Blog Entry #3 Signifigant Changes

I agree that population growth was the most significant development of the Classical period to some extent. I think that it was more the consequences that were a result of the population growth. For example, there was deforestation in order to provide enough resources for the new population quantity. Also, more big cities were created to support the new population quantity as well. But, an advantage that was made was that with new population increases came the increase of collective learning as well. A few of the reasons behind the population surge were the use of farming and breeding animals to do things humans normally couldn't, or could but then would have time for other labor. As well as the invention of iron, which provided the iron plow, and weapons. And as well as better crops were produced that had more calories in it, and larger quantity of food was being grown. So no, I don't believe that population growth was the biggest change in the classical period. I believe it's because of the reasons behind it, and the consequences of it.
