The Maintenance of the Imperial Presence in Nubia and Western Asia during the 18th and 19th Dynasties of the New Kingdom in Egypt
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing the Egyptian imperial presence in Nubia and Western Asia during the 18th and 19th Dynasties. The 18th and 19th Dynasties in Egypt during the time of the New Kingdom were known as the times when the pharaohs gained, and lost, a great deal of land. When the land was gained it was from the conquest of the regions of Nubia and Asia. The military regime which was established in the 18th Dynasty was reported to treat the Nubian and Asian leaders and captives with a great deal of cruelty in their efforts to expand and unite the kingdom of Egypt and during this time a great deal of wealth was transferred from the regions of Nubia and Asia to the Egyptian capital. Most of the land was lost during the end of the 18th Dynasty and regained during the beginning of the 19th Dynasty. Although areas of Nubia and Asia were once again conquered and the wealth was transferred to central Egypt, the long reign and alliances formed by Ramesses II brought a long era of peace to the region and reports of the cruelty to the Nubians and Asians are not as prevalent during this time. The peace did not continue however as continued conflict with the Hittites and other tribes continued and once again the regions were lost near the end of the 19th Dynasty. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

The Origins and Distinctions of First Cities from Settlements
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 15 page paper discussing the origin and distinction of the first cities from communities. There are certain elements which distinguish a settlement from a city and it is the discovery of these elements during excavations of ancient sites that anthropologists and sociologists can determine the timeline of the development of cities from communities. The size of the center does not seem to relate to whether the inhabitants lived in a city or a community, but rather it is the structure of the center than matters. Cities differentiate from communities in that they have centralized structures which indicate that they had a central political system for organization. Another important aspect of cities is that they are distinct in the consistency of the type and materials used in the architecture which indicates that the same group of people, specialists and artisans, constructed the buildings which would indicate the presence of a division of labor. Socially, theories of the formation of cities range from the need for a centralized religious, political or authoritarian group or the need for the organization of irrigation in regards to the betterment of the agricultural society. Regardless of their structure and their development cities are also known to be more “organic” in that the people who would not always agree socially or religiously still worked as a whole for the necessity of need for the works and labors of others. Communities were considered more naturally “mechanical” as the people worked together as a whole and remained together because of family or kinship ties in addition to having the same beliefs, rituals and symbols.

Both civilizations also developed highly accurate calendars to aid in their yearly rituals and lives.

Politically, the Inca had a much more diverse political system which was dependent upon trade and the acceptance of many independently run cities which all served under the “Inca”.
