SOST Maori and European Population Graph

4/11/19, Monday

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. What does the Graph show us?
     The graph shows us that the population of the Maori people is slowly declining while the Europeans are slowly growing throughout the years.

2. Why do you think the numbers of Maori change?
     It may be caused by strong earthquakes and wars. It is also very hard to survive because of the tribes fighting each other.

3. Why do you think the numbers of Europeans change?
    I think it's because of their economy. Europeans were able to trade a lot with people in another country this can be the cause of their growing population more material and food made them survive longer.

SOST Essay Writing

09/26/19, Thursday
Describe ways in which technology has changed over time. Explain how it is different from the technology we use today.
Technology has changed over time over time. In this essay, I will discuss the technology used by Romans, Egyptians and Cavemen. The technological advances include the creation of hieroglyphics, aqueducts and stone tools. These examples are gonna show how technology has advanced over time and how it’s different from our present technology.

Communication and writing are very important for humans a done of the earliest communication and writing is the hieroglyphics. You can see Hieroglyphics across Eqypt, the Rosetta stone that is filled with Hieroglyphics was found in 1799. This is important because without all of this we won't have a way to communicate and understand each other, hieroglyphics mainly used pictures as a way of telling what it is instead of the letters that we used today. Hieroglyphics used pictures to represent a letter while we use letters themselves.

   Aqueducts were built by the ancient Romans to deal with plumbing and to be able to get water. The ancient Rome aqueducts were big and spread out tunnels were used to deliver water through lines and bridges and then all across the valley. Compared to the modern plumbing which is smaller and could travel across everything, the modern plumbing was more complex with two separate subsystems one that delivers freshwater and one that takes wastewater out. We can see the difference between Ancient Rome's aqueducts and modern plumbing.

     Tools are helpful and can help us survive through tough times. The cavemen were able to develop tools that made them much powerful and live a longer life with the tools they made. They mainly used stones and sticks, they sharpen both the stones and sticks to make a weapon that could pierce through the skin. The modern tools we have today can be made out of different kinds of metals and are stronger and we have more materials we can use, we developed new long-ranged weapons like guns. Over time we developed different kinds of weapons and tools that helped us against predators.

This essay showed how technology evolved and the difference between modern technology and past technology. Hieroglyphics developed with a simple more version but many words were created. Aqueducts evolved to smaller and much more complex routes. Tools were made with stronger and longer-lasting materials. These are the ways technology evolved to what it is now.
