- That would depend on what capacity they are being so in.
Writers? Would depend on how popular their book is, which might depend on what publisher printed it …
Professors or other at a university? Would depend on what university and what position.

- Whether you mean Anglo-Saxon or English since Chaucer, the answer would be some generation previous to either St. Cuthbert (first Anglo-Saxon poet, wrote Verse Genesis) or Chaucer, and the speech becoming a language it had not been previously would be too gradual to notice in the speech itself.
It’s just that after both came someone actually trying to write it.

- It’s not a fairy tale, but history, about feral children.
If only one had been raised by a wolf, he would probably not have become functional socially, when coming to human society, that they had some social functionality was because they were two human children.
Even so it destroyed sufficiently of it to make them end up provoking and killing each other. (Or, one provoked and the other killed him).
In real life, as opposed to Kipling’s Djungle Book, she wolves don’t have names.

- Answered just now
- Decades and centuries are counted in two different ways.
The one closest to how they do it in Swedish is this:
1900’s, 2000’s for previous and this Century;
2000’s and 2010’s for previous and this Decade.
It’s weakness is, a phrase like 2000’s can refer to both a century and its first decade.
They count like this : 1900 - 1999, 2000 - 2099 for centuries, 2000 - 2009, 2010 - 2019.
The other version is like this:
20th C, 21st C for previous and this Century
1st decade of 21st C, 2nd decade of 21st C for previous and this Decade
They count like this : 1901 - 2000, 2001 - 2100 for centuries, 2001 - 2010, 2011 - 2020 for decades.
Or did you mean Rosary decades?

- To general question : it was made from thorns.
To question as asked : it is primarily a historic relic, over and above what it may represent to someone subjectively.
As it is a relic of the passion of Christ, it represents Christ and His sufferings for our salvation.
- You may guess
- that I don't approve of the question being so merged, that is why I answered the first one very briefly.

- It seems the site giving its name to Adena culture was used for graves, burials:
Adena Mound - Wikipedia
On the other hand, this is not necessarily the case with all Hopewell sites:
Portsmouth Earthworks - Wikipedia
So, some guess many had other ceremonial uses than just burial.
Here are the wikis on the two cultures, anyway:

- The so called Mississippian “period” is known for certain types of fossils.
In North America, where the interval consists primarily of marine limestones, it is treated as a geologic period between the Devonian and the Pennsylvanian.
Mississippian (geology) - Wikipedia
I consider the marine limestone as from the Flood.
I also consider this is just one of the deposits of the Flood.
And since the question was posed by a probable Muslim, I consider the one surviving with his family is better represented by Noah in Genesis than by Nooh in the Quran.

- There are four Greek words, I am not aware one of them was missing.
It is possible erân is always omitted, I found it neither in St. Paul’s description of shameful desires, nor in the book of Samuel about King David’s adultery.
The other Greek words are stergein, philein, agapân.
Affection, friendship, sacrificial or unselfish love.

- While it was administrationally split up, I don’t agree this is necessarily ineffective, since it involves converting barbarians to Romans as well as to Christians.
