Riddle~~

My professor gave this riddle to the class.

Could you explain your answers as well??

Thank you



I’m 93 years old, but people say I’m still indefinable;
I have a rich history with five children who live apart and sometimes disdain me;
Always cultured, recently refined, I am backwards and forward thinking at the same time.
I’m all about citizenship and virtue but there’s no value in my name.
It’s elementary, my friend; I am called _____________________.

**You have 3 guesses to fill in the blank at the end and explain each line of the riddle. The only hint I’ll give you is George W. Maxim.**

He does not matter which resource I used to solve this riddle.

If not, give me more of your idea,

Thank you

Is you class on the subject of Social studies?
The 1916 report from the Committee of Social Studies is cited as the originator of the concept of social studies. (93)

The 5 children might be the 5 related subjects branching off from the original concept. It has a deep history.

The topic is always being refined by academics - it is about history and the future.
