OUR ROOTS IN SEARCH OF THE MAN AND LET'S TALK ABOUT THE WEATHER
IL TEMPO
Il tempo è un concetto relativo. Per noi terrestri, il tempo è iniziato con la formazione del nostro sistema solare. Esso si misura in anni, mesi, settimane e giorni. L'anno non è una misura arbitraria stabilita dall'uomo. E' una misura astronomica ricavata dall'attenta osservazione delle stelle. L'anno Astronomical time is needed so that the Earth completes one revolution around the sun and is located in the exact position.
This time was measured in 365 days and six hours. For this reason, every four years there is a leap year of 366 days. This is the twelfth month of the year. This week, the fourth part of the month and day, 24 hours, is the time it takes for you to do a ride on the earth itself.
9) THE MAN AND THE TIME
Since he discovered agriculture, man had become aware of the importance of time. From it, in fact, all depended on her social life: the time of sowing and harvest time, the time of the floods and the time of the rains. He needed to know when these events would have occurred to better plan its activities.
For your convenience, the man has split the time:
past (the time that no longer exists), this
(what's currently) and
future (what will).
The man of the first great civilizations (Mesopotamia and Egypt) had learned to measure time, but had not learned to give a chronological order to events.
10) chronological time
The idea of \u200b\u200bgiving an order to things that happened gradually over time (history, from the greek chronos = time) was to Greeks of the fifth century BC They decided to take a starting point for dating events in sequence (timeline). This starting point was the first Olympic Games, which took place in 776 BC
Jews chose the date of creation of the world, according to the Bible, it happened in 3760 a. C. The Romans went from 753 BC, when, they say, Rome was founded. The Muslims, however, chose the year of the Hegira (662 AD), when Muhammad, their prophet, fled from Mecca to Medina.
The Christian world, then, everything starts from the birth of Jesus Christ, which is fixed as one year. All that is before is indicated by 'BC' (abbreviated in BC). All that is after is indicated with 'AD' (abbreviated as AD), but we also use 'Anno Domini' (abbreviated as AD).
