Part II: Application and Critical Thinking (20 points) 7. You have learned about five elements that historians use to determine if a society should be called a civilization:

Job specialization

Advanced cities

Advanced technology

Systems of writing

Complex social institutions

Many different historical civilizations feature these traits. But which ones provide the best examples of each feature? Write five short paragraphs, one for each of the elements, that describe how these traits appear in actual civilizations. You must use a different civilization for each element, so think carefully about which ones you would like to use before you begin writing. Be sure to use specific historical evidence to support your claims.
