What was the steps for the aztecs human sacrifice​

History
1 answer:
Mice21 [21]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

When the Aztecs sacrificed people to Huitzilopochtli (the god with warlike aspects) the victim would be placed on a sacrificial stone. The priest would then cut through the abdomen with an obsidian or flint blade. The heart would be torn out still beating and held towards the sky in honor to the Sun-God. The body would then be pushed down the pyramid where the Coyolxauhqui stone could be found. The Coyolxauhqui Stone recreates the story of Coyolxauhqui, Huitzilopochtli's sister who was dismembered at the base of a mountain, just as the sacrificial victims were. The body would be carried away and either cremated or given to the warrior responsible for the capture of the victim. He would either cut the body in pieces and send them to important people as an offering, or use the pieces for ritual cannibalism. The warrior would thus ascend one step in the hierarchy of the Aztec social classes, a system that rewarded successful warriors.

The topics of "tree trade" and "trade barriers" can be tricky. Identify the statements that are accurate.
Ludmilka [50]

The correct answers are A and B.

<em>Free trade</em> seeks to eliminate barriers to imports and promote international trade. Yet it can be more than dangerous to the environment. The main concern is the lowering of national environmental standards in order to export more goods. With free trade, large amount of goods are transported every day which contributes to the rise of the carbon footprint of transportation. Increased production on agricultural farms means more pesticide use and more consumption of energy, all harmful to the environment.

<em>Trade barriers </em>can have a negative effect on the developing world ( overproduction and dumping ) but they do help 'infant industries'. Protective tariffs and trade barriers protect brand-new industries from foreign and national competition. This gives the new companies a bit more time to establish their position on the market.
