The northern tribes used bones and deer antlers to make knives, scrapers, awls, fishing tools, whistles, and pendants. The first tribes denpended on agriculture were those that lived on the Atlantic Costal Plain. They learned how to make pottery and cloth. The cloth was woven with thread made from soft layers of splint baskets. They made musical instruments like pipers, rattles, drums, nd they were played during ruitals and ceremonies dances. They built two types of houses, long houses, and wigwams. The first type was formed by bending poles into a cone or dome shape and by tying the poles together with vines. The frame was covered with woven mats, bark, or hide . These people grew corn, squash, beans, pumpkins, and tobacco.
| In the industry of hand crafted goods their pottery showed various types of patterns carved or painted onto them, even stones had fine pictures painted onto them. They usually wrote in a special ink, they had various forms of writing like hieroglyphics, and self-explanatory characters. They usually carved these onto animal bones or tortoise shells. Architecture was built into houses made of wood or carved out of the earth into rows. They listened to folk music and palace music. With their practice in bronze they made fine musical instruments, people engaged into music but they were divided into 3 sections; Wu, music slavery, and Gu.
Some of the creek indian art was made of wood (wood carvings). Clay was another natural resource that they used (pottery). When english (Britains) started taking land they migrated and had to use beads. They also weaved baskets and put art on these baskets.
Cherokee women also helped with the farming duties by weaving baskets for the farmers to put the crops in and store them. These baskets were made so strongly bonded together that they could hold water and even cook the food that was caught. The Cherokee’s also made clay bowls found from clay that would be collected from rivers nearby the Cherokee land. In order to the make the clay bowls the would lite a fire to the clay to harden the clay and then shape the in a way in which they wanted the bowls to
The Sumerians were skilled artisans by making small seals, pottery, jewelry, vases, reliefs and statues. They created their art out of clay, stone, precious gems, gold, silver, leather and ivory. 5 With their vast assortment of artistic ability one example of their expertise is the musical instrument that has a meticulously carved and painted bulls head on to the sound box of a lyre. The Bulls head is a sacred symbol to the Sumerians that was thought to have supernatural powers.
Ojibway Indian men usually wore breechcloths and leggings. The women wore dresses and kept their hair in neat braids. Their shoes were called moccasins. They were made out of deer or moose hide. Customarily, they wore leather headbands with feathers in the back. The Ojibway Indians made pictures, belts, purses, and other objects out of beads. They loved to use wampum beads in their artwork. Wampum beads are purple and white beads made from shells. The Ojibway Indians make beadart by sewing the beads onto leather so they can be placed individually or sewn into strips. They make the strips by stitching the beads into a string. This is usually done by hand or sometimes with a bowloom. Beadart takes years to master and is very time consuming for the Ojibway Indians. The Ojibway also made dream catchers out of sticks and feathers. They believed that the dream catchers would protect them from bad dreams.
First, let’s discuss how the ancient Indians used the natural resources in their environment to develop their civilization. The ancient Indian civilizations first flourished around the Indus River basin. The Indus River provided fertile soil for farming and water for irrigation systems.
Crafts included the scribes, artisans, artists, and poetic writers. Babylonians, as a whole, were intelligent people, good soldiers, keen traders, and very skillful craftsmen (Cottrell, Page 175). They were able to develop these skills because they enjoyed a Golden age of peace, prosperity, and freedom under the Babylonian Government, but more specifically Hammurabi’s Code. The code of laws put together by Hammurabi gave the Babylonians a very steady environment with an efficient taxing system, and personal affairs were took care of quite well (Ancient History Encyclopedia). As a supplement to the freedom, peace, and prosperity that the Hammurabi’s Code offered, the Babylonians were focused on their religion and worshipping many gods. They would have sacred buildings for certain gods or they were represented through objects. “Babylonia represents a religious and architectural element related to the Kassites cultural background which they integrated into the Babylonian architectural tradition” (Malko, Page 161). The religion that the Babylonians followed was also displayed through literature in poems, hymns, stories, and
they used symbols that represented traded goods and livestock. The Sumerians used writing to keep records and to keep their stories.
The first tools developed during the Paleolithic Era were made from chipped stones, wood and bone, and "nets from plant fibers and animal sinew" (Holt, Rinehart, & Wilson, n.d.: 2). The Neolithic Era brought forth greater specialization. People began to make chisels, drills, and saws to address specific needs and also polished stones to create sharper and more defined points (Holt, Rinehart, & Wilson, n.d.: 2). Language scholars trace the development of the first forms of systematized language to this era: "The crucial evolutionary development that led to the burst in creativity in the Neolithic was the emergence of human language as a method for integrating across cognitive modules" (MacWhinney 2005: 383). During this era, the use of stones began to have a utilitarian purpose in a manner that showed more sophisticated thinking.
Over thousands of years, jewelry has been worn by many people. Whether to show beauty, wealth or belief there is no era that can compare to the jewels of Ancient Egypt. At the beginning of the kingdom, precious stones and metals were discovered and worn like never seen before. Unfortunately, the remaining Egyptian jewelry that is displayed in Museums today is only a small fraction of what actually existed due to grave robbers. Questions such as how jewelry started, how it was made and worn, what the symbolization of jewelry was and who were the people that wore jewelry in Ancient Egypt will be answered.
Copper was used in limited quantities for beads and simple tools, but most implements were knapped from stone. Palettes made of stone were used for grinding eye paint. Small sculptures and figurines were either carved from ivory and bone or modelled in clay.
The Indus valley civilizations was an intriguing and sophisticated ancient culture and also a major contributor in the development of what later came to be known as “Hinduism” . The civilization was founded “accidentally” in the 19th century when the British engineers were searching for ballast for a railway line in north-western India (which is now modern day Pakistan) and found the remains of what seemed to be an ancient city which was only known only to locals until then. In the early 20th century, when other similar sites were uncovered, archaeologists realized the significance of the discovery, which turned out to be one of the most prospering civilizations of the ancient world. It is called The Indus Valley Civilization because most of its settlements are situated along the banks of the Indus River .The largest and most important of this civilization were its two prospering cities known as Mohenjo-Daro and Harappa. These names are of post–Indus origin as they were given with reference to the towns built much later on the ruins of these ancient cities. During their prosperous period,, Mohenjo-Daro and Harappa had a population of around 40-50 thousand, which was a lot by ancient standards. Both of these cities were highly organized and strategically planned, and displayed remarkably similar features during their excavation. Given the structure of the cities, archaeologists suggest that there may have been a central authority for code enforcement and the Harappan
