    Oldest known lock was found in the Khorsabad palace ruins near Nineveh. The lock was estimated to be 4,000 years old. It was a forerunner to a pin tumbler type of lock, and a common Egyptian lock for the time. This lock worked using a large wooden bolt to secure a door, which had a slot with several holes in its upper surface. The holes were filled with wooden pegs that prevented the bolt from being opened.

  7. I doubt you could find many fifth graders who would be able to answer this question a couple weeks after they learned it. I for one would hope that the teachers are giving them more valuable information than who created the first lock =] But for the sake of fun I'll guess the Romans.

  8. not sure and i dont think a fifth grader would know either. i dont even know why they would teach kids that. it will never be a useful thing in the real world. For the record, i think that show is set up as most of those questions are way beyond a fifth grade level. Such as questions about politics and government because when a was in 11th grade ( graduated in 05) i was just starting to learn that stuff. highly doubt those kids are that smart unless they were taught that stuff in the womb. I think schools need to start teaching things that are more useful in todays world such as math,politics,economics,parenting and other such useful things. i for one havent had to use a single darn thing that i learned about dead men from hundreds of years ago. the only thing proven useful that i took was culinary arts, home ec., geography, math, and english. some science also

  9. chinese duh...

    or maybe greek...

  10. i guess ........it must be chinese.
