Answer to Question 1

T

Answer to Question 2

The first step was cutting the ripe grain with a sickle, scythe, or grain cradle. The grain was manually bundled, and the bundles or sheaves were piled into shocks. The bundles were loaded into a wagon for transport to the barn or threshing area. Threshing was done with a leather/wooden flail or by treading the grain from grain heads by horses or oxen. Separation of the grain from the straw was done by winnowing (the process of separating the grain and straw fractions by throwing the combined mixture into the air).

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
