How were mayan cities arranged

History
2 answers:
Vikki [24]3 years ago

A Maya city from the Classic Period usually consisted of a series of stepped platforms topped by masonry structures, ranging from pyramids and palaces to individual house mounds. These structures were in turn arranged around broad plazas or courtyards. Maya architecture is characterized by a sophisticated sense of decoration and art, expressed in carvings and wall paintings. At major sites like Tikal, large buildings and complexes might also have been interconnected by stone roads or causeways.<span>Maya cities were rarely laid out in neat grids, and appear to have developed in an unplanned fashion, with temples and palaces torn down and rebuilt over and over through the centuries. Because of this seemingly erratic pattern of settlement, the boundaries of Maya cities are often hard to determine. Some cities were surrounded by a moat, and some had defensive earthworks around them. City walls are rare at Maya sites, with the exception of some recently discovered cities dating from the collapse of Maya civilization, when protective walls were suddenly thrown up around cities under siege from outside enemies. The mayan cities were </span>arranged beautifully in my opinion.

Name three divine actions that identify Jesus Christ as God. Use complete sentences.
Vlada [557]

Answer:

1. Colossians 1:16-17 describes Him as the creator and sustainer of the universe: For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities--all things have been created through Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.  

2. The miracles in the Gospel of John appear for the express purpose of demonstrating that Jesus is the Messiah, thereby attesting to His deity (John 20:30-31).

3. Jesus taught that men are to worship only God (Matthew 4:10), and He accepted their worship of Him (Matthew 28:9).

How did Phyllis Schlafly and her supporters invoke the principle of freedom in the battle over the ERA?
IrinaK [193]
When feminist groups in the 1960s and 1970s pushed for Congress to propose the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), conservatives such as Phyllis Schlafly opposed it as something that would harm women rather than help them, that would infringe on their rights and freedoms rather than grant them greater freedom.   The ERA stated that "equality of rights under the law shall not be abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex."  A key point Schlafly focused on was that this would force women to be subject to military draft and military combat service in the same way as men.  This became the key issue regarding the defeat of the Equal Rights Amendment.  House of Representatives gave its approval to the ERA in 1970; the Senate did so in 1972.   But the amendment failed to achieve ratification by the states, due to the influence of the movement led by Schlafly.

Which of the following does not describe The Articles of Confederation?
ludmilkaskok [199]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

When The Articles of Confederation were created, people were terrified of the central government, so people wanted to make the government very small and give the states more power. Therefore, answers A and C does describe the articles of confederation.

During 1777, the British had taken over the US capital of Philadelphia, so the temporary capital was York, Pennsylvania, the Continental Congress decided to set up their government with the Articles of Confederation as the central document. Maryland finally ratified in 1781, making it the law. Therefore, they took four years to be adopted. Answer D does describe the articles.

Therefore, the correct option is B. The articles created states that were dependent on each other. If the states were given lots of power from the articles they won't be depending on other states.

Have a wonderful day! :D
