ORATOR

As a Roman military and political leader who played a critical role in a transformation of the Roman Republic into the Roman Empire,Gaius Julius Caesar had been choosed by me as my example for a good ancient orator.

Reign	October 49 BC – 15 March 44 BC (as dictator and/or consul)
Full name	Gaius Julius Caesar
Born	13 July 100 BC or 102 BC
Birthplace	Subura, Rome
Died	15 March 44 BC
Place of death	Curia of Pompey, Rome
Consort	Cornelia Cinna minor 84–68 BC Pompeia 68–63 BC Calpurnia Pisonis 59–44 BC
Offspring	Julia Caesaris 85/84–54 BC Caesarion 47–30 BC Augustus 63 BC–AD 14 (grand-nephew, posthumously adopted as Caesar's son in 44 BC)
Royal House	Julio-Claudian
Father	Gaius Julius Caesar
Mother	Aurelia Cotta

Julius caesar began extensive reforms of Roman sosiety and goverment after assuming control of goverment.
Havealy centralised the bureaucracy of the Republic and eventualy proclaimed "dictator in perpetuity".

Much of Caesar's life is known on his military campaigns, and another contemporary souces such like the letters and speeches on his political rival Cicero,the historical writings of Sallust, and the poetry of Catullus. Later historian such as Appian, Suetonius, Plutarch, Cassius Dio and Strabo had recorded mare details of his life.

GrEaT Wall of China

Assalamualaikum and I hope all of you that read our blog happy always..

For ancient megacity for this week topic I choose about China that famous with the GREAT WALL..

In Chinese language of Great wall is Changcheng means long city/fortress. Long of the wall is 10,000..They built the wall between the 15th century BC and 16th century

The aims to built for protect the northern borders of the Chinese Empire from Xiangno attack during various successive dynastines..

The most comprehensive archeological survey,using advanced technologies,has concluded that the entire Great wall,with all of its branches,stretches for 8851.8km.This is made up of 6259.6Km of section of actual wall,359.7Km of trenches and 2232.5 of natural defensive barners such as hill and rivers..

To built this wall the king mist transporting the large quantity of materials required for construction was difficult,so builder tried to use local source such as stone from mountain ranges,rammed earth for construction the plain..

The Characteristics of the wall is Ming Dynasty bricks wereheavily used in many areas of wall such tile,lime,and stone..

But until now,the mystery is many scientist try to see from space this wall,but visible??why I do not know and come join together to think about that...

the ancient megAcity

This is for our assignment...

first I want to introduce about Angkor Wat.

The word of Angkor Wat is derived Sanskrit,an ancient Indian language of "Nagara"which means city -Angkor Wat literally means "City of Temple"..

For Bayon is well known and richly decorated Khmer temple at Angkor Wat.The Bayon's is most distinctive feature is the maltitude of serene and massive stone faces in the many towers which jut out from the upper terrace cluster around the central park..

Khmer enemies is KHIEU SAMPHON..

Reason for the fall of the Khmer empire because of Introduction of Theravada Buddhism in 13th century to the Khmer had turned out to hurt sublimely the basic foundation of the Angkor Empire.Therarada Buddhism taught the people to seek self-enlightment ,abandon worldly things and discourage superstition belief which directly or indirectly means all deities and all evils.The sovereign of the Angkorian monarch as a god-king or dewa-raja was basically challenged..

Angkor Wat Survive by collecting water from rivers for agriculture as well as draining and reserving water from the monsoon season. Storing the water helped as the area only had two seasons,dry and rainy. During the rainy season,water would be collected to prevent flooding and to provide irrigation for crops during the dry seasons..

Until now,have people do not know who the person which built Angkor Wat. Actually the person who built Angkor Wat is King Suryavarman II and dedicated to Vishnu(Hindu)..

Next,Chou Ta-kuan is a Chinese Official person who sent by his emperor on a reporting mission to the Kingdom of Khmer..

What contributed the rise of Angkor. First the adaption of Indian doctrines of Dewa-Raja or God king. Strategic location for example sailing upstream from the Mekong River..

The Khmer cultivate rice two or three times in a year,resulting in its prosperity..

ART

Assalamualaikum and hello to all...

post for this semester i guess..

This week i had been told that i had to post a new topic which is my

favourite topic, ART.

Art is the process of arranging elements in a way that appeals

to the senses or emotions.It can be express in eitheir in eotion or even in physical movement..

Do you know that every single movement that we did is also been classify as an art.

The definition is hardly to be said..many professional had tried to find the definition of art,finally art seen as "a special faculty of the human mind to be classified with religion and science".

There are many type of art but the thing that i want to share with you all today are about painting.

Painting is a mode of expression and the form of nemorous.

Paintings can be naturalistic and representational photographic, abstract, be loaded with narrative content, symbolism, emotion or be political in nature.Color and tone are the essence of painting as pitch and rhythm are of music.

Nevertheless, the art painting is the most beautiful art in this world.
So, start from now try to love and to learn about it because every time
you try to learn it you will get to see the art of it..
So, enjoy...bye2..

B-BOYs

yo-yo!!! what's up everybody.. Now my turn to post our blog and i will write about B- boys.. B boys or b girls is a person devoted to hip hop culture, more specificially b boyying/break dance.Crazy leg or rock steady crew explains the origin of the term. The word b boys originated from kool herc b-boys and b-girls (break boys,break girls). Although numerous b-boys have suggested that the term refers to the break on a record, Kool Herc says is not case b-boys that break,it didnt't come from breaks on the record but it come from this man he broke,he went to a point breaking point...

There are many different style to other person with same dancers. They will combine their style with their own knowledge to create bombastics style. This is because,to approach their identity,they must do different style and different dance to get attention from other people. On Break dance,all parts of the body give "power" to the dancers especially head.. ok that it about B boys and B girls dancers.. ok bye and assalamualaikum..
