1. Listen to part of a lecture from a history class.

2. So, we’ve been talking about life in ancient times, and today I want to discuss an important aspect of ancient civilizations: the economy.

3. As the economies of ancient civilizations developed over time and became more complex, certain changes tended to occur.

4. Let’s talk about a couple of the changes that happened as the economies of ancient civilizations developed.

5. One of the key economic changes was in the way that people paid for goods and services.

6. As their civilizations developed, many began to use currency or money to pay for goods and services rather than trading with each other.

7. A monetary system made it easier to make purchases because people could buy from anyone, not just those who wanted to trade.

8. So, for example, say a man who baked bread wanted a new coat.

9. Well, with a monetary system, the man could buy a new coat from the coat maker with money.

10. This was better than trading because the coat maker might not want to trade a coat for the bread maker’s bread.

11. Now, another economic change was that ancient civilizations began to acquire items from far away.

12. In the past, people would only trade locally, but as their civilizations developed, they began trading with other people in distant places, so they were able to acquire goods they wouldn’t have otherwise.

13. For example, the ancient Romans never had silk fabric until they started trading with the Chinese, who lived a great distance from them.

Ancient people have an obvious In ancient times, one major change in payment was the introduction of payment, currency, which occurs when the currency appears. The currency is like the money. So in this way, the This change made it easier for people living in the ancient time do not just to buy things because they didn't have a to rely on direct trade to one person to another certain person. It's easy to purchase because you can get the things from everyone. with specific individuals. For example, the if a bread maker wants to have wanted a coat, so he could not just make trade to simply buy it from the coat seller who maker without needing to trade bread for a coat, which might not always work out. Another important change was that ancient civilizations started to acquire goods from distant places. For instance, the Romans began trading with the Chinese to get silk, which they couldn't find nearby. This long-distance trade allowed them to access valuable items they previously didn't want to have a bread. And another is they acquire items from far space, like the Roman get to Chinese, and the things they cannot get nearby.have.

Sword

According to the lecture, there are basically two significant economic changes that occurred in ancient civilizations. The first change is about the monetary system, the currency developed in involves the development of a civilization. monetary system. For example, if a person wants wanted to buy a new coat from a coat-maker, he can just could use his money to buy this instead of trading through bartering. And This is beneficial because it allows for easier transactions; the coat-maker may might not want to trade directly for bread, but with him directly, money, they can exchange goods without complications. The second change is related to trade and the money can play a big role in this process. Second, take ability of ancient civilizations, like the Romans, to acquire goods from distant places. For instance, the ancient Romans as an example. The ancient Romans lived in distant regions from China. However, they can acquire were able to obtain silk from China with China, which they couldn't find locally. This expansion of trade routes and the help use of the monetary system. This really improves money greatly enhanced their access to valuable resources and improved their overall prosperity.

George

As the economy of ancient civilization civilizations developed, there are some specific changes tend tended to occur. The first change is was the appearance introduction of currency, which means money. Because people People began to use money to trade with others, and for trade, making it will be more convenient for everyone. For example, if a brand bread maker wants wanted to buy a coat, they can just he could simply use money. And sometimes money instead of trading bread. Sometimes, the coat maker don't might not want to brand. And the trade for bread. The second change is was that people started trading with others in different regions. For instance, the Romans began to trade for silk with people in other regions. For example, Roma transport sold with Chinese.the Chinese, which they couldn't get locally.

In this lesson, the professor shows us apparently discusses two economy economic changes in daily life. ancient civilizations. The first change is the how people will change their way began to buy and sell or buy the products. products differently. In the past, the people were willing to buy the product with the often exchanged goods and also for the service. But this is not services, which wasn't very comfortable for everyone, suitable convenient for everyone. The professor gives us an example of For example, if a brand maker. If you want bread maker wanted to buy a thing from the cooker, coat, he will use this instead of training face-to-face. had to find a coat maker who was willing to trade. This wasn't always easy. The second economic change is they can change their that people started to trade for products from every faraway places, not only in the local places. just locally. For example, instance, the professor said mentioned that some places people used the ancient Romans could not get silk until they began trading with the Chinese. This allowed them to buy the products in their local place, but acquire goods they can't get the product in China, so they used to couldn't find the Chinese product everywhere.nearby.

