And these toys are changing the way historians view medieval (中世纪的) kids lives.Before the discoveries, many historians thought that “there wasnt really such a thing as childhood in the Middle Ages”, said Hazel Forysth of the

46、 Museum of London. The Middle Ages, or medieval times, lasted in Europe from about the year 500 AD to 1500 AD.

55、 of ethology at Kyoto Universitys Primate Research Institute The research team analyzed voice tones of two groups of the same species of primates(灵长类动物)， the Japanese Yakushima macaque also known as Macaca fascia yakui，between 1990 and 2010. One group was formed by 23 monkeys living on the southern

56、Japanese island of Yakushima，and the other group comprised 30 descendants from the same tribe moved from the island to Mount Ohira，central Japan，in 1986.
