[Grey_Wolf]

Sorry, Sis! it appears no ones is taking ur clues on.

Do you mind if I start the TIME session.

Examples below

This next session will be on specific timespans and years.

...period:

1.0 - It is the period from 1,808,000 to 9,600 years BC. = Pleistocene

...period:

1.1 - It spans the time from around 2.5 million years ago when the first evidence of craft and use of stone tools by hominids appears in the current archaeological record, until around 120,000 years ago when important evolutionary and technological changes. First of three stoneages. = Lower Pleistocene

...period:

1.2 - Very broadly it dates to between around 300,000 and 30,000 years ago. Second of three stoneages = Middle Pleistocene

...period:

1.3 - Very broadly it dates to between 40,000 and 10,000 years ago, roughly coinciding with the appearance of "high" culture and before the advent of agriculture. Third of three stoneages. = Upper Pleistocene

[Earniel]

I should be able to guess some of those or I don't even deserve the degree or amateur... Think Eärniel, think.

1.0 - Pleistocene?

1.1 - Paleolithicum?

1.6 - Old Kingdom? (if so, you kind of hinted to it in the description of the previous question)

1.8 - Middle Kingdom?

2.0 -New Kingdom?

2.4 - Hellenistic period?

[Grey_Wolf]

Well done, Earn! Try again on the others. U may continue.

...period:

1.4 - In Egypt. Generally dated 3200 BC - 3000 BC. It is sometimes known as Dynasty 0. = Protodynastic Period

...period:

1.5 - It is generally taken to include the First and Second Dynasties. It immediately follows the unification of Lower and Upper Egypt c. 3150 BCE. = Early Dynastic Period

...period:

1.6 - period of time when Egypt was ruled by the Third Dynasty through to the Sixth Dynasty (2686 BC – 2134 BC). Which is the name commonly given to that period in the 3rd millennium BC when Egypt attained its first continuous peak of civilization in complexity and achievement – this was the first of three so-called "Kingdom" periods, which mark the high points of civilization in the lower Nile Valley. = Old Kgdm

...period:

1.7 - Which can be considered to embrace the Seventh, Eighth, Ninth, Tenth, and most of the Eleventh Dynasty. Which is the name conventionally given by Egyptologists to that period in Ancient Egyptian history between the end of the first kingdom period and the advent of the second Kingdom period. = First Intermediate Period

...period:

1.8 - Stretching from the establishment of the Eleventh Dynasty to the end of the Fourteenth Dynasty, roughly between 2030 BCE and 1640 BCE. = Middle kingdom

..period:

1.9 - It is best known as when the Hyksos made their appearance in Egypt, whose reign comprised the Fifteenth and Sixteenth Dynasties. Which marks a period when Ancient Egypt once again fell into disarray between the end of the second Kingdom, and the start of the third Kingdom. = Second Intermediate Period

...period:

2.0 - Is the period in ancient Egyptian history between the 16th century BC and the 11th century BC, covering the Eighteenth, Nineteenth, and Twentieth Dynasties of Egypt. Which saw Egypt attempt to create a buffer between the Levant and Egypt, and attain its greatest territorial extent. It expanded far south into Nubia and held wide territories in the Near East. Egyptian armies fought Hittite armies for control of modern-day Syria. = New Kgdm

...period:

2.1 - Encompasses The Twenty-First, Twenty-Second, Twenty-Third, Twenty-Fourth and Twenty-Fifth Dynasties of ancient Egypt. This period is characterized by the country's fracturing kingship. Even in Ramesses' day, the Twentieth dynasty was losing its grip on power in the city of Thebes, whose priests were becoming increasingly powerful. After his death, his successor Smendes I ruled from the city of Tanis, and the High Priests of Amun at Thebes ruling the south of the country. In fact, this division was less significant than it seems, since both priests and pharaohs came from the same family. = Third Intermediate Period.

...period:

2.2 - Which includes The Twenty-Sixth Dynasty. Which is divided into three era: the first period of Persian occupation when Egypt became a satrapy, followed by an interval of independence, and the second and final period of occupation. = First Persian Period

...period:

2.3 - Which emcompasses The 27th - 30th Dynasties. = Late Period

27th, (525 BC - 404 BC), this period saw Egypt conquered by an expansive Persian Empire under Cambyses.

28th, Consisted of a single king, Amyrtaeus, prince of Sais, who rebelled against the Persians. He left no monuments with his name. This dynasty lasted 6 years, from 404 BC to 398 BC.

29th, ruled from Mendes, for the period from 398 BC to 380 BC.

30th, took their art style from the Twenty-Sixth Dynasty. A series of three pharaohs ruled from 380 BC until their final defeat in 343 BC lead to the re-occupation by the Persians.

...period:
