  The common consensus is that maybe a few lone or stray Vikings visited North America before Columbus sailed over the ocean blue, and we know the rest of it. This does not explain the amazing amounts of Roman, Jewish, early Christian, North African, Celtic, Phoenician and other cultures that left artifacts all over North America. Come with me on amazing river voyages across this vast continent as we actually find out how far early cultures travelled across the lakes, rivers and plains of North America.

  How to Get Over a Breakup - An...

  Breakups are the worst. On one scale devised by psychiatrists, only a spouse's death was ranked as more stressful than a marital split. Is there any treatment for a breakup? The ancient Roman poet Ovid thought so. Having become famous for teaching the art of seduction in The Art of Love, he then wrote Remedies for Love (Remedia Amoris), which presents thirty-eight frank and witty strategies for coping with unrequited love, falling out of love, ending a relationship, and healing a broken heart. How to Get Over a Breakup presents an unabashedly modern prose translation of Ovid's lighthearted and provocative work, complete with a lively introduction. 
   
   
   
  Ovid's advice—which he illustrates with ingenious interpretations of classical mythology—ranges from the practical, psychologically astute, and profound to the ironic, deliberately offensive, and bizarre. Some advice is conventional—such as staying busy, not spending time alone, and avoiding places associated with an ex. Some is off-color, such as having sex until you're sick of it. And some is simply and delightfully weird—such as becoming a lawyer and not eating arugula. 
   
   
   
  Whether his advice is good or bad, entertaining or outrageous, How to Get Over a Breakup reveals an Ovid who sounds startlingly modern.

  Economic History of Colombia -...

  The economic history of Colombia is a rich and complex narrative shaped by its colonial past, its struggle for independence, and its evolution into a modern, globalized economy. Colombia’s economic trajectory is marked by cycles of growth, stagnation, and reform, heavily influenced by both internal and external forces. To understand Colombia’s present-day economic standing, it is essential to first explore the historical context that laid the foundation for its economic structure. 
  The history of Colombia’s economy begins with its pre-Colombian civilizations, which thrived through agriculture and trade. The Spanish colonization in the 16th century drastically altered the region's economic systems. Colombia became a key part of the Spanish Empire’s colonial economy, centered on the extraction of gold, silver, and agricultural products. During the colonial era, the economic structure was based on a system of encomiendas, which exploited Indigenous labor, and the export of valuable resources to Spain. This period was foundational in creating the early foundations of the Colombian economy, particularly its dependence on mineral wealth. 
  The struggle for independence from Spain in the early 19th century, which culminated in 1810 with the declaration of independence and a protracted series of wars, significantly disrupted the economy. The wars of independence led to the fragmentation of the region into several separate entities, each facing economic challenges as they sought to stabilize and develop. Upon achieving independence in 1819, Colombia faced a host of problems, including political fragmentation, lack of infrastructure, and limited industrial capacity. These challenges hindered the country's economic development for much of the 19th century.
