3 0

The trail began at the old Independence Landing north of Independence, Missouri. Here emigrants left steamboats after a five or six day journey from St. Louis. The center of activity in the small town of Independence was the bustling square. Most of the new pioneers camped a mile or two from the square and were busily purchasing supplies needed for their four to five month trek. Those with horses or mules left first so they could feed upon the shorter grasses. The majority with powerful and durable oxen left two weeks later because cattle have a different dentition than horses.

Answer:

He was practicing cultural relativism

Explanation:

Cultural relativism is an anthropological concept that tries to explain the relation of culture and socialization, in other words, it is the act to see different cultures without any pre-concept or ethnocentrism. This term was first studied by the anthropologist Franz Boas and understood as an important factor in human socialization.

When Luther experienced these situations, especially the religious rituals, he was trying to understand how those cultural aspects were important to create an identity for the people of that location. In many aspects, these experiences were important to create his notion about faith and religion. He understood how each culture, and each people on the planet, despite their differences, share the same respect to the other, to their faiths, and for what they care.

What aspects of romanesque architecture caused early scholars to call it roman-like?

Novosadov [1.4K]

Romanesque architecture is obsessed in semi-circular arches, massive walls, barrel wall roofs (barrel vault) and decorative arcades (succession or arches on a walkway). It is markedly different from Gothic architecture, which is characterized by use of pointed arches. If you are thinking about fairy-tale castles and stuff, you are probably looking at some elements of that architecture. Romanesque architecture flourished approximately 6th to 11th centuries, and it is widely adopted by castles, monasteries, and churches. It got its name probably because of the arches, which is a feature typical in Ancient Roman architecture. Actually, the word Romanesque was coined in the 18th century.
