Daniel Roxin 2. Sat_pietriceaua. Aşa cum cele mai ferite sate din calea migratorilor au fost cele de deal şi de munte, tot aşa primele zone locuite ale satului Pietriceaua au fost cele din Vârf şi Gâlme. După cum bine se ştie, prima atestare documentară nu înseamnă şi actul de naştere al unei aşezări. În documentele medievale cătunele şi satele sunt menţionate treptat, de regulă atunci când erau dăruite mânăstirilor, slujbaşilor domneşti sau chiar voievodului, când exista un hrisov de danie ori o pricină anume. În numeroase documente apare specificat faptul că hotarele erau demult stabilite de către obştea satului, cu mult înainte de atestarea lor, ,,cu ştirea tuturor megieşilor din sus şi din jos’’, cu ,,hotarele vechi şi de demult’’, ,,pe unde au fost din vecii vecilor’’.

Se înţelege că satele din această zonă, ca de altfel din întreg arealul montan, au fost libere. Deşi cu o vechime apreciabilă, care-l situează printre primele aşezări muntene, despre satul Pietriceaua nu ne apar documente decât destul de târziu. List of territorial disputes. A map with disputed borders. This is a list territorial disputes over lands around the world, both past and in modern times.

Disputes between recognized sovereign states[edit] Africa[edit] Asia and the Pacific[edit] Europe[edit] North America[edit] Territory disputed between Canada and the United States[edit] Central America and the Caribbean[edit] South America[edit] Disputes between recognized sovereign states and other states[edit] Disputes between a state and its subnational entities, or between subnational entities[edit] Antarctica[edit] The Antarctic Treaty System, formed on 1 December 1959 and entered into force on 23 June 1961, establishes the legal framework for the management of Antarctica and provides administration for the continent, which is carried out through consultative member meetings.

Historical disputes, subsequently settled[edit] Africa[edit] Asia and Pacific[edit] Americas[edit] Relation (history of concept) The concept of relation has a long and complicated history in philosophy. For the ancient Greeks the relation between one thing and another was just one of many ways in which any particular thing could be described. An interest was also developing at the time in the difference between the relations and the things themselves culminating in one view that the things in themselves cannot be known except through their relations. The debate continues into modern philosophy with further investigation into types of relation and whether relations exist only in the mind or the real world or both.

An understanding of types of relation is important to an understanding of relations between many things including that between people, communities and the wider world. Most of these are complex relations but of the simpler, analytical relations out of which they are formed there are generally held to be three types, although opinion on the number may differ.

The blood in Irish veins is Celtic, right? Well, not exactly. Although the history many Irish people were taught at school is the history of the Irish as a Celtic race, the truth is much more complicated, and much more interesting than that ... Research done into the DNA of Irish males has shown that the old Anthropological attempts to define 'Irish' have been misguided.

As late as the 1950s researchers were busy collecting data among Irish people such as hair colour and height, in order to categorise them as a 'race' and define them as different to the British. In fact British and Irish people are closely related in their ancestry. Research into Irish DNA and ancestry has revealed close links with Scotland stretching back to before the Ulster Planation of the early 1600s. Medieval map of Ireland, showing Irish tribes. Irish Blood: origins of DNA The earliest settlers came to Ireland around 10,000 years ago, in Stone Age times.

John Lewis Gaddis. John Lewis Gaddis (born 1941 in Cotulla, Texas, U.S.)[1] is a historian of the Cold War and grand strategy,[2] hailed as the "Dean of Cold War Historians" by The New York Times.[3] He is the Robert A. Lovett Professor of Military and Naval History at Yale University.[2] He is also the official biographer of the seminal 20th-century American statesman George F. Kennan.[4] His biography of Kennan won the Pulitzer Prize for Biography in 2012.[5] Biography[edit] Raised in Cotulla, Texas, Gaddis attended the University of Texas at Austin, receiving his BA in 1963, MA in 1965, and PhD in 1968,[6][7] the latter under the direction of Robert Divine.

Gaddis then taught briefly at Indiana University Southeast, before joining Ohio University in 1969.[6] At Ohio, he founded and directed the Contemporary History Institute,[8] and was named a distinguished professor in 1983.[6] In the 1975–77 academic years, Gaddis was a Visiting Professor of Strategy at the Naval War College. Scholarship[edit] List of human evolution fossils.

The following charts give a brief overview of several notable hominin fossil finds relating to human evolution beginning with the formation of the Hominini tribe in the late Miocene (roughly 6 million years ago). As there are thousands of fossils, mostly fragmentary, often consisting of single bones or isolated teeth with complete skulls and skeletons rare,[1] this overview is not meant to be complete, but does show some of the most important finds. The fossils are arranged by approximate age as determined by radiometric dating and/or incremental dating and the species name represents current consensus - if there is no clear scientific consensus the other possible classifications are indicated. Deprecated classifications may be found on the fossil's page. Most of the fossils shown are not considered direct ancestors to Homo sapiens but are closely related to direct ancestors and are therefore important to the study of the lineage.

