Site of the first permanent English settlement in American in 1607

Answer:

The first goal of many of the first settlers to Jamestown was to find gold, as the Spaniards did in their colonies.

Explanation:

Jamestown was founded on May 14, 1607 by the Virginia Company on behalf of King James I, after whom the place is also named. It was the first successful permanent English settlement in America, and was established to serve as a base for English gold seekers but, after a number of difficult years due to hunger, diseases and a conflictful relationship with the Indians, the colony improved from 1612 onwards. That year, colonists started to plant tobacco instead of looking for precious metals, and the colony became an agricultural center in North America.

Answer: Incense Burner of Arabia

Explanation:

It mentions burning incense and different aromatics. The only option that would make slight sense would be the incense burner. Giraffes definitely don't burn incense, neither do porcelain (a type of material), astrolabes (a form of navigating the seas), and the wooden ceiling of the Ka'aba.
