1 00:00:06,509 --> 00:00:11,630 good morning to you all i'm going to tell you what we are going to do today for social sciences so 2 00:00:11,630 --> 00:00:20,670 as usual we click on mi clase then we go to contenido open the book enter in click on the 3 00:00:20,670 --> 00:00:28,109 ancient ancient history the last day we saw the roman conquest so we are going to start to see 4 00:00:28,109 --> 00:00:36,530 how the Roman Hispania was, okay? And it's important this name Hispania, all right? Because 5 00:00:36,530 --> 00:00:44,250 the Romans called the Iberian Peninsula Hispania, all right? Remember that we said that they fought 6 00:00:44,250 --> 00:00:56,929 the Carthaginians first in what was called in Spanish Guerras Púnicas. I didn't mention that 7 00:00:56,929 --> 00:01:06,689 last day, but it's important for you to know that, okay? And once they fought all the Lusitanians and 8 00:01:06,689 --> 00:01:15,569 all the Celtiberians, they took control of Hispania, okay? So they started to build cities 9 00:01:15,569 --> 00:01:28,530 and they divided hispania into provinces okay and um in in this period the the life or of the people 10 00:01:28,530 --> 00:01:35,329 that used to live in the iranian peninsula uh changed a lot culturally and in many in many 11 00:01:35,329 --> 00:01:44,530 ways and these changes are called romanization romanization all right so what did the romans do 12 00:01:44,530 --> 00:01:52,930 They built cities and had different type of buildings like the theater, like the temple, 13 00:01:52,930 --> 00:02:02,849 different type of buildings. They also built aqueducts like the one in Segovia to carry water 14 00:02:02,849 --> 00:02:09,889 to the cities. They built roads and bridges to connect the cities to one another and they were 15 00:02:09,889 --> 00:02:19,169 called vias and there was more trade than before and it wasn't a really fair society because people 16 00:02:19,169 --> 00:02:28,849 was divided in in two it was divided into free people and slaves so if you were a slave your life 17 00:02:28,849 --> 00:02:36,289 wasn't very nice actually and as as we have seen the city walls they became bigger than in our 18 00:02:36,289 --> 00:02:45,569 other periods of history, and they were there to protect the city. And a very important aspect 19 00:02:46,289 --> 00:02:55,810 that was introduced by Romans, it was the law, the Roman laws that still apply nowadays in many 20 00:02:55,810 --> 00:03:01,969 things. They were very important, all right? I'm going to tell you in Spanish quickly. Well, I was 21 00:03:01,969 --> 00:03:08,930 saying that the Romans had called Hispania to the Iberian Peninsula, okay? And from there 22 00:03:08,930 --> 00:03:15,110 comes our name, the name of our country. I reminded you that they had had the wars 23 00:03:15,110 --> 00:03:21,590 against the Carthaginians, which I did not mention in the previous session, but which were called the Punic Wars, 24 00:03:21,590 --> 00:03:26,449 which were the wars that the Romans had with the Carthaginians. In fact, there were several, that's why they 25 00:03:26,449 --> 00:03:35,370 called the wars and all the wars in which the Iberian Peninsula was, because they are 26 00:03:35,370 --> 00:03:43,069 marked in the Second Punic War, okay? Well, they divided Spain into provinces, they were 27 00:03:43,069 --> 00:03:49,689 creating new cities and, well, a province used to be the city and the territory that surrounded 28 00:03:49,689 --> 00:03:56,229 that city, okay? And the Romans changed a lot the life of the people by building 29 00:03:56,229 --> 00:04:01,689 the new cities and by carrying their culture. And these changes are known as 30 00:04:01,689 --> 00:04:08,949 romanization, okay? Romanization, romanization, okay? Well, the Romans 31 00:04:08,949 --> 00:04:14,050 built cities that were much bigger than the previous ones and 32 00:04:14,050 --> 00:04:18,410 they had new types of constructions, such as this Roman theater, 33 00:04:18,410 --> 00:04:23,569 that you have seen a lot in movies or temples also built aqueducts 34 00:04:23,569 --> 00:04:28,790 to bring water to the cities from the mountain or from 35 00:04:28,790 --> 00:04:32,810 some spring to the city an example is the aqueduct of segovia that we will 36 00:04:32,810 --> 00:04:38,029 