Eskimos-The Mysterious People | Lifestyle of Eskimos |How Eskimos survive| Do Eskimos live like earlyman

Image
The people whom we call ESKIMOS, lived in some of the world's coldest areas near the Arctic circle. It is believed that people originally belonged to Asia. From Asia, they migrated into the part of North America that is now known by the name Alaska. Then they gradually moved across the other Arctic regions of the continent and eventually came to live in four countries - The Soviet Union, Alaska in the United States of America, Canada, and Greenland. Eskimos of all these regions share similar physical characteristics. They have light brown skin, straight black hair, dark eyes, and a wide face. Their features are Mongolian, such as high cheekbones, small noses and often slanting eyes. However, they are taller than the Mongolians and are long skulled, unlike the Mongolians.

Physicians who gave us Electricity | the story of William Gibert

Image
We study 'Electricity' as a part of physics and also of engineering. So, it will be interesting to learn that some of the most significant discoveries relating to electricity were made by two medical men with no formal training in physics or engineering. The word electricity was first coined by Sir William Gibert, who served as Chief Physician to Queen Elizabeth I. He was a reputed physician, but his interest was not confined to medicine alone. He had an inquisitive mind and took a keen interest in the developments in other branches of science also. He was fascinated by the stories of Thales, the Greek philosopher, and his experiments with amber. Thales had discovered that amber, when rubbed with silk, attracted light objects like small splinters of wood, bits of paper, etc. Sir Gilbert experimented with several materials and found that in addition to amber, materials like sulfur, glass, and sealing wax also attracted light objects. He published his book De Magenta in th
