History

lakkis [162]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The Pigtail Ordinance was an 1873 law intended to force prisoners in San Francisco, California to have their hair cut within an inch of the scalp. While the law did not discriminate between races, it affected Han Chinese prisoners in particular, as it meant they would have their queue, a waist-long, braided pigtail, cut off. The proposal passed by a narrow margin through the Board of Supervisors in 1873 but was not enacted until 1876.

How do skill ,type of job and demand for products affect wages?
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer

The skill set of a person may be valuable or non-valuable based on what the demand for a certain product is. The more value for a skill the higher of a wage because the employer would want to keep the person with the skill. Like if having a cell phone is in high demand, people who have a skill in engineering will be paid more because they need someone who can program the phone to be the best.

Many of the cave paintings at Lascaux show the animals with heads in profile, but with horns facing forward. This is an example
Elanso [62]

Answer:

The convention of representation depicted in the Lascaux cave paintings where the heads of the animals are in profile but their horns are facing forward is called the twisted perspective.

Explanation:

The Lascaux cave paintings (c. 17,000 BCE) are remarkable because the animals are depicted with a lot of vitality and detail for the time period. The Timeline of Art History on the MET's website describes cave paintings and engraving appearing on the ceilings or walls of caves as “parietal” art. It is likely the caves were more for ceremonial purposes than for providing a group or community shelter. At Lascaux, the artists used outlines for precision and detailed them with soft colorings that they likely blew onto the depictions using a straw-like tool. The animals at Lascaux are typically painted with a slight twisted perspective. This gives the drawing more visual power and sense of the animal in movement because their horns or antlers are painted from the front, but their heads are in profile. Scholars who have analyzed the paintings have found that this twisted perspective is also used in artwork originating from Mesopotamia and Egypt.
