost City Of Atlantis
So according to Professor Prince, it seems we are still unclear as to what our focus is going to be for the project. I actually thought we had that taken care of, I guess we didn't. Anyway I like Professor Prince's idea of doing our analytical/informative project on the myth's evolution. This seems to be the more appropriate thing to do as the Lost City of Atlantis is a myth.

What do you guys think? If you or Professor Prince have any suggestions that can help us get things rolling, that would be great.

    The material is presented in three parts. The first section introduces students to archaeology and pseudoarchaeology (literally “fake archaeology”), along with the basic concepts of science and anthropology that are necessary for a full understanding of both of these pursuits. In the second part, we apply the lessons of the first section to a series of pseudoarchaeological claims, ranging from the Cardiff Giant and Piltdown hoax to Atlantis and the Crystal Skull. We ask why do people make such claims, and why does the public embrace them? The third part surveys the real marvels of the ancient past, from Easter Island and Machu Picchu to Stonehenge and the Great Zimbabwe. We…

    I believe that the discovery of Garip islands is an enormous accomplishment for the Archeologists. The fact that the Garip islands were once a site of a major battle between Athens and Sparta during the Peloponnesian war is admirable and astonishing. The Athenian citizens made a bitter decision to execute the generals as a punishment of failing to rescue the soldiers because it destroyed the…

    Great Pyramids Research Paper

    The construction of the Great Pyramids of Giza is one of the greatest mysteries in history. They are the largest and most elaborate structures built in the ancient world, which is what considers them to be one of the Seven Wonders of the World. The Great Pyramids of Giza are made up of three separate pyramids for three different pharaohs: Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure who were all pharaohs during the Fourth Dynasty (2,575-2,450 BCE), also known as the Old Kingdom. Khufu’s pyramid was built first and is known as the Great Pyramid. It took over 20 years to build his pyramid with the help of hundreds of thousands of peasants. Khafre, Khufu’s son, built his own pyramid a few years later and this pyramid appears to be larger than Khufu’s, however,…