Martin

The professor will talk talked about two important economic changes in ancient civilizations. The first change was the economic change, use of money instead of trading. For example, if a man who baked bread wanted a new coat, he could simply pay for example, use it with money rather than trading. trying to trade bread for a coat, which could be difficult if the coat maker didn't want bread. The second change was that trade expanded from local to distant exchanges. For instance, if you want the ancient Romans initially only traded with people nearby, but eventually they began trading with distant places like China. This allowed them to exchange a quote, you can use money better than trading. The next example is exchange locally become exchange far from people. For example, in Romance, people first just exchange people locally, but after acquire goods, such as silk, that they become exchange with Chinese.couldn't find locally.

Richard

The professor in the lecture talked about two changes occur that occurred as the civilization civilizations developed. First of all is all, there was the appearance introduction of currency. As the civilization developed, civilizations progressed, people find found a way to replace the trade which is complex, and instead they use currency complex trading systems with currency, allowing them to trade buy whatever they want. wanted more easily. For example, a man want who wanted to buy a cloth. He coat didn't have to exchange items, but items; instead, he can could use the currency money because of the monetary system. Second is The second change was the distant trade. expansion of trade over long distances. For example, instance, the Romans started to travel to China to trade February and silk for silk, which they couldn't get locally. This made it much easier for them to acquire valuable goods from China easily.faraway places.

Kevin

Let's talk about the life in the ancient time, times, and there are two important economic changes. First The first change is the way the in how people pay paid for the goods, they always use money, goods. They used to trade items directly, but then they change started using money. This made it easier for them to use money, then trading, because they can buy from anyone, this is an example. A anyone. For example, a man who wants a coat, and he coat can use money to buy it from the coat seller, then use the seller instead of trying to trade bread to trade, for a coat, which might not work because maybe the coat seller doesn't may not want to bread. The second change is that they began trading with people from far away. In ancient times, they mostly traded locally, but as civilizations developed, they could trade with distant places. For instance, the bread. And second is they can trade ancient Romans began trading with people far away the Chinese, which allowed them to acquire silk, a fabric that was very valuable and from other places, because in ancient time they just trade locally, and now they can trade from far away, like Romans, they don't trade with Chinese, and these things are very expensive.not available nearby.

Zao

The professor talked about two economic changes that occurred in ancient civilizations. The first change is that the economy become became more complex. It seems People started using currency or money to pay for goods and services instead of just trading items. For example, a man could buy a coat from a coat maker using money instead of having to trade bread for it. This made transactions easier because the coat maker might not want bread in exchange for a coat. The second change is that trade expanded beyond local areas. In the past, people only traded with those nearby, but as civilizations developed, they began trading with distant places. For instance, the ancient Romans started trading with the Chinese, which allowed them to acquire valuable goods like silk that they couldn't get locally. So, to summarize, the two changes are that the way that people pay for good service is, they use currency and they use money. For example, they buy a coke from a coke maker and they use money. And in the past, they will use one thing to change to make other things. Secondly, in the past, they will trade locally. What more? Now they will trade a distant place. For example, the Romans, they usually will just trade in a local place. But now they were trading with Chinese and there is a very far distance between them. So there are two changes. The first is become economy became more complex with the use of money, and the second is become trade became more global.

August

Here are two Two economic changes that occurred in ancient civilizations, as mentioned by the lecturer mentioned in lecturer, are the lecture. So use of money instead of trading and the first is that acquisition of goods from distant places. First, people started began to not trading with each other but use money to buy from goods rather than trading directly with each other. And here is an example For example, the professor mentioned in the lecture. It's lecturer talked about the a bread maker and who wanted to buy a coat. Instead of trading bread for a coat, he could simply pay the cold maker. The bread coat maker can not buy with money, which is easier since the cold from the cold maker because the cold coat maker might not want bread in exchange. The second change was that ancient civilizations started to trade with distant countries. For instance, the bread since ancient Romans did not have silk fabric until they are not began trading with each other. And the second change is that people start Chinese. This allowed them to acquire items from another country and distant country from far away. And here is an example goods that in the ancient Roman country, they are hard to getting the sick but when they started to trading with China, the expensive price become lower.were not available locally.

