Because people can learn from other people, in both in failures and in successes. The founding fathers of the United States took after the Roman republic in modeling after there government. This is why the United States Congress is structured in the same manner as the Roman Congress. Versus the rectangular or roundtable types of congresses that are seen in European countries. 

They also took after the Romans on the idea of a republic being comprised of people elected to represent them. These people are also meant to be changed out on a regular basis. And that the public was in control of who was calling the shots on their behalf.

How is the author’s purpose in “Armchair Archaeology” different from the author’s purpose in "Ancient Egypt"? Support your answe
amid [387]

Answer:

<u>enlightens readers about the role of satellite images in archaeology, the other focuses on the general features of the ancient ruins in Egypt.</u>

Explanation:

Based on a careful reading of both articles, it could be noticed that in “Armchair Archaeology” the author's purpose seems to be about enlightening his readers about the role/benefits of satellite images in archeology. For example, after stating a recent find by Sarah Parcak, the author added, "<em>Perhaps more amazing  than the finds themselves is the way Parcak detected them: on her computer." </em>that statement led to a series of other facts been mentioned about the use of satellite images in archeological finds.

Meanwhile, the second source dwells more on the features of the Egyptian pyramid and its other ancient ruins. For example,  we read, <em>"The “Great Pyramid” presents . . . many other marvels besides its size."</em> a statement that leads to several reports throughout the article about the features of the Egyptian pyramid and its other ancient ruins.
