Reading
The languages spoken by early Europeans are still shrouded in mystery. There is
no linguistic continuity between the languages of Old Europe (a term sometimes
used for Europe between 7000 and 3000 B.C.) and the languages of the modem
world, and we cannot yet translate the Old European script, Scholars have
deciphered other ancient languages, such as Sumerian, Akkadian, and Babylonian,
which used the cuneiform script, because of the fortuitous discovery of bilingual
inscriptions, When cuneiform tablets were first discovered in the eighteenth
century, scholars could not decipher them. Then inscriptions found in baa at the
end of the eighteenth century provided a link: these inscriptions were written in
cuneiform and in two other ancient languages, Old Persian and New Elamite--
languages that had already been deciphered. It took several decades, but scholars
eventually translated the ancient cuneiform script via the more familiar Old Persian
language.

Lichens are famous for their ability to survive ~ water shortage. When water is
scarce (as is often the case on a mountain), lichens may become dormant and
remain in that condition for prolonged periods of time. Some lichens can even
grow where there is no rain at all, surviving on only occasional dew--the moisture
that condenses on the surface of the plants at night. And unlike most other plants,
lichens are little affected by the strong ultraviolet rays in the mountains.

There are two main hypotheses when it comes to explaining the emergence of
modern humans. The ‘Out of Africa’ theory holds that homo sapiens burst onto the
scene
as a new species around 150,000 to 200,000 years ago in Africa and subsequently
replaced archaic humans such as the Neandertals. The other model, known as
multi-
(5)regional evolution or regional continuity, posits far more ancient and diverse
roots for our
kind. Proponents of this view believe that homo sapiens arose in Africa some 2
million
years ago and evolved as a single species spread across the Old World, with
populations
Of these two models, Out of Africa, which was originally developed based on
fossil
(10)evidence, and supported by much genetic research, has been favored by the
majority of
evolution scholars. The vast majority of these genetic studies have focused on
DNA from
living populations, and although some small progress has been made in recovering

6.pacific ocean
Next to its sheer size, the profound isolation of its many small islands is the most
distinctive feature of the Pacific Ocean. Over 25,000 islands are scattered across
the surface of the Pacific, more than in all the other oceans combined, but their
land area adds up to little more than 125,000 square kilometers, about the size of
New York State, and their inhabitants total less than two million people, about a
quarter of the number that live in New York City. The oceanic islands of the
Pacific are some of the most isolated places on Earth. Many are uninhabitable, by
virtue of their small size and particular characteristics, but even the most favored
are very isolated fragments of land, strictly circumscribed by the ocean, strictly
limited in terms of the numbers of people they can support. This basic fact of
environmental circumstance has been the most pervasive influence in determining
the social arrangements, and cultural practices of the people that settled in the
Pacific Islands.