Victoria

No, this is actually going In ancient civilizations, one major economic change was the shift from trading goods directly to be more using currency. For example, instead of an economic challenge a baker having to find someone who wanted bread in exchange for us. We might sort of have to use some of the cash we a coat, he could simply pay for the new products or different activities. But we can still manage coat with money. This made buying and selling much easier. Another change was the expansion of trade networks. Civilizations began to pay for trade with distant places, like how the new stuff.Romans started trading with the Chinese to get silk, which was very valuable to them. These changes really transformed how people interacted economically.

Vicky

The Aukari in Aksai celebration is about lecture discussed two economic chains. And changes in ancient civilizations. The first change was in how people paid for things. Before, people mainly traded goods directly, like exchanging food for other items. But later on, they started using money, which made it easier to buy what they needed. For example, if a baker wanted a coat, he could simply pay the first is the way the people's use coat maker with money instead of trying to trade bread for things will be changed. In the before, the a coat. The second change was that people just can change the food by training something. But after that, they can use the money by the things is more convenient for the people. Like the people by code can just find the code maker, don't find the other ones. And the second is about they have more place began to trade. trade with distant places. In the past, they just can trade later, and after mostly traded locally, but as civilizations developed, they can trade in different place. Like in the before, they don't could trade with people.people from far away. For instance, the ancient Romans started trading with the Chinese to get silk, which they couldn't find nearby.

Leon

There are two economic changes that occur occurred in asset liberalization and the ancient civilizations. The first one change is that people nowadays do not use trade to trade each one's wanted and they use started using money to buy it. So like the example instead of trading goods directly. For example, if a bread producer wants maker wanted a coat, they could simply buy it with money instead of having to get our coat from the coat producer so they do not need find someone who wanted to trade it because bread for a coat. This made transactions easier. The second change is that ancient civilizations began trading with distant places. In the coat producer may not need to want to buy past, people mostly traded locally, which required a lot of travel. But with the bread but if development of trade networks, they use money it will be easier to do could acquire goods from faraway lands without the business and the second one is about the distance of the players because before if they trade they should take a long travel to each other's country but now they do not needjourneys.

Tina

The lecture is talking about discusses economic changes that occur occurred in Asian ancient civilizations, and the focusing on two key trend is that trends. First, people pay for resources and carry began to use money rather than trade. The monitoring is easy to practice, and the professor gives two examples. First, the breed customers want to buy instead of trading goods directly. For example, if a bread maker wanted a new coat, and they will he could simply buy the it with money instead of trying to find a coat with money, not maker who wanted bread in exchange. This made transactions easier. The second change was that ancient civilizations started to trade with the coat, because it's impossible. This is the first change. And the second change is that in distant places. In the past, people trade they mostly traded locally, but as their economies developed, they could acquire goods from far away. For instance, the Romans began trading with the development of the economy, they can acquire what they want. For example, the woman wants fabric, so they trade with Chinese, and they can acquire silk and its fabric.Chinese to get silk, which was highly valued but not available nearby.

Bobby

The lesson in lecture from the professor talks about important developments in ancient economies, particularly how money changed trade. Before money, people mostly traded goods directly, which could be complicated. For example, a history development and it's about baker would need to find a coat maker who wanted bread in alchemy and it's how exchange for a coat. But once money was introduced, it made things easier because the money became and baker could simply pay for the coat with money. Another change was that ancient civilizations began to trade people with distant countries. For example, the Romans started trading with the Chinese to pay and some product when the money happens people can use money acquire silk, which they could not find locally. This expanded their access to pay some products and also they can help them to trade for another country and for example if people first come to China and they can use some money to pay their local productfrom far away.

