Prehistory Speech

A. In learning our past most would say that we must study our history. History is a series of events that were written, recorded or maybe was passed down by telling newer generations. What about the ones that were not recorded, written and told, it is called prehistory. Prehistory means literally "before history", from the Latin word for "before," præ, and Greek ιστορία. Prehistory can start in any time line. Like might begin in the beginning of the universe or the start of humans to appear in the world. Prehistory is also known to be primitive, for it is before civilization. Even before early scientist studied early tools and how to use them, they were intrigue from where did our technology start from?

B. Because of this man became curious

History is everywhere. Each country has his story to tell. History for western countries is writing of events. May it be a trial of a murderer who have killed 25 people or a festival in a small village. We treat our history before as something which is important or relevant. Trivial things and event that were grievous for us are forgotten. So things that were useful for daily life were pass down by a father to his son or by a mentor to his apprentice. Events about festivities are also remembered. This thing were remembered to make them happy and to make them stay positive. Making bad happenings meaningless and forgotten. It might be got for short term span, but we also need to know what happen in those dark times, so we can assess and avoid the same mistake. Even today we still have this habit of forgetting the bad events. Just like when Manny Pacman our famed boxer was defeated. We tried not to talk about it, but when he wins are joy know no

The book really turned my head. It showed me that we were awesome before the Spaniards came. Women were assertive and very sexually experienced. It made me think, what if the Spaniard never came to the Philippines. What could have happened? If was born in those times, I think my life would be a lot better in a little way. Philippines now is the only Christian country in Asia. If we were not converted to Christian, we would have a diverse kinds of religions and practices. Making Philippines culture richer. We must also continue are practice, like the making of our bolos just like Japan with katana. Also traditional medicine, which may be helpful right now in our time. A. Archaeology is the study of the human past. The bones and early tools were like glass window to the past for this scientist. This discipline can help us learn, what where the first humans like, how did they survive, and what were their technologies before. This discipline also helped us to prove that were not what the westerners think of us.

B. The west thought of as savages, but we were not. The people who venture in the discipline archaeology dug bones, jar and other ancient artifacts. It showed that Philippines had an art for jars and also practice a diverse way of burying and mummifying. They also thought of us as a “dumb” race, being illiterate. But even before we already had meeting, trials and tributes, it meant that Philippines had a simple social structure even before the coming of the Spaniards.