Space Age. The signals of Sputnik 1 continued for 22 days. The Space Age is a time period encompassing the activities related to the Space Race, space exploration, space technology, and the cultural developments influenced by these events. The Space Age is generally considered to have begun with Sputnik (1957). §Beginning[edit] The Space Age began with the development of several technologies that culminated on October 4, 1957, with the launch of Sputnik 1 by the Soviet Union. This was the world's first artificial satellite, orbiting the Earth in 98.1 minutes and weighing in at 83 kg (183 lb). The launch of Sputnik 1 ushered a new era of political, scientific and technological achievements that became known as the Space Age.[2] The Space Age was characterized by rapid development of new technology in a close race mostly between the US and the Soviet Union. The Space Age reached its peak with the Apollo program, that captured the imagination of much of the world's population.

§Current period[edit] Social Age. Information Age. A visualization of the various routes through a portion of the Internet. The Information Age (also known as the Computer Age, Digital Age, or New Media Age) is a period in human history characterized by the shift from traditional industry that the industrial revolution brought through industrialization, to an economy based on information computerization.

The onset of the Information Age is associated with the Digital Revolution, just as the Industrial Revolution marked the onset of the Industrial Age. During the information age, the phenomenon is that the digital industry creates a knowledge-based society surrounded by a high-tech global economy that spans over its influence on how the manufacturing throughput and the service sector operate in an efficient and convenient way.

The Internet[edit] The Internet was conceived as a fail-proof network that could connect computers together and be resistant to any single point of failure. Progression[edit] Library expansion[edit] Computation[edit] Dot-com bubble. The period was marked by the founding (and, in many cases, spectacular failure) of a group of new Internet-based companies commonly referred to as dot-coms. Companies could cause their stock prices to increase by simply adding an "e-" prefix to their name or a ".com" to the end, which one author called "prefix investing. "[3] A combination of rapidly increasing stock prices, market confidence that the companies would turn future profits, individual speculation in stocks, and widely available venture capital created an environment in which many investors were willing to overlook traditional metrics, such as P/E ratio, in favor of basing confidence on technological advancements.

The collapse of the bubble took place during 1999–2001. Bubble growth[edit] Soaring stocks[edit] "But did the kids [the often young dotcom entrepreneurs] dupe the establishment by drawing them into fake companies, or did the establishment dupe the kids by introducing them to Mammon and charging a commission on it? " List of pre-modern great powers. The historical term "Great Nation",[3][4][5] distinguished aggregate of people inhabiting a particular country or territory, and "Great Empire",[6] considerable group of states or countries under a single supreme authority, are colloquial; use is seen in ordinary historical conversations (historical jargon).

History[edit] Ancient powers[edit] Ancient Near East[edit] The term ancient Near East encompasses the early civilizations during the time roughly spanning the Bronze Age from the rise of Sumer and Gerzeh in the 4th millennium BCE to the expansion of the Persian Empire in the 6th century BCE. The ancient Near East is generally understood as encompassing Mesopotamia (modern Iraq and Syria), Persia (modern Iran), Armenia, the Levant (modern Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, Palestinian Authority), and at times Anatolia (modern Turkey) and Ancient Egypt.

Sumer and Akkad[edit] Ancient Babylon was officially conquered by the Achemidian Persian Empire in the late 6th century BCE. Elam[edit] List of time periods. The categorization of time into discrete named blocks is called periodization. This is a list of such named time periods as defined in various fields of study. Major categorization systems include cosmological (concerning the various time periods in the origin and evolution of the Universe), geological (concerning time periods in the origin and evolution of earth) and historical (concerning time periods in the origin and human evolution). Human time periods[edit] These can be divided broadly into prehistorical (before history began to be recorded) and historical periods (when written records began to be kept). In archaeology and anthropology, human prehistory is subdivided around the three-age system.

This list includes the use of the three-age system as well as a number of various designation used in reference to sub-ages within the traditional three. The dates for each age can vary by region.

Neolithic. Art of Gods. Control of fire by early humans. A reconstruction of Homo erectus, the earliest human species that is known to have controlled fire (reconstruction shown in Westfälisches Landesmuseum, Herne, Germany, in a 2006 exhibition) The control of fire by early humans was a turning point in the cultural aspect of human evolution that allowed humans to cook food and obtain warmth and protection.

Making fire also allowed the expansion of human activity into the dark and colder hours of the night, and provided protection from predators and insects.[1] Evidence of widespread control of fire dates to approximately 125,000 years ago and later.[2] Evidence for the controlled use of fire by Homo erectus beginning some 400,000 years ago has wide scholarly support, with claims regarding earlier evidence finding increasing scientific support.[3][4] Lower Paleolithic evidence[edit] All evidence of control of fire during the Lower Paleolithic is uncertain and has at best limited scholarly support. Middle Paleolithic evidence[edit] Africa[edit] Ancient-Wisdom - Online Guide to Prehistory. Paleolithic. The term "Paleolithic" was coined by archaeologist John Lubbock in 1865.[6] It derives from Greek: παλαιός, palaios, "old"; and λίθος, lithos, "stone", literally meaning "old age of the stone" or "Old Stone Age.

" Human evolution[edit] Human evolution is the part of biological evolution concerning the emergence of humans as a distinct species. Paleogeography and climate[edit] The Paleolithic climate consisted of a set of glacial and interglacial periods. The climate of the Paleolithic Period spanned two geologic epochs known as the Pliocene and the Pleistocene. Both of these epochs experienced important geographic and climatic changes that affected human societies. During the Pliocene, continents continued to drift from possibly as far as 250 km from their present locations to positions only 70 km from their current location.

Climates during the Pliocene became cooler and drier, and seasonal, similar to modern climates. Paleoindians hunting a glyptodon. The effects of glaciation were global. Harti ascunse.
