Think about all the innovations you've learned about in this lesson. It is time to start thinking like a cultural historian. Imagine that you are preparing a time capsule of items that represent scientific achievements from the 20th century. The people who dig up your time capsule will be unfamiliar with the importance of these innovations because they are living in a world made possible by innovations developed well after you. Your job is to prepare an explanation of 20th century science and innovation for the time capsule.

Answer and Explanation:

The 20th century promoted several scientific innovations that were very important for human progress, in addition to representing the basis for discoveries that would be made in the coming years, making science even more innovative.

First, we can say that the 20th century was essential for the treatment of infections, since it was at that time that antibiotics were discovered, being one of the most important medicines in the world. Airplanes and the Internet are also scientific advances of that time and have become two essential elements in modern life.

Nevertheless, science has stimulated advances in communication, entertainment and even food. This all shows how important the 20th century was to establish the benefits and facilities that we currently have.

the exact role and status of women in the roman world, and indeed in most ancient societies, has often been obscured by the biases of both ancient male writers and 19-20th century ce male scholars, a situation only relatively recently redressed by modern scholarship which has sought to more objectively assess women's status, rights, duties, representation in the arts, and daily lives; and all this from almost exclusively male source material dealing with a male-dominated roman world.

women in mythology

unlike some other ancient cultures such as the greeks who had formed a creation myth where woman was a creature secondary to man and, more specifically, in the form of pandora, a bringer of unhappiness and vices, the romans had a more neutral approach where humanity, and not specifically the male, was created by the gods from earth and water. ovid's metamorphoses, for example, does not specify whether the first human was a man or a woman. at least in a physical sense then men and women were not regarded as belonging to a different species as in the greek world, a view often reiterated in roman medical treatises.
