History

Ghella [55]4 years ago

The tomb builder's position in Egypt was very important because tombs were built for the highest persons in the land, the pharaohs, both as a monument to their greatness and to aid them in the afterlife.

The pharaohs' tombs were enclosed in massive structures, the pyramids. The most prominent example is the Great Pyramid of Giza, built for Pharaoh Khufu (2609 BC - 2584 BC). It is the only one of the Seven Wonders of the ancient world that still stands today. It is 480 feet tall, and estimates suggest that about 20,000 workers over a period of about 20 years were needed to build the Great Pyramid. So any persons at the head of a tomb building project, for any of the pyramids, was in charge of a gigantic undertaking of engineering and coordination of efforts.

in Schenck v. United States when did the supreme court say speech could be more dangerous to the country
Len [333]

The correct answer is During a time of war.

The Schenck vs. United States Supreme Court case deals with the issue of freedom of speech during the World War I era. In this case, Schenck was using his freedom of speech to convince people to avoid the military draft that was taking place in the United States. The Supreme Court ruled that this is not protected free speech, as this speech presented a clear and present danger to American society, especially since this was done during World War I.

The growing danger of English settlement to the Wampanoag and other New England
uysha [10]

Answer:

When the colonists demanded that the indigenous weapons be handed over, in addition to judging and hanging three Wampanoags.

Explanation:

The relationship between the Wampanoag tribe (along with other New England tribes) and the English settlers, has been peaceful for many years, and it is possible to research reports of collaboration between these peoples m plantations, harvests and other activities. The peoples had a peace agreement between them, which had established a friendly and safe period, where everyone could live together.

However, the English colonists began to show their desire to dominate the indigenous peoples, breaking this friendship and provoking the great conflicts that followed between these peoples. The first sign that English colonization was dangerous for the natives was when the colonists demanded that the Indians surrender their weapons. This tension increased when the English colonists joked and sentenced three Wampanoag Indians for hanging, for a crime that did not concern them.
