comparing the environmental interaction and strategies applied by two cases from your textbook.

In your text, Price and Feinmann  (Images of the Past) examine several cases of cultures and ancient civilizations that interacted with and were influenced by the environment around them. For instance, Egyptian culture succeeded through agricultural development along the Nile, while Mayan civilization thrived as a result of an entirely different approach to agricultural development in the jungles of Mexico. But both of these civilizations were dependent on climatic and environmental stability and suffered when conditions changed.

For this paper, compare the environmental interaction and strategies applied by two cases from your textbook. What did these cases share in common and what was different? What problems did they experience?  Finally, are there any lessons to be learned from these cases?

You may compare any two civilizations of the old or new worlds for your synthesis, from any span of historical time.
