History Head comments

Como estas, Senior Amit! I really liked your broad selection of pictures, i thought that showing actual pictures with the addition of some Mesoamerican art was helpful in understanding the then-and-now. I also like how your pictures are large and clear. However, I'd just like a point a few things out: I liked the pictures inside your history head, they were great in fact, but they didn't fit in the head exactly, you probably already knew that though...Anyways, I also noticed how the picture you have in the top right corner of your poster is slanted (I'm assuming that this is the timeline as the picture is not so great), and it seems you ran out of room with your other pictures being so large. And lastly I believe the cutting out of your pictures could have been slightly more precise and that the white borders you have on there make it look a tad less clean than it could be. I noticed that you have a picture of a Mesoamerican pyramid on your poster, and that was similar to the Egyptians in the way that they also made pyramids even though they look a little different. Something different between the two societies we did our projects on was the climates: In Egypt, the places away from the Nile were very dry while in Mesoamerica there was much more green. And Finally, I'd like to know why you chose a printed version of the timeline as opposed to drawing it out.

Hey Nick!

I liked a bunch of things about your poster, one of the things that really stood out for me was the fact that the pictures inside your history head actually fit! (Mine didn't... >:[), and also I like the variety in your pictures, and your key was very defined and clear. However, something I'd like to point out is your timeline; it is indeed a timeline, but I feel that there would be more than a beginning and an end (from what I can see in this amazing Ipad camera quality, anyways). The civilizations in both Mesopotamia and Egypt had polytheistic religions; and they were different in the sense that the writing of the Mesopotamians was based on strokes and symbols Egypts was based on pictures. Oh right...and my question is about the picture labeled 3 and what it represents.
