Question

Why aren't the heads in Mount Rushmore placed in the order of the men's presidencies?

Answer 1

The heads in Mount Rushmore are not placed in the order of the men’s presidencies because each head was placed where the rock could be most easily shaped into that person’s face. So the correct option is “A”. The four president’s faces that are made in Mount Rushmore are that of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and Theodore Roosevelt. The work of sculpture was started in the year 1927 and ended in the year 1941. This art work was led by the sculptor Gutzon Borglum.