Andy

One main feature reflects of ancient civilizations is that the ancient peoples their economy developed is over time. As the economy system. So when the economy system becomes became more complex, it means that it's developed. Here is one aspect. When people started using currency to pay to another with currency, it means that they will trade to anyone. It means that it's improved. for goods and services instead of just trading. For example, if a bread maker wants to get wanted a coat, in the currency system, it will just he could simply use money to buy. It buy it. This system is better than trade trading because the coat maker maybe might not want to trade as exchange a coat for bread. The second aspect Another important change is that you trade another location, which means that if the person trade to another location, it will get improvement. There is an example. Romans trade to Chinese, and then it get feedback and scale. Then it is reflected that the local person ancient civilizations began to trade with another person.distant places. For instance, the Romans didn't have silk fabric until they started trading with the Chinese. This long-distance trade allowed them to acquire goods that were not available locally, which improved their economy.

Joe

The professor's main topic is professor discusses two important economic changes that occurred in ancient civilization. So with civilizations. First, as civilizations developed, the development way people paid for goods changed significantly. Instead of the civilization, the payment approach is changing. The money has appeared, so there is no need to trade. trading items directly, they started using money. For instance, sometimes imagine there is example, if a man who baked bread wanted to buy a coat, he could simply pay for it with bread, he wants money instead of trying to trade his bread. This made transactions easier because the cloud. With the monetary, the man just needs to buy it. The buying, the using of money avoids problems if the owner of the cloud don't coat maker might not want to trade with him, for bread. Second, ancient civilizations began to trade with distant places. For instance, the bread. Second, it can buy the things with a long distance, like a Roman trader buy Romans were able to acquire silk from China.China, which was something they couldn't find locally. This long-distance trade allowed them to access goods that were highly valued.

Karl

The point topic is about life in ancient time, the times, focusing on economic change. changes. The first economic change is change to pay was the way people paid for goods and services. The first time Initially, they just paid for traded items like tools and codes, coats, but then they have developed a monetary system. And the system, which made transactions easier. The second change is about was in trade region. regions. At first time, first, people traded locally, but once civilizations were established, they don't have civilization, they just trade locally. After they established the civilization, they started began to explore wider markets. For example, the goods selling market. The example is Greek. They do Greeks did not have silk at first, initially, but after they trade started trading with China, they come were able to China and trade with Chinese, they get acquire silk and sell it in Greek at Greece for a high price.

Carol

In this history class, we can know learned about the economies of ancient civilizations in economic and this has civilizations. One important change was that people started using money instead of trading goods directly. For example, if a one story is about that some people there sell the bread, but bread maker wanted a coat in the winter, he wants to make a coat, then he can make the could simply use money to buy one. And then it instead of trying to explain that, they can use trade bread for a coat, which might not work if the money to buy something, they are more confident coat maker didn’t want bread. This made transactions easier and more environment, but in efficient. Another change was that ancient civilizations began to trade with distant places. For instance, the past, maybe someone buy something for the transport, like if you buy something, you will use two bread Romans were able to buy one coat, but maybe the other one don't need your some food, so like this, then they, get silk from China, which they create the money to.didn’t have locally. This long-distance trade allowed them to acquire valuable goods that were not available nearby.

Keven

In the lecture, the professor illustrated two important changes in the ancient economy, which will bring great effect to the older generation. economy that had a significant impact. First of all, the people realized that they will started using money to pay for the goods and resources. They will pay the money services instead of trading each other. It will be directly. This made transactions more efficient and benefit each other. And secondly, they will beneficial for everyone involved. For example, a baker could now buy a coat from a coat maker without needing to trade in great distance bread for it, which was much easier. Secondly, ancient civilizations began to trade with distant places. At ancient time, people only In the past, trade locally, so was mostly local, which limited the resources are limited. available. However, when as they try started to take the ship travel further, like to somewhere far from the local, just like China, they will get some more resources could acquire goods that they can't find in their local places.weren't available locally, such as silk, which was highly valued.

