What reading level is Natural Resources of Boone And Marion Counties, Arkansas .. book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In a description of the City of Ecba- tana, by Polybius, it is stated that the beams, pillars and sup- ports of the roof and portico of the palace were covered with gold and silver plates, and the tiles were of silver. The King of Lydia, Croesus, is said by Herodotus and Diodorus to have presented to the temple of Delphi, 4000 talents of silver and 270 talents of gold, in value, about $15,000,000. Such exam- ples of the vast accumulations are by no means of rare oc- currence in ancient history,... nor are such entirely absent from comparatively modern history. The power of theRoman Empire was shaken to its foundation by Hannibal, through the means of silver dug from Spanish mines, from one of which, the daily output was 4800 ounces of silver daily, This is but a tithe of the metallic wealth wrested from nature in times past ; as a mighty river it flowed until the Roman Empire was swept from its place by barbarian hordes. It would be of interest to know what has become of these treasures, what of those of the Peruvian Incas, and of the Montezumas ?
