Ocean
Author: John Haywood
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1639367675
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 393
Book Description
A magisterial cultural history of the Atlantic Ocean before Columbus, ranging from the early shaping of the continents and the emergence of homo sapiens to the story of shipbuilding, navigation, maritime exploration, slavery, and nascent European imperialism. A dazzling and ambitious history of the pre-Columbian Atlantic seas, Ocean is a story that begins with the formation of the mid-Atlantic ridge some 200 million years ago and ends with the Castilian conquest of the Canary Islands in the fifteenth century, providing a template for the methods used by the Spanish in their colonization of the New World. John Haywood eloquently argues that the perception of Atlantic history beginning with the first voyage of the celebrated Genoese navigator Christopher Columbus is a mistaken one, and that the seafaring and shipbuilding skills that enabled European global exploration and expansion did not arrive fully formed in the fifteenth century, but instead were learned over centuries and millennia in the Atlantic and its peripheral seas. The pre-Columbian history of the Atlantic is the story of how Europeans learned to master the oceans. This story is, therefore, key to understanding why it was Europeans, and not any of the world's other seafaring peoples, who “discovered” the world. Informed by the author's extensive travels around the Atlantic Ocean, crossing Newfoundland's Grand Banks, the Sea of Darkness, and the weed-covered Sargasso Sea, and populated by a heterogeneous and multiethnic cast of seafarers, fishermen, monks, merchants, and dreamers, Ocean is an in-depth history of a neglected subject, fusing geology, geography, mythology, developing maritime technologies, and the early history of exploration to narrate an enthralling an story—one which lies at the very heart of Europe's modern history and its relationship with the rest of the world.

Book Description
What started out, a half century ago, to be a chase down historys trail to discover the origin of a silver sculpture of a man and his dog plasticized around a copper armature turned out to be a chase of the history of mankind itself. The writer has brought to light of day, a reasoned documented analysis of the unbroken chain of seemingly isolated facts, obscure data and wove them into a tapestry or painted a word picture of where man has been. The quest for the man, the sculptor, and his culture became a time traveled beyond the normal bounds of inquiry.

KONSTANTA SUMURUPING GENI NUSANTARA The literal meaning of the word "constant" is "constancy", constant or unchanging In mathematics, "constant" or "constant" is a constant value. Constants are used in various scientific disciplines as opposed to arbitrary "variables". The definition of "variable" includes meaning changeable, not fixed, the declaration of something that has a variety of values in the programming language is also called a symbol that represents a certain value, variables known in sub-programs are called local variables, while those that are known in general / intact in one program are called " Global Variables " "History" or real events in the past is "Certain" not "Variable", only the records are affected by the interests of the "Subjective" in power which makes this uncertain and even "Ambiguous", this must be straightened out. Constant is a type of variable whose value cannot be changed. Value initialization is only done once at the beginning, after which it cannot be changed. Some constants are named according to the name of the discoverer. Examples of constants: ● c (speed of light) = 299,792,458 meters per second ● h (Planck's constant) = 6.626 x 10-34 Joule seconds ● G (constant gravity) = 6.6742 x 10-11 m3 s-2 kg-1 ● Hubble constant = 70 (km / s) / Mpc ● π (pi), the constant of the ratio of the circle to the diameter, the value is close to 3.141592653589793238462643 ... E, the value is close to 2.718281828459045235360287 ... ● φ (golden ratio), the value is close to 1.618033988749894848204586 So "Constant" is "Constant" whose value cannot be changed. Value initialization is only done once at the beginning, after which the value cannot be changed, the number of years in recording real events in history is correct in that year not "Variable" If the determination of the number of years in historical recording is "ambiguous" or can be refuted "truth" then it needs to be corrected and revised ... this is what happened to our country's history recording ... The discoveries at the end of the 20th century showed that the "Cosmological Constant" was needed to explain the existence of "Dark energy" The cosmological constant is the density of space energy or vacuum energy that appears in the field equation in General Relativity. This constant was introduced by Einstein in his theory of "General Relativity" so that the universe remains static Einstein then discarded or abandoned the cosmological constant when observations showed that the universe is expanding or moving to expand "This is the biggest mistake in my life" Einstein, who once modified the nature of the general theory of relativity, felt that he had 'corrupted' his own theory.He regretted so much that the addition of the cosmological constant was the biggest mistake of his life. Naturally, as an ordinary human, Eintein is not free from mistakes, here we learn that mistakes are a very human nature, they can happen to anyone, including scientists of Einstein's caliber. Likewise in the calculation of the year in the recording of historical years in the archipelago, "Konstanta" or the determination of the calculation of the historical year on the inscription with the number of "Saka" which has been calculated as "Must" started in 78 AD, is obsolete, must be discarded or not. used again, because it is proven that there are many historical facts that occurred before that year in the archipelago "Mistakes" or in polite language is "Mistakes" can happen to anyone, including scientists of Einstein's caliber, as well as chroniclers in this country ... that the year 78 AD is the year of the "Saka" nation of the ancestors of the Archipelago nation. that year conquered Raja Salivahana in south India It is not the beginning of the Saka year to calculate the number of years in the "Inscription" of this early calculation of the Saka year, causing our history to be lost before the year 78 AD, in fact there is already an advanced civilization in this country, ... and if this is considered "to the Khilafan". .. so when do we want to be considered a "Primitive" nation ...? That means ... If we have found the numbers "Constants" or "Decisions" in the early years of the calculation of the Saka year in the inscriptions, we will find a lot of real facts that the "History of the Archipelago" is more advanced than what is written today ... The "Sumuruping Geni Constant" is the determination of the return of the bright light from the fire that once lit the world, and the source of that fire has ever occurred and originated in this land. "History" naturally rotates towards the point where it was once passed, and that triumph has occurred and will be repeated again with valid provisions or constants ... so now the time has come for the "Sumuruping Geni Constant" to occur again in this archipelago. ... The generation of this nation will understand who their true ancestors were .... that their ancestors were not "Primitive", did not embrace Animism.