Camilia

for In this lecture is to talk lecture, we talked about the economy of ancient civilizations and develop this how it developed over time and the first the time. One key word for that is they will pay on change was the way people paid for the traders goods and use services. Instead of trading directly, they started using money, which made transactions much easier. For example, if a man who baked bread wanted a new coat, he could simply buy it with money and instead of trading and there's an example having to find someone willing to trade for that there's a new code that the man he want to get but instead of buy it they will not trade but buy and just because it's bread. This was more convenient for everyone involved. Another important change was that ancient civilizations began to trade with distant places. In the past, they mostly traded locally, but as they developed, they started to acquire goods from far away. For instance, the ancient Romans didn't have silk until they began trading with the Chinese. This allowed them and at the same time there is a man and there is another example for the economy to get valuable items that is they maybe only have the past season only and there is a locally things that they need but they need to travel to different places and since they travel to China and they can got the soap that they never had so they will use high price to buy this just because there is no where else to have this kind of thingsweren't available nearby.

Eric

So, here I have two types of information. These are the ones that I'm I’m going to describe talk about two economic changes that occurred in ancient civilizations based on the lecture. First, as civilizations developed, people started using currency instead of trading goods directly. This made it easier for people to you. So, this is buy what they needed without having to find someone who wanted to trade. For example, a pretty good form baker could buy a coat from a coat maker using money instead of information having to trade bread for a coat. Second, ancient civilizations began to trade with distant places. For instance, the Romans started trading with the Chinese to get silk, which they couldn’t find locally. This expansion of trade allowed them to acquire goods from far away that I can use. You can take a look at it. Now I'm going to show you this one. So, it's a different way that we do coding. So, if you want a brand that can feature in some way, if there is a monolith, it's attributable to this game. So, this is a good example. So, you can look at it in a variety of ways. So, just like this. So, it's pretty deep. So, let's see.were highly valued.

Joyce

In the lecture, the professor explains two economic changes that happened occurred in ancient civilizations. First The first change is the pay for goods, like the way people paid. And actually they use paid for goods. They started using currency, and actually it's more which made transactions easier than compared to the past. For example, if the a man want wanted to buy a new coat, he don't didn't need to exchange trade his bread with the bread to the sellers seller, because maybe the seller don't need the might not want bread or don't want it. And the in exchange. The second change is that ancient civilizations began to not just live in a trade beyond their local sales, not just live in a local sales, like a woman will sell areas. Instead of only trading locally, they started to acquire goods from distant places. For instance, the ancient Romans began trading with Chinese.the Chinese, which allowed them to obtain silk fabric that they couldn't find nearby.

Michael

The decadent talk lecture talked about the ancient time economic development in ancient times, and there are two the coupled Developments the key developments to mention. The first is the kids Kid ways way people paid for goods. In ancient times, people often traded items to pay the goods Developed by get what they needed, but using money made this process easier. For example, if a person who raised chickens wanted to buy bread, they could simply use money In to make the ancient times people will to have purchase. This is better than trading because the goods by the trading and Use money is easier by trading. Why? because For example if the breeding eggs baker might not want to buy the breed accept chickens in exchange for bread. The second development is about trade and travel. If people wanted goods that weren't available in their area, they can use money easier needed to travel to get it But if they use their breed may the sellers don't want to have this breed. The second is about the traveling If people want to have some goods that's not Have in this own place. They need to have traveling to get it them. Although the price is very highcost of traveling might be high, it allowed them to acquire items from distant places that they couldn't find locally.

Alice

In this lecture, the professor explains two important economic trends changes that occurred in ancient civilizations. It talks about the economy, the development over time and the curve First, as these civilizations developed, people began to use money instead of change and development. The key to increase the people is to pay it. First, trading goods directly with each other frees everyone. The new code demands less money. other. This made it easier for everyone to buy what they needed, as they didn't have to find someone who wanted to trade for what they had. For example, a baker could buy a coat from a coat maker without having to trade bread for it. Second, ancient civilizations started to create far away, they trade with other people with Chinese hiding. They trade distant places, which allowed them to acquire goods that weren't available locally. For instance, the Romans began trading with the Chinese because the Chinese is a good trade man to get silk, which was highly valued in their society. This expanded their access to different products and they will pay for them. And quickly, far away, they trade.enriched their economy.

