Zeus King of Gods

       Zeus was the god of the sky and also known as the ruler of the Olympian gods. He fought his father, Cronus, and won. He then drew lots with his brothers Poseidon and Hades, to decide who would take their father’s place on the throne. Zeus won the draw. Zeus was depicted to have white/brown hair and beard. He had a robe on with nothing underneath. He was able to control lightning and thunder. Zeus’s personality is thought to be angry and destructive, however he does have a thoughtful personality as he saved his brothers from their father. He also had many lovers which could give him a romantic and sympathetic personality when he wasn’t angry. Overall Zeus was a feared god and his mood can change easily. You wouldn’t want to mess with him.

           

Egypt Immortality and Mummification

           Egypt’s people have believed that the good spirits (including all pharohs) go to an afterlife. There the spirit can live on forever. However, before they could send the spirit to the afterlife, they needed to complete a process called mummification. Mummification is when the body’s organs are removed and preserved in jars (excluding the brain). Then once they are dried, the body is rapped in bandages and brought to a tomb in a coffin to be buried. If you were a pharaoh you would have the honor of being buried in a pyramid. There the pyramid would be filled with earthly goods to be enjoyed in the afterlife. That was the highest honor in early Egyptian society.

Art HIstory

           Article:http://www.salon.com/2017/01/15/the-art-of-learning-why-art-history-might-be-the-most-important-subject-you-could-study-today/



         Is art history the most important subject? That is the question on your mind when you read this article. It states that art history may in fact be the most important. My opinion is yes and no. My  answer varies between yes and no based on what you want to do for a living. However, I'm leaning towards no more than yes.

          I agree that art history helps people think outside of the box and take perspective into account. However, I don't think having those abilities are needed whilst having a job that doesn't include art. In other words, if you're a travel agent, art isn't  needed to do your job. My answer changes if you go into graphic design or comic art. Then art history would help you when your job is in that category.

          Putting that aside, art history can still help when thinking outside of the box and having perspective. It might not be needed, but it can help boost your performance by having a sense of creativity. A sense of creativity can help you make the right choice when deciding something important.

          In conclusion, art history is an important subject. However, it's not the most important one. It's not needed to do a large number of jobs. Those that do include art, it more important to take art history. My answer varies if you have a job in either category mentioned. I don't think art history should be completely erased, it should stay as it is.