see that surely many of you have visited they also built roads and 37 00:04:38,029 --> 00:04:42,810 bridges to connect some cities with others and these roads 38 00:04:42,810 --> 00:04:50,910 they called them roads, ok? The trade improved a lot and it was 39 00:04:50,910 --> 00:04:55,290 amplified, there was more and more trade, okay? Between different cities 40 00:04:55,290 --> 00:04:59,629 of the empire. But it was not a very fair society 41 00:04:59,629 --> 00:05:05,189 because the Roman society was divided into two types of people. On the one hand 42 00:05:05,189 --> 00:05:11,189 there was the free people, the free people, and on the other hand there were the slaves, and if 43 00:05:11,189 --> 00:05:24,189 If you were a slave, your life was not very cool because you had a owner who lived for you and, well, you belonged to that person until he sold you or until you died, or whatever. 44 00:05:24,189 --> 00:05:31,189 We have seen that the walls of the city have become bigger and bigger throughout history to protect the city. 45 00:05:31,189 --> 00:05:57,009 Y había mencionado un aspecto muy importante que era el caso de las leyes romanas, que de hecho ahora, hoy en día, se conoce como el derecho romano y se sigue estudiando. La gente que quiere estudiar para ser abogado sigue estudiando el derecho romano porque muchas de las cosas que se introdujeron por primera vez en el derecho romano aún hoy en día se utilizan. ¿De acuerdo? 46 00:05:57,970 --> 00:06:05,810 Well, let's go on. What more about the romanization and the culture from Romans in the 47 00:06:05,810 --> 00:06:14,529 Iberian Peninsula? So, the most important thing is that they introduce their language, Latin, okay, 48 00:06:14,529 --> 00:06:24,370 and modern Spanish comes from Latin, but not only modern Spanish, also Italian or Portuguese or 49 00:06:24,370 --> 00:06:30,529 French or some British words they come from Latin and this is why some of these words in different 50 00:06:30,529 --> 00:06:38,050 languages they are very similar all right the Romans also introduced their religion 51 00:06:38,930 --> 00:06:46,290 at the beginning they used to believe in many gods okay they have a god for everything the god of the 52 00:06:46,290 --> 00:06:56,930 sun, the god of the land, the god of the wind, and each one had a name. For example, we had Jupiter 53 00:06:56,930 --> 00:07:04,209 that was the king of all the gods, or Venus that was the goddess of love and beauty. Later on, 54 00:07:05,089 --> 00:07:13,649 Romans adopted Christianity, they became Christians and they introduced this religion 55 00:07:13,649 --> 00:07:20,610 to the Iberian Peninsula. Okay, they also introduced the schools, okay, the Roman schools, 56 00:07:20,610 --> 00:07:27,329 and it's an important thing because if you had a Roman education you may become something important 57 00:07:27,329 --> 00:07:34,610 in this society, okay, and we have for example Seneca that was a very important Roman thinker 58 00:07:34,610 --> 00:07:41,009 and he was born in Hispania, okay, so this is a very positive thing that if you had this Roman 59 00:07:41,009 --> 00:07:52,050 education no matter where you were born you may succeed okay and we will see later on that 60 00:07:53,009 --> 00:08:00,209 even some emperors they came from from they were born in hispania okay 61 00:08:01,410 --> 00:08:08,850 and they also introduced their art okay the roman style sculptures paintings and mosaics 62 00:08:08,850 --> 00:08:15,810 Okay, so we can see, for example, a writing where I'm sure you can see numbers in it, 63 00:08:15,810 --> 00:08:22,350 because I'm aware that you write the date in Roman numbers when you do it in maths. 64 00:08:22,350 --> 00:08:30,290 And here is a sculpture of Seneca and an example of a mosaic, and I'm sure you have seen any, 65 00:08:30,290 --> 00:08:41,210 with very little pieces of stone, they make these drawings, okay, and compositions. 