Selina

The professor mainly talks about the Asian economy economic development in the ancient time when the civilizations, highlighting how people changed their methods of payment as society changes, the evolved. For example, instead of just trading goods, people paid way with changes, like the trading or paid by money. And because in that time it's easy began to purchase, for example, use money, which made it easier to make purchases. For instance, if a man wants wanted to buy a new coat, and he wants to could simply pay with money instead of trading bread for money because a coat, which might not be a favorable trade for the salesmen don't want coat maker. Another significant change was that ancient civilizations started to trade from with distant places. In the coat to the bread. And another example is it can travel too far away because it past, trade was mostly local, but as they developed, they began to trade in acquire goods from far away, like the distance. And when ancient Romans who began trading with the people travel Chinese to China, it will be sold because it is get silk, which was highly priced.valued.

Claire

In this lecture, they are explained two economic chains that changes in ancient civilizations are open in explained. First, the Asian civilizations. And the economics is very important to development chains developing the pay and money easier. And the first example is give the man with the brand and of currency made it easier for people to buy the coat. And goods. For example, if they get the new a man who baked bread wanted to buy a coat, they will give he could simply pay the coat maker some monies. But with money instead of trading bread for a coat, which might not work if the coat maker won't didn’t want bread. This system of using money simplified transactions. The second change is that ancient civilizations began to trade with distant places, like China. Before, they mostly traded locally, but as they developed, they started to acquire goods from far away. For example, the Romans began trading with the Chinese to get their brand because this is economic chains. And second reason is about go far away, like go to China. And China is very far silk, which was highly valued and is very high price. So the taker won't go there and they won't speak anything about Medicare there too on the place.not available nearby.

Jenny

As I mentioned, there are two economic phenomenon changes in ancient time, and the times. The first one is that it can people began to pay for the goods and the services by using the currency. Because before that, Before this change, they always would trade items directly with the people that want the things, but now they can buy anything from anyone, like the man wants others, which could be limiting. For example, if a baker wanted a new coat, he had to find someone who wanted to trade for bread. But with a monetary system, he could simply buy a new coat from the firm. And the coat maker using money. The second one change is that they can ancient civilizations started to acquire items from far away places, in faraway places. Previously, trade was mostly local, but as they developed, they began trading with distant places. For example, regions. A good example is the Western countries never use ancient Romans, who didn't have silk fabric until they can make started trading with the Chinese. This trade with China, and then they can get the fabric from Chinese. And that's why the economic become allowed them to obtain highly prized goods that weren't available nearby, which made their economies more complex in the ancient time.complex.

Both economies have saw some changes. First The first change is the was in trade. In ancient times, people would trade one item for another, which limited their options. But over time, people may trade one thing to other things. This will limit a lot of area. But a lot of time ago, people will found discovered currency, that which means money. They could use money to buy anything what they want. And wanted, and some people don't dislike your trade things, so they can use money. So money could make you more area and more fields preferred not to trade items directly, so money allowed for more opportunities to buy and to buy. A sell. The second change is the was related to distance. In ancient time, times, people couldn't couldn’t buy anything without goods from outside their own countries. And if you come back However, as time ago, went on, people could using some people began to go travel to another country and other countries to trade overseas. These are the two important changes in this the economies of ancient time of economies.civilizations.

According to the lecture, here there are two main changes in the economies of the Asian economy. And one ancient civilizations. The first change is the way how people paid for goods. Instead of just trading, they started using currency, which allowed them to pay. And this means that people will buy things by currency, but not just trading. So it can buy things from everyone. anyone. For example, a bread maker wants could use money to buy a coat. And he can use the currency to buy it, but not bread, since coat from the coat seller may maker, instead of trying to trade bread for the coat, which might not work if the coat maker didn't want the bread. Another key point The second change is that people can ancient civilizations began to trade far away, so with distant places. They could acquire goods that they can trade more and go further. And one example is that people want to buy weren't available locally. For instance, the fabric, so they can transport to Romans started trading with the Chinese to get the silver.silk, which was highly valued and not found in their local area.

