    THE BIGGEST POPULATION SHIFT OF MODERN TIMES HAS been the colonization of the New World by Europeans, and the resulting conquest, numerical reduction, or complete disappearance of i1OSt groups of Native Americans (American Indians). As I explained in Chapter I, the New World was initially colonized around or before 11,000 BCE by way of Alaska, the Bering Strait, and Siberia. Complex agricultural societies gradually arose in the Americas far to the south of that entry route, developing in complete isolation from the emerging complex societies of the Old World. After that initial colonization from Asia, the sole well-attested further contacts between the New World and Asia involved only hunter-gatherers living on opposite sides of the Bering Strait, plus an inferred transpacific voyage that introduced the sweet potato from South America to Polynesia. As for contacts of New World peoples with Europe, the sole early ones involved the Norse who occupied Greenland in very small numbers between 4D, 986 and about 1 500. But those Norse visits had no discernible impact on Native American societies. Instead, for practical purposes the collision of advanced Old World and New World societies began abruptly in 1492 CE, with Christopher Columbus's "discovery" of Caribbean islands densely populated by Native Americans. The most dramatic moment in subsequent European-Native American relations was the first encounter between the Inca emperor Atahuallpa and the Spanish conquistador Francisco Pizarro at the Peruvian highland town of Cajamarca on November 16, 1532. Atahuallpa was absolute monarch of the largest and most advanced state in the New World, while Pizarro represented the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V (also known as King Charles I of Spain), monarch of the most powerful state in Europe. Pizarro, leading a ragtag group of 168 Spanish soldiers, was in unfamiliar terrain, ignorant of the local…

    Spanakopita. It’s not “spanigobida,” not “spans” or “spinach pie.” Spanakopita. You have to say it like a real Greek- “Spanakopita.” I cringe at any other rendition, any other attempt. Here’s the ultimate Greek dish: Phyllo dough with oil and spinach with feta filling. It brings great nostalgia, great pride in my heritage (not many people I know are Greek). It prompts great curiosity; how could such a simple meal have this profound effect on me?…

    Mount Etna

    Sicily 's greatest natural attraction is also its highest mountain. To the ancient Greeks, Mount Etna was the realm of Vulcan, god of fire, and the home of the one-eyed monster known as the Cyclops. At approximately 3350 meters, it is Europe 's highest active volcano. The height of its summit changes with each eruption, and over the centuries a few lava flows have reached the coast. Over 1200 square meters of Etna 's surface is covered with solidified lava. Etna offers skiing in the Winter months and breathtaking hikes in the woods during the Summer. There are also a number of smaller peaks on the slopes of Etna, and some interesting caverns. Since Etna is a strato volcano, with relatively cool lava temperatures and numerous openings (vents), nobody ever knows precisely where on its vast surface the next eruption will be. Etna 's long recorded history has proven invaluable to the world 's volcanologists. Mount Etna is said to erupt in a Strombolian style in which the mountain erupts like a fountain from a single vent or crater.…

    One of my favorite places in Brazil is Pão de Açúcar, or Sugar loaf Mountain. It is a peak situated in Rio de Janeiro, at the mouth of Guanabara Bay on a peninsula that sticks out into the Atlantic Ocean, Rising 396 meters or 1,299 feet above the harbor. Its name is said to refer to its resemblance to the traditional shape of concentrated refined loaf sugar which is an important part of Brazilian history and culture today. Brazil became the biggest producer of sugar in the mid-17th century but then lost its position for many decades, reconquering it since the decade of 1970, when the governments created a project called ProÁlcool or Programa Nacional do Álcool…
