The Egyptian civilization is thought to have been begun in about 3150 BC until 31 BC. For the ancient Greek civilization, it started in the period of Minoan (ca. 3200 BC) up to the ending of the Hellenistic era. There are various parallels and dissimilarities between both civilizations. They co-existed during a certain timeframe (from ca. 2000 to ca. 146 BC); however, they were in two different geographic areas. Both civilizations were massive traders, subsequently, they deeply influenced the regional civilizations which have developed in that region. Various scientific and technological principles were established by both civilizations through their long histories. Water management was one of these major technologies. Accordingly, they have significantly influenced the ancient world’s hydro-technologies.

  • Incoming Scholars Bond on Thompson Island
    THE NEWSLETTER OF THE PRESIDENTIAL SCHOLARS PROGRAM, BOSTON COLLEGE Volume XIV, Issue 1 Fall 2009 Incoming Scholars bond on Thompson Island Freshman Scholars begin their Boston College careers by taking part in an overnight ropes program run by Outward Bound on Thompson Island in Boston Harbor. After arriving on campus during the week before classes begin, and accompanied by Scholars from the upper classes, and the graduate assistant, they engage in a range of activities designed to promote a sense of camaraderie among the group, to encourage in them the habit of pushing themselves beyond the boundaries of their comfort zones, to help them realize that they are capable of achieving more than they think they are, and to emphasize that leadership can be done from within a group as well as at the head of one, all qualities that we seek to nurture in Presidential Scholars. Rachel Newmiller, a member of the Class of 2013, recalls her experience on Thompson Island. By Rachel Newmiller, A&S ‘13 The view of Boston from the top of the alpine tower made my 64 foot climb well worth all the effort. During my ascent, shouts of encouragement, words of advice, and directions from a trustworthy belayer resonated through the windy sea air from the ground below. A few days before putting on a harness I never would have imagined that I could accomplish such a feat. Yet challenges like this characterized the Outward Bound Thompson Island experience, pushing the newest class of Presidential Scholars to tackle a slew of physical obstacles together, resulting in great team and personal triumphs.

  • Precision and Splendor: Clocks and Watches at the Frick Collection
    ON VIEW IN THE PORTICO GALLERY PRECISION AND SPLENDOR: CLOCKS AND WATCHES AT THE FRICK COLLECTION January 23, 2013, through March 9, 2014 (extended, note new end date) Today the question “What time is it?” is quickly answered by looking at any number of devices around us, from watches to phones to computers. For millennia, however, determining the correct time was not so simple. In fact, it was not until the late thirteenth century that the first mechanical clocks were made, slowly replacing sundials and water clocks. It would take several hundred years before mechanical timekeepers became reliable and accurate. This exhibition explores the discoveries and innovations made in the field of horology from the early sixteenth to the nineteenth century. The exhibition, to be shown in the new Portico Gallery, features eleven clocks and fourteen watches from the Winthrop Kellogg Edey bequest, along with five clocks lent Mantel Clock with Study and Philosophy, movement by Renacle-Nicolas Sotiau (1749−1791), figures after Simon-Louis by a private collector, works that have never before been seen in New York Boizot (1743–1809), c. 1785−90, patinated and gilt bronze, marble, enameled metal, and glass, H.: 22 inches, private collection City. Together, these objects chronicle the evolution over the centuries of more accurate and complex timekeepers and illustrate the aesthetic developments that reflected Europe’s latest styles. Precision and Splendor: Clocks and Watches at The Frick Collection was organized by Charlotte Vignon, Associate Curator of Decorative Arts, The Frick Collection. Major funding for the exhibition is provided by Breguet. Additional support is generously provided by The Selz Foundation, Peter and Gail Goltra, and the David Berg Foundation.
