Test day

Today is February 18, I am now 15 years of age and I am writing this in recommendation to the test that we took. I think I did very good, but usually when I think I do good I may not. Although this time I feel like I did. I worked on an assignment today during class which was to post notes to my blog after reading a certain amount of pages.

  • barbarian- term used to describe the distinctive way of life based on farming, warfare, and tribal organization that became widespread in Europe beginning around 2500 b.c.
  • megaliths - massive rough-cut stones used to construct monuments and tombs
  • tribe- a social and political unit consisting of a group of communities held together by common interests, traditions and real or mythical ties of kinship. 
  • stonehenge- the most famous of megalithic structures was built by a farming and trading people in the west of england
