  1. Lessons of #collapse : #civilizations are failing from inside when some crisis puts the system to its limits. The story of the #BronzeAge collapse has been told numerous times. Michael Button is telling a similar story for the collapse of the #Mayan civilization.

  3. God cannot #stop with this. It is a #drug and #addiction to him: "(the #creation)". All along, you are here 'not #living' but just #surviving. New #technology shows that #ancient #civilizations are 10 times older than #originally thought.

  5. @jeffjarvis In a very loose #sense, #Americans could be considered #Germans 2.0 if we look at the actual development of #civilizations according to Sid Meier.
    But that’s not even such a far-fetched #idea when you think about it.

  9. I see clearly what #colonization has destroyed: the wonderful Indian #civilizations - and neither Deterding nor Royal #Dutch nor Standard #Oil will ever console me for the #Aztecs and the #Incas.

  11. You know how the #dinosaurs went extinct - they committed suicide when they saw the white #man coming. They said to themselves, clearly white men are the apex predator of #earth, so there's no point of us being!

    Asteroids wiped out the dinosaurs, caucasteroids wiped out #civilizations. #Colonialism was a mass extinction event, yet no textbook has the spine to bear the burden.

  13. #History of the #world written by #colonizers is no different from #map of the world made by flat earthers - just like flat earthers flatten the globe to fit their delusion, colonizers flatten #civilizations into savages, #philosophies into myths, cosmologies into coincidences, lived holiness into paganism, erasure into expansion, trafficking into trade, native #resistance into terrorism, and #colonial terrorism into civilizing.

  15. At the end of the century, #fascism leaves no lasting mark on thousand year old #civilizations, it's only the adolescent #countries like the #US that get wiped out of existence.

  18. Hab mich heute nochmal mit der Demo von Civilizations für den C64 beschäftigt, die letzten Male wurde die Maus nicht erkannt 🙄. Heute dann endlich mittels eines Flags die Maus in dem Spiel zum laufen bekommrn, sie läuft also auf dem Gameport 2, hab der Maus den Platz nun fest vorgegeben.

    Jetzt kann man das Spiel per Joystick oder Maus spielen 🙂. Mit Maus ist deutlich besser 😁.

  19. For billions of years, Earth’s #continents have remained remarkably stable, forming the foundation for #mountains, #ecosystems and #civilizations. But the secret to their stability has mystified #scientists for more than a century.

  21. We allow ourselves to be pushed further and further away from our #inner universe. However, it is there, and only there, that #human strength, #happiness, and fulfillment reside. It is there, and only there, that the strength and appeal of a #culture grow. It is there that #civilizations arise, and there that they die.

  22. To find advanced #civilizations, you don’t need to go hunting for #megastructures or hypothetical #space probes.

    You could find civilizations by looking for a key element: #hydrogen. #Deuterium holds a whole lot of promise for nuclear fusion.

    To harvest deuterium, an alien civilization might draw it from its oceans. This would cause a visible imbalance in the deuterium-to-hydrogen ratio, potentially visible with next-generation telescopes.

    ❛❛ #Civilizations need #energy to expand. You’ve probably heard of the #Kardashev scale, which classifies civilizations based on their ability to generate and use energy (if you’re interested, #humans are barely on the scale). A new paper has shaken up that scale ❜❜ (with ad 7 min.)

  26. The #Drake #Equation is a probabilistic argument used to estimate the number of active, communicative #Extraterrestrial #Civilizations in the Milky Way Galaxy.

    It was formulated in 1961 by Frank Drake as a way to stimulate scientific dialogue at the first scientific meeting on the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI).

  28. Yellowmead stone circle near Sheepstor in Devon, England is a concentric Bronze Age stone circle consisting of four stone rings set into each other. The largest is 20 meters wide and the smallest 6 meters. It is located on Yellowmead Down.

    The circles once surrounded a burial mound, although this is now barely visible. To the south-west some possible rows of stones branch off, crossed by a post-medieval leat that once served a nearby tin works.

    The site was excavated and restored by Rev. H Breton in 1921. In 2008, geophysical surveys and a small excavation were carried out to determine if the 1921 restoration had been done accurately (it was) and to find out if they were buried additional elements in the peat. Fallen stones were found in line with some of the stone rows, suggesting that further features may lie downstream below the slope.

  30. Great African empires

    In this episode of “Lumumba’s Africa,” Professor PLO #Lumumba explores the #historical significance of the #African continent, which was the cradle of some of the greatest #empires, including the #Egyptian, #Songhai, #Benin, and #Yoruba empires, among others across the Mother Continent. While these #civilizations flourished, they suffered devastating impacts due to slavery and #colonization. However, some of these #kingdoms, such as the #Zulu Kingdom, #Oyo, and the #Waganda Kingdom, still exist today. The professor #emphasizes the importance of keeping the #legacies of #African kingdoms alive through discussion and #storytelling, as this will help unite Africa and contribute to a brighter future for the continent.

A sharing #meeting focused on blending #Chinese traditional #culture with the Grand Canal took place in #Yangzhou, a city renowned for its #cultural #heritage. #Scholars, #artists, and online #influencers gathered to discuss the Grand Canal’s #historical and cultural significance, and how it inspires artistic creation. #Speakers emphasized the canal’s role in grain transportation, irrigation, and uniting regional #civilizations throughout #history. cnbusinessforum.com/reviving-t
