I am an Egyptologist Ph.D. and a Westerner and I know what you are talking about.A big part of my life I have been defending Egyptian Culture against misplaced attacks from Europeans (I am European). The reason is probably that it is the most brilliant and greatest Culture of the early world and...

It would be called "settling" or "urbanization" but the last only in the case of major sites (towns). This happens when Hunter/Gatherers settle down and start to work the soil. This can also be called an agricultural society.

I see that women have start spending fortunes on bags with labels. It has even become normal to rent a bad for a week or a few days paying up to 250 $ or more. Why would we do that? I like nice things as much as any other woman but THAT is totally ridiculous. Your thoughts please. Guys can also...

There has never been a garden of Eden it is a myth . Mankind wants to believe there is or was a place where everything was perfect we put it in the past because we are sure not to find it here. Think of El Dorado the Spanish Conquistadores were looking for or Xanadu . You can think of Plato's...

Well I am European and I think you are part right and part wrong. Europeans have been around in their own country for a long time and have become somewhat chauvinistic (see French,German,English).The rest of us with countries like Spain and Italy (I am none of both) are not at all. To say that...

Both Civilizations rose next to rivers. The Egyptian next to the Nile and Mesopotamian between the branches of the Tigris and Euphrates. In both cases you have fertile land which was sometimes covered by the waters of the overflowing streams and left it when they withdraw ready for...
