Sumerian is the language of ancient Sumer and a language isolate that was spoken in Mesopotamia, during the 3rd millennium BC.

The Sumerians were one of the earliest urban societies to emerge in the world, in Southern Mesopotamia more than 5000 years ago. They developed a writing system whose wedge-shaped strokes would influence the style of scripts in the same geographical area for the next 3000 years

Cuneiform is a system of writing first developed by the ancient Sumerians of Mesopotamia c. 3500-3000 BCE. It is considered the most significant among the many cultural contributions of the Sumerians and the greatest among those of the Sumerian city of Uruk which advanced the writing of cuneiform c. 3200 BCE.  

The name comes from the Latin word cuneus for 'wedge' owing to the wedge-shaped style of writing. In cuneiform, a carefully cut writing implement known as a stylus is pressed into soft clay to produce wedge-like impressions that represent word-signs (pictographs) and, later, phonograms or `word-concepts' (closer to a modern-day understanding of a `word'). All of the great Mesopotamian civilizations used cuneiform until it was abandoned in favour of the alphabetic script at some point after 100 BCE, including:

The only one to be close to a stylus is a c) reed pencil, since the rest was still not invented 5000 years ago.

In a mixed market economy, a fire breaks out in a sneaker factory. The repair work most likely will be paid by the government gr
aev [14]

The correct answer is: "the private citizen who owns the factory".

It would be more accurate to say the private citizens who own the factory, as it is likely that the capital of the corporation is divided in shares, whose owners are in turn, also owners of the corporation in the proportion evidenced by the number of shares they hold.

The losses generated by the fire will be assumed by the capital available in the firm, and due to the increase suffered in the costs, owners will suffer a decrease in their dividends which are the return they receive for their invesment. In case that the available capital is not enough, investors can decide either to invest more money or to let the corporation go bankrupt. It is possible that the local community provides some aid in terms of funding in a mixed economy, to prevent job losses for example, but it is not mandatory that they do so.

In order to afford the large and immediate payments required in case of an unpredictable disaster or accident without risking the solvency of the whole business, firms sign insurance contracts and make periodic payments so that in case of an accident the insurance company would face all costs.

r-ruslan [8.4K]

La respuesta correcta para esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.

A pesar de que no anexas opciones o incisos para responder, podemos comentar lo siguiente.

En las misiones franciscanas de la Sierra Gorda hay unas pinturas que representan la vida de los pueblos indígenas. ¿Cuáles son los dibujos que tienen estas pinturas?

Los dibujos que representan la vida los indígenas mesoamericanos de la época de la colonización están localizados en las diferentes misiones o iglesias que construyeron los frailes franciscanos durante su misión evangelizadora por los territorios de la Sierra Gorda de Querétaro, en México.

Particularmente, estamos hablando de las misiones construidas por Junípero Serra a partir de 1751, hasta concluir la última en 1766.

Ante la resistencia de los indígenas por aceptar las enseñanzas de la religión Católica, Serra tuvo la gran idea de combinar elementos indígenas en la facha de las iglesias y en las pinturas del interior, con objeto de llamar la atención de los indígenas y que pusieran menor resistencia a la evangelización. Es por eso que existen esa combinación de elementos como el maíz, las flores y plantas de la región en esas pinturas y dibujos.

Las misiones construidas bajo el mando de Junípero Serra son Landa, Tancoyol, Jalpan, Concá, y Tilaco.
