Description

Question: To define and state the significance of people, places, events, or other terms. You will write at least five sentences for each identifications below. To answer these questions, begin by addressing who or what, where, and when—leading you to a factual definition—the term was. Then conclude your paragraph by stating how the term is significant to our understanding of history—answering the questions how or why. See an example below.

Example: Middle Passage
The Middle Passage was the name of the sea journey of slave ships from West Africa to the
West Indies during the 1700s. The significance of this is that the Middle Passage not only
brought slaves which added to the growth of the population, but also brought diversity among
individuals. Another thing to note is that a growth in population also added to the amount of
commerce taking place in a given colony. Eventually, a classification system is created
revolving around race.

Cuneiform
Cuneiform is a logo-syllabic script used to write numerous Ancient Near Eastern
languages. From the early Bronze Age through the Common Era, writing was used. It gets its
name from the distinctive wedge-shaped impressions of its signs. Its significance is that it was
created to write the Sumerian language of southern Mesopotamia. It is one of the first writing
systems alongside Egyptian hieroglyphs. Cuneiform was adopted to write various languages
other than Sumerian during its history.
Akhenaten
Akhenaton was an ancient Egyptian pharaoh who ruled the Eighteenth Dynasty as the
tenth monarch. He was identified as Amenhotep IV before the fifth year of his reign. Its
significance is that, as a king, Akhenaten is remembered for rejecting conventional polytheism in
Egypt and adopting Atenism, or devotion centered on Aten. Egyptologists disagree on whether
the religious policy was completely monotheistic or monolatry, syncretism, or henotheism. After
his death, the cultural shift away from the traditional religion was reverted.
The Prophetic Movement
Though no exact date can be assigned to the start of the prophetic movement, it began
to emerge on a global scale in the 1980s. Mike Bickle founded Kansas City Fellowship, the
home of the notorious Kansas City Prophets, in 1982. Simultaneously, other prophetic ministries
were gaining traction throughout the Church. Bill Hamon was the first to propose the idea of a
Prophetic Movement, and he was essential in giving birth to and pioneer the revival of prophets,
particularly in the shape of the Elijah group of prophets, as well as activating and educating the

saints in prophetic ministry. The significance of The Prophetic Movement is so huge that it has
affected the direction of the religion in our society.

Code of Hammurabi
The Code of Hammurabi is the most commonly mentioned cuneiform document in
specialized literature. Its first scholarly publication in 1902 resulted in forming a subfield of
comparative jurisprudence known as cuneiform law. Its importance stems from the fact that the
Code of Hammurabi was one of the only collections of regulations in the ancient Near East and
one of the first systems of law. The code of laws was organized in ordered groups so that
everyone who read the laws knew what was expected of them. The Code of Hammurabi is the
Old Babylonian period's longest extant text.
Cyrus the Great
Cyrus II of Persia, often identified as Cyrus the Great and by the Greeks as Cyrus, the
Elder, was the creator of the Achaemenid Empire. During his reign, the Empire encompassed all
of the preceding civilized states of the early Near East, grew greatly, and eventually defeated
most of Western Asia and most of Central Asia. Cyrus' kingdom was the greatest the world had
ever seen, stretching from the Mediterranean Sea and the Hellespont in the west to the Indus
River in the east. The Achaemenid Empire reached its zenith under his successors, stretching
from the Balkans and So...
