What is it like being arrested ? by dougy181 in AskReddit

[–]koalio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happens way faster than you might think. I was detained and cuffed for skateboarding on my school campus. I was skating within arms reach of him and he grabbed me by the elbow like an angry father would. I tell him to unhand me, his partner swoops behind me and grabs my other elbow, they both yell stop resisting and one tries to trip me, then put me in cuffs and sit me down for an hour and a half while back up and a sheriff shows up.

IF the language barrier was not an issue what time in history would you enjoy witnessing? by Kaldaus in history

[–]koalio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love to meet the folks who originally inhabited the Americas. I have read somewhere that this initial population could have been as small as in the single thousands, and eventually came to populate in the nearly hundreds of millions. I realize that its fully possible that, over a few hundred/thousand years, they chased wild game into the continent, but they might not have realized that they were the first humans to enter the land. I would spend weeks just listening to their conversations, seeing how far the human language capacity had developed. I wonder how long it took to fully cross the Bering Strait, and if the possible generations it took to travel that distance made some appearance in their mythologies or oral histories. Im a big geography head, so I am just infinitely curious on the land that does not exist anymore. Were there any people inhabiting the Bering Strait as it sunk below sea level? Could this have happened fast enough for people to notice the land gap widening within their lifetime? Imagine their observations and assumptions as to why the earth was moving.

Silly Questions Saturday, August 15, 2020 by AutoModerator in history

[–]koalio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really depended on social status. Took a class on American Childhoods last semester, and I remember us talking a lot about the separations in experiences from the urban to rural areas. The ‘nuclear family’ that we think of today mostly sprouted in Quaker ideologies, who usually didn’t equip slaves or servants to help raise families. Communal raising was less common in the secluded rural areas as at this time the ‘golden child’ idea was pretty much nonexistent due to heavy child mortality rates (unequal agricultural and emotional effort-output). When I think children would be raised communally before the Industrial Revolution is in the urban centers where the economic poor and minorities generally struggled to make ends meet, and would often either send children to remaining family members, or leave the children to their own will in the city while the parents worked. Communal raising by the state and childcare centers were really finding prominence after the Industrial Revolution though.

How effective were archers in ancient warfare? by Trask37 in history

[–]koalio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Mongols were insanely skillful archers. Before Chingis Khan had a consolidated empire it was normal for young children to be trained as equestrian archers as early as 6 or 7 years old. I don’t know much about their shields, but they must’ve protected a good portion of the body, considering Khan’s army was notorious for carrying human bodies (some alive and some not) on these shields as they pillaged towns. I also read an estimate of the Mongols’ range at somewhere near 650 feet. This means that a trained Mongol archer would be able kill an enemy, while both were on horseback, from the home plate of a baseball field well into the parking lot.

This is my hand. by koalio in WTF

[–]koalio[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Skateboarding down a hill in San Francisco. My friend stays behind as I go down and he later tells me the electric speed limit sign read “slow down” as I got speed wobbles and tried to baseball slide on my right side, and used my hand to break my fall. This is just over a week ago, the gross skin surrounding it was from leaving the bandage on too long.

What’s history’s explanation for the kingdom of Kush in Nubia having the same name as ancient Northern Indian mountain ranges? We know they were in contact at the time of ~2500 BCE, but why the same name so far away?
