Note:
Designed to make history more comprehensible and to illustrate the flow of time and events. Explanatory text at bottom of chart. Depicted as a tree with newer times higher in the tree. Obscure parts of history hidden by leaves. Two vignettes: apparently Adam in the Garden of Eden and a Native American hunting party. The ends of particular lines of civilization shown by the limb being "amputated" at the appropriate date. Lacks any reference to East Asian or New World (except United States) governments.
