Atomic Dalton Theory Dalton s Atomic Theory John
Dalton developed the first useful atomic theory of
matter around 1803. In the course of his studies

water exists in air as an independent gas. Solid
bodies cant occupy the same space at the same
time, but water and air could. If the water and
air were made of discrete particles, evaporation
might be viewed as a mixing of water particles
with air particles. He performed a series of
experiments on mix...

Michael Woods brings up an interesting mystery of
the ancient world that puzzles learned people of
modern times. Although Wood strongly suggests that
the Sea Peoples were a result of mass migrations,
recent research has disproved many of the theories
upon which Wood based his opinions. There is
evidence to show that the Sea Peoples were not a
product of mass migrations. The Trojan War, much
