I missed yesterday's class so I do not have complete notes on this topic. Today in class we took notes and discussed the geographic topics of site and situation. The basic definition of site is the physical characteristics of a place including Water, topography, soil, elevation, latitude, and vegetation. Sites are used by geographers to tell the characteristics of a small place. Sites can also be manipulated and modified by human activity. This human activity can have a great effect on the characteristics of the site. A situation by definition is a location that is classified based on its relation to other familiar places. This can be helpful for geographers because they can make inferences based on sites they already have discovered. Inferences on sites based on their situation are not always correct.
Toady in class instead of reviewing the test we read and took notes on the next three sections. The first section was on the Rise of Christianity and talked about how Jesus' teachings spread. The most important reason they spread was because his teachings brought salvation to all. Christianity was a vision that a Roman emperor had before he went into battle. They won the battle and he made it so Christians would no longer be persecuted.
