Today in class we took notes.  You've us a hint that we would be having a pop quiz on the seas that surround Greece but u never gave us hints so it is probably next class.  we learned about Draco and Solon's.  Draco (621 BCE) that all rich and poor are under the law, death is punishment for crimes , and debt slavery is ok.  Solon's  (594 BCE) outlaws debt slavery, all Athenian citizens can speak, and any citizen can press charges against wrongdoing.
Draconian means harsh punishments.
Agora means where all the people met in Greece to get together.
Arete means to do excellence in everything you do.
Acropolis is a secure area.
Calisthenics ( 500 BCE) allowed all citizens to submit laws for debate.  He created a council go 5 hundred, leading to democracy, only free adults made proper owners born in Athens, and no women, slaves, and "foreigners".
Hippias- tyrant who ruled from 527 to 510 BCE
his brother was murdered and his rule became harsh.  He ended up getting expelled from Athens (ostracized).  He wanted revenge so went to the Persian king Darius.  Calisthenics had support from the Athenians.  Isagoras became in charge. he ostracized Calisthenics but Calisthenics supporters threw the first revolt against the ruler.  They reaped isagoros on acropolis for 2 days and the 3rd day Feld and was banished .  THIS HAPPENED IN 508 BCE

Yesterday in class we didn't do much. We went over one of are old test that we had.  I got a 78% o it so I think I did ok on it.  After that we took the test that we would of took if we would of voted to have a test Friday.  It was that hard but I didn't want to risk having a test and the failing it and my C go down.  After we finished it you gave us the answers so we can review for the exam.  I really want to get my grade up for western civ because it is at a 79.12% and I really want a B so I can get all B's on my report card.

Yesterday in class we went over the power point and had someone in the class take notes on the board and we would all copy it.  I found it a lot more interesting then the other power points we have been doing because it talked about how they started to care about art, mathematics, and literature again. And also starting to look back at Rome and Greece and see how they did things.  It talked about a lady that was very Richard care about art and a lot of other things.  She would pay the artist to paint her or paint something she would want and there would put her in the back round.  For examples she asked Leonardo da Vinci t paint the nativity and put her in the back ground. If it wasn't for her we would not ave know a lot of these artist would have even existed.
