The "history of religions" school sought to account for this religious diversity by connecting it with the social and economic situation of a particular group.
Typically religions are divided into stages of progression from more simple to more complex societies, especially from polythei ...

History of Cyprus - Overview.
Following the Ottoman Empires defeat in World War I, Cyprus was annexed by Britain in 1925 and made a crown colony.

| | | | | History: Encyclopedia II - History of Coventry - Early history Coventry is traditionally believed to have been established in the year 1043 with the founding of a Benedictine Abbey by Leofric, Earl of Mercia and his wife Lady Godiva. Current evidence suggests that this abbey was probably in existence by 1022, therefore Leofric and Godiva most likely endowed it around 1043. In time, a market was established at the abbey gates and the settlement expanded.
By the 13th century Coventry had become a centre of many textile trades, especially those related to wool. Coventry's prosperity rested largely on the dyers who produced "Coventry blue" cloth, which was highly sought ...

| | | | | History: Encyclopedia II - History of Ethiopia - Earliest History Ethiopia has seen human habitation for longer than almost anywhere else in the world, with modern homo sapiens perhaps evolving there.
There is some confusion over the usage of the word Ethiopia in ancient times and the modern country. The ancient Greeks used the word (Αιθιοπία) to refer to the peoples living immediately to the south of ancient Egypt, specifically the area now known as Nubia; modern usage has transferred this name further south to the land and peoples known until the early 20th century as Abyssinia. As a resul ...

| | | | | History: Encyclopedia II - History of Somalia - Early History The original settlers of the Somali region were ethnic Cushites from the fertile lakes of southern Ethiopia. This group is sub-divided into a number of other ethnicities, which are still readily recognized (and fought over) today. Archeological evidence supports the idea that most of the coastline of present day Somalia had been settled by AD 100. G.W.B. Huntingford has argued in his translation of the Periplus of the Erythraean Sea, written about this time, that the "Lesser and Greater Bluffs", the "Lesser and Greater Strands", and t ...

History of Ohio - Mound builders.
Image:AISerpent.jpg Ohio, the region north of the Ohio River and south of the Great Lakes, was originally inhabited by ancient American Indians. The earliest human inhabitants of what is now Ohio were probably Paleo-Indian peoples, who lived in the area as early as 13,000 BC. They were eventually supplanted by Archaic Indians, who were in turn supplanted by Native Americans of the Adena culture about 800 BC. The Adenas were mound builders who built thousands of burial mounds in O ...

However, Athens lost most of its power and pro ...

There is no proof that he invented anything, but he proved an inspiration for generations. The story about Sondre as the father of modern skiing was largely constructed in Norway from the 1930s, especially in connection with the Olympic Winter Games in Oslo in 1952. Most of the inven ...

Such a study mainly draws on oral history for the recent period and archival records for the period beyond living memory. Where an individual's own story is unknown, much can be inferred from other literature. For example, a singl ...
