Messegers from the past ! We read informative and enjoyable two text this week. When a German couple hiking at 10,500 feet in Italy, they found a freze-dried body under the ıce.They called to Ice men. The body did not decay because ice provide to good insulation . Corpse belongs to 2000 B.C. It is very important because it gives a lot of information about past .For instance , German couple not only found corpse but also find leather clothes , flint lighter,bone ax ,arrow, and arrow repair kit . We can understand them ,mankind could hunt 4000 years ago and also they could use fire.Body is surprised me because there are two big tattoo.Other text was about Ötzi.He shared same story with Ice men but Otzi is older than Ice man .He belongs to 5000 years ago.but relics are almost the same such as ax ,arrow .But differently from Iceman, someone attacked to Otzi twice.We do not know why did the ıce man die but otzi was killed .
YanıtlaSilThe text we have read is so effective. May be I have liked it because of the fact that it has made me believe in miracles. Thanks to this text, I have obtained information about the life styles of ancient people. I have developed my capability of commenting. That's because I have tried to consider how the ice man died. The corpse of the ice man belonged to ancient time. The corpse was found by a German couple who were walking. There were something with the corpse also: A knife made by stone, a wooden bag, a quill, repairing outfit. In fact, there can be comments just analyzing the tools. The corpse must have lived in a central area or in a place that had dominating power. He can't have lived in a scattered settlement as Egyptians or the people of Mesopotamia did. Philologysts have investigated the language of the corpse, results have shown that the language he spoke was similar to European. It's hard to comment on the corpse's death. He can't have died because of the cold weather, he had got leather clothes and shoes. He can't have died because of the famine, he could have had the power to hunt. Perhaps, he felt sick, he can have been killed by his enemies. He was buried with his goods as in old customs. Briefly, I have been influenced by this topic which has got power both in the past and today. The writer has chosen a fascinating topic.
YanıtlaSilFirst of all ,I learned something about "A Messenger from Past.".I think this text is very different because we learned interesting things because of this text.According to text, the Ice Man was discovered in Europe by hikers.The Ice Man lived 4,000 years ago. The Ice Man’s body had been frozen for 4,000 years.In addition,he was tattooed on his back and behind his knee.His clothing was remnants of leather garments,adn boots stuffed with straw.His equipments were a bronze az,a bow and a quiver,and flint lighter and kindling,and an arrow repair kit.Also,I think he was a farming culture. Scientists have not examined the Ice Man yet to get genetic information.In my opinion,he freezed freezing weather,and the trench gave the Ice Man shelter,or he had a grass mat to keep him warm;however, he may have been in the trench so long that he died of the cold anyway,but scientists are not sure how the Ice Man died.To summarize,in September, the well-preserved, freeze-dried body of a 4,000-year-old man was discovered. His body and the everyday gear he had with him may provide important information about his biology and his society. Furthermore, since the glacier he was found in is melting, more Ice Men may be found.
YanıtlaSilWe read two text last week."A Messenger from the past" and "Otzi's Last Days:Glacier Man May Have Been Attacked Twice" Both of them mentioned about frozen mummy.First ice man was founded by german
YanıtlaSilcouple at 10,500 feet in Italy.They did not find only ice mummy. They found arrows,pouch,flint lighters,genuine lighter,guiver.The mummy and all of them were protected from external factors.It is also 4,000 year old corpse.It means the ice man lived 4,000 years
ago.For this reason it is a messenger from the past.There are some theories about the ice man's death.It maybe died from injuries or freezing weather,but according to the tips it didn't die with starving due to berries into pouch.Secondly,we read text about
other ice man.According to passage it is older than first one due to fact that researches have shown second ice man is 5,000 years old.There are some differences in between of them.Otzi lived in neolithic age but other one lived in bronze age.Otzi was murdered due to fact that it was injred armpit.Finally,both of them were
provided with under the ice.Both of them are also too old,and they are a messenger from the past.It makes them spectacular.
We read two taxts about freezen body.I realized when I saw that the official text of this text interesting and fun.The man who walk off toward the mountains.The man was well dressed in insulated clothing and equipped with tools needed to survive tke Alpine climate.However,he can not return because he died 4,000-year-old.He was discovered by a German couple hiking at 10,500 feet in te Italian Tyrol near the Austrian border.Do you know why and how the deteriaration of the corpses?Researcers have done a lot of research on this topic for many years.We were supposed to do inference to us by our teacher about this topic in the class.To give an example;If the men was tattooed on his back and behind his knee,I think tattoo was common event during the man and the man who took tolls to protect weild animals next to him.If the man wore remnants of leather garments and boots that had been stuffed with straw for insulation,I think during the man was very cold and the amn had been stuffed with straw in boots not to freeze from cold weather.It was nice to expect from us for doing inference.
