Based on the excerpt you read and what you learned in the lesson, is William of Rubruck describing a traditional Mongol society or one that has adopted foreign customs? Explain your response in three to five sentences, identifying specific evidence from your reading to support your view.

Answer and Explanation:

Although you did not put the passage to which the question refers, we can say that William of Rubruck was describing a traditional Mongolian society. This is because Rubruck's text highlights the life of Mongolian shepherds in a nomadic life system, which was the system adopted by the oldest and most archaic Mongolian society. The author also describes the traditional clothes used by society, which are very different from the clothes used today, with the influence of Western beauty standards.

Read the excerpt from The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone by James Cross Giblin.

Some of these scholars made otherwise significant contributions to the world's knowledge of ancient Egypt. A German priest of the 1600s, Athanasius Kircher, wrote the first grammar and vocabulary of Coptic, the language of Christian Egypt. These books were to prove of great value when the hieroglyphs were eventually deciphered.

But Kircher's ideas about the hieroglyphs themselves were even farther off the mark than those of Horapollo. Looking at a certain group of symbols—which actually stood for the name of a pharaoh—Kircher let his imagination run wild. Without any evidence to support him, he said that the hieroglyphs meant "The blessings of the god Osiris are to be procured by means of sacred ceremonies, in order that the benefits of the river Nile may be obtained."

Which sentence from this excerpt contains evidence that supports the claim?
