- Homo sapiens - Members of the species to which all modern human beings belong. Homo sapiens is one of several species grouped into the genus Homo, but it is the only one that is not extinct. The name "Homo sapiens" was applied in 1758 by Carolus Linnaeus, who distinguished humans from their close cousins, the apes. The large fossil record now contains numerous extinct species that are much more closely related to humans than to today's apes and that were presumably more similar to us behaviorally as well.
- ink - A fluid medium used for drawings or tracings. An opaque, usually black, pigment is mixed with a vehicle such as water to produce a fluid which can be applied with a pen or brush. Through the end of the 19th century, ink was supplied dried in stick or block form which was ground and mixed with water as needed. At the beginning of this century prepared ink became popular.
- men - Refers to male human beings from young adulthood through old age.
- Middle Eastern - Styles and cultures existing in the extensive area that includes the nations of southwest Asia and northeastern Africa. The term was formerly used to also include Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, and Burma.
- pencils - Implements comprising rods of a marking substance, enclosed in wood, plastic, or metal, and used for writing or drawing. Common examples of materials used in pencils are graphite, lead, and pigmented wax.
- pens - Hand-held instruments for writing or drawing with a colored fluid such as ink. A pen generally comprises a handle or holder and a pointed tip for distributing the fluid on the drawing surface. The term may also refer to an instrument for machine-controlled writing or drawing with ink.
- pins - Small fasteners with a pointed or tapered end made of various materials used to pin something down or fasten something together. For jewelry having pins as methods of attachment, use "pins (jewelry)."
