Discovery of a Time Capsule When defining an era such as the 1960s, a lot of images come to mind: the march on Washington, psychedelic music, peace signs, the antiwar movement, the assassinations of prominent political leaders, and so on. In this Assignment, you will explain which of the events, people, and symbols best define the 1960s. Assignment It is the year 2325. You are a prominent archaeologist who has just been summoned to a dig site because your colleagues have made a unique discovery: a time capsule from the 1960s that was buried long ago.

Explain why each of these is especially important in defining the era of the 1960s. 3. Based upon these items you have found, conclude your paper with a solid paragraph that explains one major lesson that you have learned from the 1960s. Hint: The objects you find in your time capsule do not necessarily have to be material items, but can also be events, trends, fads, etc. For example, your time capsule may contain assassinations, the Vietnam War, or the women's movement. Also, feel free to be creative with the types of items that you find. For example, perhaps you have found a letter written by an antiwar protester to the government, or a song by famous 1960s musician, or perhaps a piece of artwork by a famous 1960s visual artist.

Introduction

The 1960s was a very exciting year. Some historical events majorly dominated the
period. For example, the Civil Rights Protest, Vietnam War, the assassinations of both Martin
Luther King and John F Kennedy, the landing of Neil Armstrong to the moon, and the Cuban
Missile Crisis. The paper would describe each of the events one by one. Besides, the essay would
elaborate as to why each of these happenings was especially important in defining the era of the
1960s. Lastly, based on these events that were identified, the paper would conclude with a solid
paragraph that explains one major lesson that was learned from the 1960s.
Vietnam War
The time capsule contained an article that elaborated on the Vietnam War. One of the
most unpopular war and the longest war that took place during the 1960s in American history is
the Vietnam War (Herring, 2013). The war started when Bien Phu the leader Vietnam attacked
France as a result of the anti-colonial war. France got financial support from the USA that
enabled them to overpower the leader, and a peace agreement was signed in Geneva to end the
war. This event made Vietnam and Cambodia gain their independence. However, the civil war
erupted again because the southern parts of Vietnam were not pleased with the unification
election that was being conducted (Herring, 2013). The war led to the death of many people in
the country. The war is still being talked about whether it was appropriate for the USA to take
part in the war that they actually lost.
