1 Name: Due Date: Unit II: The Classical Period, 1000 B.C.E. 500 C.E., Uniting Large Regions & Chapter 2 Reading Guide Classical Civilization: CHINA UNIT SUMMARY The major development during the classical period was the formation of large regional civilizations in China, India, the Mediterranean, and the Middle East. These areas had by far the largest concentration of population. Furthermore, the influence these civilizations extended into surrounding regions outside their direct control. Much of the development of each civilization was separate and the establishment of distinctive cultural and institutional patterns was a key legacy of this period. One of the triggers for the clear transition into the classical period was the introduction of iron tools and weapons. With this development each classical civilization developed its own social structure, religion, political system, system of science, and style of art. While the introduction of iron in the classical period, the period itself did not witness sweeping technological developments. Patriarchal culture prevailed with a new emphasis on the respect for the achievement of old age. INTRODUCTION (P ) 1. World History dating methods can be confusing at first. Notice the time period at the top of the page. At first glance, it seems the time period only covers 500 years. On 2 nd glance it seems like the dates are getting smaller (1000 to 500) whereas our dates increase over time (ex ). To make matters more confusing, APWH uses BCE and CE (Before Common Era and Common Era) while in the West most people use BC and AD (Before Christ and Anno Domini Latin for in the Year of Our Lord as Christians believe Jesus Christ is alive in Heaven today, ex AD). BC/AD is a common dating method in the West and around the world but it refers directly to one religion Christianity. Most historians have moved to BCE/CE to get away from referring to a single religion but it means THE SAME THING. BCE = BC CE = AD Now think of a number line with negative and positive numbers The distance between -4 to 4 is CE BCE How much time does the Classical Period cover? 2. Examine the title of this unit on p. 30. What pattern will occur around the world during this period? (In the fourth edition, this is "Directions, Diversities, and Declines." 3. Examine the maps on page 33. What is the major difference between the two maps? (4th ed. does not have this map.) 4. Now for the tough one: what similarities do you see between political units between the two maps? (4th ed. does not have this map.)
2 5. Looking at the bottom map, what area s political units are the most isolated? (4th ed. does not have this map, but you can still infer.) 6. Brainstorm one positive benefit from being isolated and one negative aspect. A. Positive B. Negative 7. List two ways nomadic groups interacted with classical civilizations. 8. Explain what syncretism means. (note you ll see this word throughout the year) TRIGGERS FOR CHANGE (P ) 9. Examine the timeline at the top of the page. Notice the column under 250 BCE. The Decline of the Roman Republic is listed as 133 BUT it has the abbreviation ff. behind it. Now look under the 1 CE column. Notice that the Roman Empire begins in 27 CE. What do you think was happening between 133 BCE and 27 CE in Rome? (HINT: looking up the abbreviation ff. will help) (Our edition does not use ff., but most texts do.) 10. In this section it states that the classical civilizations were larger than the river valley civilizations. What technological development led to this? 11. Besides new trade links, give two specific examples of new developments that helped unite territories into empires. THE BIG CHANGES (P ) 12. Your text states that patterns established in the classical period still have impact on today s world. China and India are used as examples. China s government successfully forced its people to accept population controls in the 20 th century (laws limiting how many children a family could have) while India s government failed to do the same. What inference can you draw about China s government and society during the CLASSICAL period based on this fact? What inference can you make about India s government during the classical period? (HINT: think patterns and NO, China did not limit its population during the classical period) 13. What was the first major change that occurred between the river valley civilizations and classical civilizations? 14. What classical civilization had the largest trading area? 15. Flip back to page 33 and examine the bottom map. Look at the civilization you listed under #14 above and explain WHY it makes geographic sense that this civilization had the largest trading area. (You do not need the map to answer this question.) CONTINUITY 16. How was the classical period similar to the river valley civilization period? List continuities (what stayed the same) between the periods below.
3 IMPACT OF DAILY LIFE: OLD AGE - (4TH ED DOES NOT HAVE THIS ARTICLE; YOU CAN STILL INFER) 17. What role did the elderly play in illiterate societies? 18. How were Chinese and Mediterranean (think Greece and Rome) cultures SIMILAR in their attitude toward the elderly? 19. How were they different? 20. Which culture do you think focused more on physical beauty of people? (NOTE: you ll see this reflected in art) 21. Examine the two cartoons below. Label one West (ex. Rome and Greece) and the other East (ex. China) based on what you just read. Then explain in a sentence WHY you think you are right.
4 Chapter 2 Reading Guide Classical Civilization: CHINA Using the map on page 36, draw the boundaries of the Zhou, Qin, and Han Empires and label each accordingly. Draw in the Great Wall and label. Label the Huanghe River (a.k.a. Yellow River) Label the Yangtze River Label Korea Label Mongolia 22.
