    Hi Claudia,

    Wow, your version of the Epic of Gilgamesh came out amazing. I had a great time watching it. You made your part of the Epic come alive with the costume and theater prompts. Thank you for sharing it here in the blog.

Chapter 8 I was disappointed and revolted

Chapter 8 I was disappointed to read   about the change of women’s position in Chinese society between the Tang dynasty and the Song dynasty. In the Tang dynasty elite Chinese women had more ability to participate in social life than before. This was partly under the influence of steppe nomads, whose women had relative freedom. However in the song dynasty, patriarchy reasserted control over women. Its essence was the foot binding of elite women. This caused painful fractures and deformities (Staryer 331) .

However, once they became domesticated they became available in Africa. The proximity of North Africa to Eurasia allowed contact with Mesopotamia, which created cross pollination of their cultures. In addition, coastal North Africa was part of the Roman Empire and was used to produce crops, with slave labor. Camels came to Africa via Arabia and affected the development of a pastoral economy in North Africa and trans-Saharan commerce. The East African coast was an important port for trade between Africa and Eurasia. The Americas, on the other hand, were isolated from Africa and Eurasia. The only domesticated animals were llamas and alpacas in the Andes Mountains.  Therefore, there were no animals to pull carts or plows. Being lightly settled, there was very little interactions between different cultures. Also the geography was not s...
