The Rise and Fall of the Maya Empire The Classic Period, which began around A.D. 250, was the golden age of the Maya Empire. Classic Maya civilization grew to some 40 cities, including Tikal, Uaxactún, Copán, Bonampak, Dos Pilas, Calakmul, Palenque and Río Bec; each city held a population of between 5,000 and 50,000 people. At its peak, the Maya population may have reached 2,000,000. Excavations of Maya sites have unearthed plazas, palaces, temples and pyramids, as well as courts for playing the ball games that were ritually and politically significant to Maya culture. The Maya were deeply religious, and worshiped various gods related to nature, including the gods of the sun, the moon, rain and corn. The Classic Maya built many of their temples and palaces in a stepped pyramid shape, decorating them with elaborate reliefs and inscriptions. Serious exploration of Classic Maya sites began in the 1830s.

Origami Origami Romania • Romania Caught On A Whim Simply Vintagegirl Blog 6 March 2014 When I picked up a little book titled “Free Grace and Dying Love,” I couldn’t help but begin pouring over its pages.

I need Christ in all things and I know that He is sufficient.

La Geometria degli origami La forza degli origami di Liz Newton (traduzione a cura di Marco Crespi)versione originale su Plus Magazine. Una breve storia degli origami Sebbene gli origami siano tutt’oggi sinonimo di Giappone, la prima traccia di questa tradizione arriva dalla Cina, dove la carta venne prodotta fin dal 200 come alternativa economica alla seta. Pegaso realizzato da Robert J. Gli origami iniziarono così a diffondersi in Giappone. E questo sarebbe rimasto se non fosse stato per l’operaio giapponese Akira Yoshizawa. Con la pratica, Yoshizawa sviluppò alcune tecniche pionieristiche come quella del “wet folding” (letteralmente piega bagnata) che permetteva schemi più complicati e la possibilità di realizzare su un singolo foglio un maggior numero di curve. Con il disegno di schemi sempre più complessi, questa arte iniziò ad attirare l’interesse dei matematici che avevano la stessa ideaa di Yoshizawa: c’era una grande intersezione tra l’arte di piegare la carta e la Geometria.
