I. Chapter 1: New World Beginnngs
Lesson 1
A. Main Idea
The main idea of lesson one is that the Pangaea had separated large
chunks of itself to form other subcontinents such as the Americas.
Lesson 2
B. Main Idea
The main idea of lesson two is the immigration of the Eurasians to
Northern and Southern Americas.
1. Supporting Fact
During the Ice Age, the water level had dropped as glaciers formed,
which had exposed a land bridge that had connected Eurasia to North
America. This bridge was located near the Bering Sea between Siberia and
Alaska.
2. Supporting Fact
As the Ice Age ended, sea level rose again, which had overwhelmed the
land bridge to the point where it had become difficult to cross the icy bridge.
Instead of attempting to go back, they had adapted to their surroundings as
the Ice Age had also melted the valleys which made travel easier on American
soil. Two civilizations were born after the end of the Ice Age.
a. Detail
The Incas were an advanced Southern American civilization that had
developed techniques in the forms of agriculture and terrace farming.
b. Detail
The Aztecs were a Native American civilization that had controlled
present day Mexico and had been known for their advances in mathematics
and literature, as well as their human sacrificial ceremonies.
