1 answer:
mr Goodwill [35]2 years ago
8 0

Based on historical evidence, the very earliest Dahomey Amazons made their living through "mistresses to the king."

  • This is evident in the fact they were originally called "ahosi" in the native language which means the King's wives.

  • History has it that King Ghezo had many wives that runs into hundreds, and that is where he started recruiting them around the 19th century.

  • Dahomey Amazons are female soldiers of Fon origin who fought in defense of Dahomey.

Hence, in this case, the correct answer is option B. "mistresses to the king."

Law of brotherhood

The death penalty was so common, that in the First Court, the Fountain of Execution was erected, where the executioner and his assistant washed their bloody hands after cutting their heads at the victims.

Explanation:

  • Since the mid-15th century, the "law of brotherhood" written by Muhammed II was in force in the Ottoman Empire. It was a "rulebook" outlining the terms of power. A brother who would gain the throne killed all other brothers and sisters, which was considered not only permissible but desirable, because it partly prevented the risk of rebellion and civil war.
  • Although not always enforced, Muhammed's law led to the deaths of more than 80 Ottomans of "blue blood" over a 150-year period.
  • The fountain was the most frightening symbol of the power the sultan had over his subjects.