66 00:08:41,210 --> 00:08:47,169 Okay, let's go for Spanish. Well, the Romanization also changed the culture, 67 00:08:47,169 --> 00:08:53,750 and the most important aspect is that the Romans brought us their language, Latin, 68 00:08:53,750 --> 00:08:59,389 which is the root of modern Spanish, but not only modern Spanish, but also 69 00:08:59,389 --> 00:09:05,269 Portuguese, Italian, French, part of English. And of course, that's why there are 70 00:09:05,269 --> 00:09:10,309 many words in different languages that are similar, many words from these 71 00:09:10,309 --> 00:09:14,129 countries, in English or in French or in Portuguese, because they have this same 72 00:09:14,129 --> 00:09:18,350 Latin root. Also, the Romans introduced their 73 00:09:18,350 --> 00:09:22,110 religion. At first, the Romans believed in many gods. This is called 74 00:09:22,110 --> 00:09:27,389 polytheism. The Romans were polytheists because they believed in many gods. They had 75 00:09:27,389 --> 00:09:32,590 a god for the god of the sea, the god of the sun, the god of war, they had a god for 76 00:09:32,590 --> 00:09:37,990 everything, for example they had Jupiter who was the god of all gods or they had Venus 77 00:09:37,990 --> 00:09:45,370 who was the goddess of love and beauty, but later on the Romans became Christians 78 00:09:45,370 --> 00:09:53,049 and introduced Christianity in the Iberian Peninsula, they also introduced Roman education 79 00:09:53,049 --> 00:09:58,929 and the Roman schools and this was something positive because no matter where you were born 80 00:09:58,929 --> 00:10:05,529 if you had a Roman education you could become an important person and the example 81 00:10:05,529 --> 00:10:12,509 we have here is Seneca who was a philosopher and a very important politician who was born 82 00:10:12,509 --> 00:10:17,210 in Spain but we will see in the future that there were also Roman emperors who 83 00:10:17,210 --> 00:10:25,009 had been born in Spain. And they also introduced their art, well, the Roman sculptures, 84 00:10:25,009 --> 00:10:31,490 their types of painting, their mosaics. Well, here we can see examples of his legacy, for example, 85 00:10:31,490 --> 00:10:36,409 we have a Latin inscription, which I am sure you can see numbers because I know that you write 86 00:10:36,409 --> 00:10:43,950 the dates in mathematics in Roman numbers, so look, we still use it. Here we have 87 00:10:43,950 --> 00:10:49,330 escultura típica romana de Seneca, que es el filósofo que hemos mencionado hace un momento, 88 00:10:49,889 --> 00:10:56,669 y pues un ejemplo de un mosaico que está en Sevilla. Ok, after that we are going to do 89 00:10:56,669 --> 00:11:04,850 activity 4 and activity 5 in the online book. Activity 4. What do we have to do? 90 00:11:05,629 --> 00:11:11,269 Read the definition and write the word. Leemos la definición y escribimos. This structure 91 00:11:11,269 --> 00:11:19,029 carrying water to Roman cities? ¿Qué estructura era esta? Seguro que la sabéis todos. Y el número 92 00:11:19,029 --> 00:11:24,570 once, fijaos, what do you think these Latin words mean? No quiero que me las pongáis en inglés, 93 00:11:24,730 --> 00:11:30,429 quiero que me las pongáis en español. La primera es posible que os dé un poquito así de que os 94 00:11:30,429 --> 00:11:35,889 podáis equivocar, pero fijaos en las otras palabras, que son palabras en latín, y quiero 95 00:11:35,889 --> 00:11:40,590 que veáis lo parecidas que son a las palabras en español, para que os hagáis una idea, 96 00:11:41,250 --> 00:11:46,710 ¿de acuerdo? Entonces quiero que me escribáis las que significan números, o gemelos, o octo, 97 00:11:47,029 --> 00:11:53,610 o lingua, a ver si me podéis decir qué significa cada una. Ok, y ya sabéis que tenemos las 98 00:11:53,610 --> 00:12:00,070 actividades del online book, las que hacemos en este caso de la página 99, but we also 99 00:12:00,070 --> 00:12:07,429 have to do the activities on the plus zone so we click on the plus zone we go to digital activities 100 00:12:07,429 --> 00:12:13,830 and we are going to do the next ones that are number five what did romans introduce in the 101 00:12:13,830 --> 00:12:19,509 iberian peninsula and we have to click on the ones we think they were introduced by romans okay 102 00:12:20,070 --> 00:12:26,070 number six sentences are these true or false so you click on true or false 103 00:12:30,070 --> 00:12:36,070 what things the Romans introduced in the Iberian Peninsula because the ones you think were introduced by the Romans 104 00:12:36,070 --> 00:12:43,190 because you click on it, okay, well, this is all for today a big hug for everyone and see you later
