How a culture views the human figure varies greatly. Two cultures can infer and believe whatever they choose because there is no right way. Two cultures that perceive the human figure differently are The Greeks and The Olmecs. The Greeks love analyzing the human figure and are very passionate about human perfection. The Olmecs on the other hand had a very different perception on human perfection and the human figure. Two pieces of artwork that represent the Greek culture well are the Doryphoros Spear Bearer statue, a marble copy of a bronze original created by the Polykleitos during the Greek culture, and the Kritios Boy sculpture which is also a marble sculpture created around 480 BCE.

On the steppe lands of Mongolia, the deserts and oases Xinjiang, and the high plateau of Tibet the people secured the necessities of life. The monsoons of winter and summer affected the crops that could grow and the ?organization of agricultural labor?. The northern plains left two important technology and political traditions. More importantly, it developed philosophical and religious views. The people also constructed dikes, channels, basins, and walls for more population.

Chapter 2 New Civilizations in the Eastern and Western Hemispheres, 2200-250 B.C.E. Notes Chapter Thesis: In contrast to the river-valley civilizations of Mesopotamia, Egypt and the Indus Valley surveyed in the previous chapter, the complex societies examined in this chapter subsequently emerge in ecological conditions quite a bit more diverse, sometimes independently, sometimes under the influence of older centers. Whereas the river-valley civilizations were originally largely self-sufficient, each of the new civilizations discussed in this chapter and the next was shaped by the development of networks of long distance trade. Early China, 2000-221 B.C.E.
