The Early Modern Period
The Early Modern Period is a term used by historians to refer to the transitional period in Western
Europe between the Middle Ages and modern society. The latter is assumed to be characterised by the
importance of science, technological progress, secular civic politics and capitalist economics, all
monitored by the nation state. The term 'Early Modern', then, applies to the period from the fifteenth to
the early eighteenth century when these developments were in the process of formation.

Pre Columbian civilizations
GROUP TASK
9. Read the following text about pre-Columbian civilizations and fill the box below.
When Europeans reached America, they found a variety of cultures. Some of these people had created
important civilizations such as the Aztecs, Mayans and Incas, with a great socio-political and cultural
development. They did not know the wheel and the iron and they used simple weapons as maces,shields, bows and arrows.
Mayas The Maya civilization occupied the land of the Yucatan Peninsula. They had a very precise
calendar, a hieroglyphic writing and they had discovered the need for number zero, which
had failed Greeks or the Romans. They were farmers and merchants. The sovereign,
called Halac-Uimic, ruled a confederation of city-states. His power was supposedly by
divine origin and he was also the high priest.
Incas The Incas built their empire throughout the Andes. Its main food was potatoes and corn.
They also cultivated pumpkins, tomatoes, peanuts and cotton. It was ruled by the Inca, a
divinized head considered son of the sun, and the title was hereditary. The territory included
four provinces, each which was managed by a governor. They developed a system to
remember the dates and events called Quipu. They were very important for its suspension
bridges and their great road network.
Aztecs The Aztec civilization was in the territory of the current city of Mexico. The Aztecs developedirrigation techniques and floating cultivation fields. The cultivated corn, tomatoes, beans,
avocados, vanilla and cocoa, which made chocolate. They used a pictographic writing
system and they had a calendar. A confederation of cities, managed by a governor, formed
their empire where the emperor had the political, military and religious power.

Columbus reaches America
INDIVIDUAL TASK
12. Watch the video http://bit.ly/1VLUFrh and read the story about Christopher Columbus
I was born in Genoa, in Italy in 1451. My
parents gave me the name of Cristoforo
Colombo. I was the oldest of five children. Myfamily didn't have much money, so I worked
with my father, who was a weaver, As a young
man I went sailing but my ship was attacked
and it sank. I swam six kilometers and I arrived
to a Portuguese beach.
Then, I went to Lisbon and I became the
captain of a Portuguese ship. I wanted to find a
shorter route to the Indies to find gold and
spices. I believed I could find it sailing west.
Until now gold and spices came in caravans so
they were very expensive. King John II ofPortugal thought it was impossible and said no. I went to Ferdinand and Isabella, the King and Queen of
Spain and told them my plan. They offered to buy three ships- the Niña, the Pinta and the Santa Maria-
and hired a crew of 90 men in 1492.
We set sail from Spain and two months later we reached land. It was an island and I called the people
living there 'Indians" because I thought I was near Africa. Then I returned to Spain and received an
award. Later I went back to the sea because the Spanish wanted to colonize the new islands. I made
four trips and it was only on the third that I realized that maybe I was wrong and this was not the Indies
but a new great continent, America.
13. Order these sentences about Christopher Columbus adventure.
⬜ They gave Colombus three ships: the Pinta, the Niña and the Santa Maria... and on the 3rd
August 1492 he left Palos.
⬜ Colombus was a sailor, born in Genoa, Italy. He had always been fascinated by the sea!
⬜ Many people refused to help Colmbus to find this new rout to Asia, unitel Queen Isabella and
king Ferdinand of Spain agreed to help Columbus.
⬜ To go to India, China and Japan traders travelled east, bordering Africa, This took a long
time!
⬜ Columbus believed that the Earth was round so reaching India, China and Japan by sailing
west would be a lot faster.
⬜ On the 12th October 1492 Columbus arrived at the island of San Salvador, Bahamas. The
thought he had reached India, when in fact he had reached the "New Word", America.
⬜ In 1492, and before that day, people in Europe traded with India, China and Japan. spices
from Asia were highly appreciated!

The Columbian Exchange
GROUP TASK
Trade - The activity of buying, selling, or exchanging products.
Export - To send a product to another country.
Import - To bring a product into a country.
With the recent discovered territory Europeans nations create anew desire for trade. Products from Europe were exported to
America and new discovered and valous products from America
were imported to Europe. New commercial routes were created
and the exchange of products increased starting a new global
economy.
20. Think about products that you use and they are imported to your country. Write them down.
21. In groups discuss what products do you think were imported from America and what ones

Inventions and discoveries
PAIR TASK
During the Age of Exploration many tools were needed to help it flourish. These tools were helpful
mainly because they helped explorers travel across seas. The explorers were able to make their
discoveries mainly because of these innovations. Moreover this period is also known for important
inventions related to medicine and technology. Read more on bit.ly/1R9fE3k and en.wikipedia.org
22. Match each invention with its picture.

Gall–Peters projection
It's impossible to portray the reality of the
spherical world on a flat map. The familiar
'Mercator' projection gives the right shapes of
land masses (up to a point), but at the cost of
distorting their sizes in favour of the wealthy
lands to the north.
The German Arno Peters tried to correct this.
His projection gets the proportions (roughly)
right, and has the effect of emphasising the
Third World. Maps based on the projection are
promoted by UNESCO, and they are also
widely used by British schools The Peters projection world map got the proportions (roughly) right in 1974
18. Look at the map and answer theses questions.
Why did Peters create his map?
