The Green Corn Ceremony is a multifaceted celebration of new beginnings. Also known as the Great Peace Ceremony, it is a celebration of thanksgiving to Hsaketumesa (Breath Maker) for the first fruits of the harvest, as well as New Year celebrations.
Explanation:
First day
On the first day of the ceremony, people set up their camps in one of the ceremonial squares. This is followed by the celebration of the remnants of last year's harvest, after which all the men of the community begin to fast. On this night, a social topa dance is held, unique to the cultures of Muskogee and the Southeast.
Second day
Before dawn on the second day, four shrub-covered tents are erected along the edges of the ceremonial ground, one in each of the sacred directions. For the first dance of the day, the women of the community participate in a ribbon dance or women's dance, which involves attaching rattles and shells to the feet, performing a cleansing dance with special ribbon sticks in preparation for the ceremony. place for renewal ceremony. The ceremonial fire is lit in the middle of four logs laid crosswise so that they point to the four sides.

The fire (which has been re-lit and maintained with a special medicine by a medicine man or "Heleshiwa" chilis-chi-ya) will be maintained until next year's Green Corn Ceremony. In traditional times, women swept their fires and the rest of their homes and collected dirt from them, as well as any old clothes and furniture that needed to be burned and replaced with new items for the New Year. The women then bring coals to their homes to rekindle the household fire. Then on this fire you can bake a new fruit of the year (it can also be eaten with bear butter). Many Creeks also practice sapi or ceremonial scratching, a type of morning bloodletting, and in many tribes men and women may rub themselves with corn milk, ashes, white clay or similar mixtures and bathe as a form of purification.
Day three
While the second day is devoted to women's dances, the third day is dedicated to men's. After the purification of the second day, the men of the community perform a feather dance to heal the community. The fast usually ends with supper after the women announce that the food is ready, at which time the men descend to a body of water, usually a flowing stream or river, for a ceremonial bath. in water and a private men's collection. They then return to the ceremonial square and perform a single stomp dance before retiring to their home camps for a feast. At this time, participants in healing rites are not allowed to sleep as part of the fast. At midnight, the "Stomp Dance" ceremony is held, which includes a feast and continues all night.
Day four
On the fourth day at dawn, friendly dances, games are arranged, and later people gather and return home with a feeling of purification and forgiveness. The open water fast will continue for another four days.

Feudalism is a hierarchy in social power. The king is at the top and owned all the land. He gave areas of land to rich lords and nobles. In return, the lords and nobles agreed to protect the land and supply soldiers. Knights fought for the nobles and the king.

Step 3 :
Use your findings to compose three diary entries. Each entry should be three to five sentences and should answer one or more of the questions in Step 2. Each entry should describe the reason for and the effect of his voyage.
Answer: Yongle proved extremely ambitious. He temporarily conquered Vietnam and tried to overpower Japan. He built a new imperial capital in Beijing, including the Forbidden City, and extended the Great Wall. Since he was determined to control trading in the Indian Ocean, one of his first acts was to commission the construction of 3,500 ships, with Zheng He supervising the construction and then commanding the fleet.
Some of these ships were the largest marine craft the world had ever known. Zheng He’s nine-masted flagship measured about 400 feet long; for comparison, Christopher Columbus’s Santa Maria measured just 85 feet. On the first voyage, from 1405 to 1407, 62 nine-masted “treasure ships” led the way, followed by almost 200 other ships of various sizes, carrying personnel, horses, grain, and 28,000 armed troops.
Historians were skeptical of accounts describing the size of these ships until, in 1962, workers on the Yangtze riverfront found a buried wooden timber 36 feet long (originally a steering post) beside a massive rudder. It was the right size to have been able to steer a ship of 540 to 600 feet in length, and the right age — dated at 600 years old — to be from one of Zheng He’s ships.

Zheng He’s initial trip took him from the South China Sea through the Indian Ocean to Calicut, India, and back. The emperor’s purpose for this expedition seems to have been to obtain recognition and gifts from other rulers. The voyagers did not intend to conquer or colonize, but they were prepared to use military force against those who refused to respect them.
Near the end of the voyage Zheng He’s ships encountered pirates in the Sumatran port of Palembang. The pirate leader pretended to submit, with the intention of escaping. However, Zheng He started a battle, easily defeating the pirates — his forces killing more than 5,000 people and taking the leader back to China to be beheaded.
Five more voyages followed before Emperor Yongle’s death in 1424; they included excursions to Hormuz — the Arab port at the mouth of the Persian Gulf — and the coast of eastern Africa, from which He returned with giraffes, zebras, and other items unfamiliar to the Chinese.
On his seventh and final voyage, from 1431 to 1433, Zheng He apparently died at sea and was likely buried off the coast of India, although some of his descendants believe that he made it back to China and died soon after his return.

Soldiers wore gas masks during World War I to protect themselves from
A. chemical weapons.
B. disease in the trenches.

A

Early gas masks were crude as would be expected as no-one had thought that poison gas would ever be used in warfare as the mere thought seemed too shocking.