In the lecture, the professor explained two economic changes that occurred in ancient civilizations. The first change is the way was in how people pay paid for goods. In the old time, ancient times, people usually exchanged their goods. And the change is goods through trade. However, over time, they began to use currency rather than instead of trading. For example, if a man with who baked bread wants wanted to buy a coat, he can could easily get pay for it with money instead of trying to trade bread for a coat, which might not be desirable for the coat by paying it rather than trading it. And the maker. The second change is was that people began to trade over long distances. In the past, people could only trade locally, but as civilizations advanced, they can trade in distance. Because in started to acquire goods from faraway places. For instance, the early time, people can't purchase something from a long distance, far away. So they can't...ancient Romans began trading with the Chinese to get silk, which was highly valued and not available nearby.

In this lecture, the professors are talking professor talks about some development of developments in the ancient economy. And there There are two key changes that happened. One is that occurred. First, people began to use currency. They use money rather than currency instead of trading. So This made it is easier to buy any items from anyone. And there is an example. If the brand For example, if a bread maker wants wanted to buy a coat, he could simply pay the coat maker wants with money, rather than trying to buy the brand from the brand maker. So they will use money. trade bread for a coat, which might not work out. Another example important change is that they acquire ancient civilizations started acquiring items from large distant places, such as faraway places. For instance, the Romans buy silk from began trading with the Chinese. They buy at high prices.Chinese to get silk, which was very valuable to them. This was a big change because before, they mostly traded locally.

The lecture talk talks about the aspects about economy, currency, the economy of ancient civilizations, focusing on how people often began to use money currency to trade and instead of just bartering. In the past, people traded locally, but as civilizations developed, they think started to trade with distant places. For example, the money can buy for everything. The Asian time they trade locally and also trade in distant place. The lecture give an example about Romans began trading with the Chinese to acquire silk, which is in distant place, the one teams of customers trade into Chinese and it's was highly valued but not available locally. This change allowed them to get goods from far away from that they couldn't find in their countries, so they get a high price in the own countries.

Raymond

In the lecture, the professor talked about Asian civilization ancient civilizations and he talked about the way how people pay, the way they pay paid for money. And he goods. He gave us two examples. One examples of economic changes. The first example is about a man who wants to buy a coat. Instead of trading bread for a coat, they will he can use a different way money, which makes it easier to buy what he needs. The second example is about how ancient civilizations began to trade different things. If with people from far away, like the man won't buy Romans trading with the coat, they will Chinese for silk. This change allowed them to get goods that were not trade the coat like bread, use bread for others' products, a way to sell it. And another is that trade with different people. The professor gave us an example about trade with Chinese, that they need to use the way that Chinese like.available locally.

Economic change changes that occurred in ancient civilization civilizations include the use of money and the expansion of trade. The first change is that people they began to use money to buy the projects rather than trending other things and so the products instead of trading goods directly. This made it easier for people to get what they can get profits and buy the things wanted because they want and it's much more easier and for example didn't have to find someone who wanted to trade with them. For example, if one a man wants wanted to buy the things it's something, it would be more difficult for him to exchange and trending, goods, but if he has money it's more easier than others and another economic with money, it’s much easier. The second change is the that people started selling their products not just in their local areas but also in faraway places. For instance, they could sell their product goods in foreign markets, which often allowed them to charge higher prices, like how the Romans traded for silk from not just the region they live also the other place for example the people they sell their product in the other foreigner and they can sell but in China it's sell China, which was very high pricevaluable.

The lecture introduced the two economic changes of the economic in the ancient civilization. And the civilizations. The first one change is about the way they related to how people paid for goods and goods; they changed began to use currency instead of just trading with one another. For example, if a baker wanted to buy a coat, using currency would make it easier because the use of currency coat maker might not want to trade and instead of trading each other. And the example is about the baker wanting to exchange the a coat with the for bread. And if you use currency, it will be more convenient if the coat trader didn't want to exchange for the bread. And the The second one is about change involved acquiring goods from distant places. In the distant place. And past, people mostly traded locally, but as civilizations developed, they started trading with faraway places. For instance, the ancient people will Romans began to trade with the Chinese to acquire silk, which was highly valued and not just trade in the local places and they trade to other places. Places like the Romans, they want to have some free bread, so they trade to the Chinese.available nearby.
