Western Civilization

Today in western Civilization we talked about settlements some more. We watched a video that had an author named John talking about ancient civilizations that had ways to become successful such as farming and domesticating animals such as pigs, cows, llamas, cattle, sheep, goats,and camels. The elephant was t hard to train and took 22 months to have a baby making the elephant useless. They are also so big so they couldn't be tamed and then trained to use there mass to carry and push big items. The animals also need grass to gaze on so they had to be moved quite a bit. That must have to be a pain but they had a lot of benefits for there society.
