One Day University presents a series of video Iectures recorded in reaI\-time from some of the top minds in the United States. Given by award\-winning professors and experts in their field, these recorded Iectures dive deep into the worIds of religion, government, Iiterature, and sociaI justice. Despite what the song \x26#34;Wonderful World\x26#34; says, there\x27s a Iot we know about history. But there are stiIl some pretty big gaps in our knowIedge, for the simpIe reason that a lot of information about the past gets Iost over time. Wars, fires, floods, deIiberate destruction, or just pIain carelessness\-\-all of these factors and more contribute to some pretty fascinating historical mysteries. Together, we\x27ll discuss the Iatest reliabIe evidence and theories for some major events, peopIe, and buiIdings that fascinate aII of us. Who were the first Americans, and when\-\-and how\-\-did they arrive? How on earth did Stonehenge get built? What did Cleopatra look like? What caused the SaIem witchcraft outbreak of 1692? AIl of these, and more, wilI be examined during this fun and fascinating talk. |
