Very few people at the time of Columbus actually believed that the Earth was flat. Anyone standing on a mountain top would have seen this not to be true. In fact, I think it was generally accepted by everyone that the world was round during the time of Jesus' life. So why did anyone ever get the idea that Columbus was trying to prove that the world was round?

What does this say about other areas of history that might be obscured???

"How have various cultures addressed the theme of feminine power? Cite and describe at least 1 work of art from 3 different cultures or periods studied this semester."

So this is for a Hum 1 researched essay. I've looked and haven't found any helpful info yet. I can choose from Paleolithic, Neolithic, Ancient Egypt, Aegean, Greek, Roman, Minoan, Aztec, Late Middle Ages, etc. So any helpful site suggestions or anything?

I had family killed in a camp and they were not Jewish, that's why the question came to mind. I moved to the USA and whenever the subject somehow fall to WWII nobody knows that besides the Jews, about 220,000 Sinti and Roma were murdered in the Holocaust (some estimates are as high as 800,000), between a quarter to a half of the European population. Other groups deemed "racially inferior" or "undesirable": Poles (6 million killed, of whom 3 million were Catholic/Christian, and the rest Jewish), Serbs (estimates vary between 500,000 and 1.2 million killed, mostly by Croat Ustaše), Soviet military prisoners of war and civilians in occupied territories including Russians and other East Slavs, the mentally or physically disabled, homosexuals, Blacks, Jehovah's Witnesses, Atheists,[citation needed] Communists and political dissidents, trade unionists, Freemasons, Eastern Christians, and Catholic and Protestant clergy, were also persecuted and killed. Why?

A lot closer than some people think. It was really Roosevelt's reforms that saved the system from itself and averted total catastrophe. You've got to remember, it wasn't only people's money that went down the drain in 1929; it was also their whole traditional system of values. Americans had learned to celebrate their society as an earthly way station to paradise, with all the cherished virtues of hard work and thrift as their tickets to security, success and happiness. Then suddenly, in just a few days, those tickets were canceled and apparently unredeemable, and the bottom fell out of everything. The American dream became a nightmare overnight for the overwhelming majority of citizens, and the pleasant, open-ended world they knew suddenly began to close in on them as their savings disappeared behind the locked doors of insolvent banks, their jobs vanished in closed factories and their homes and farms were lost to foreclosed mortgages and forcible eviction. Suddenly the smokestacks were cold and lifeless, the machinery ground to a halt and a chill seemed to hang over the whole country.
