IrinaVladis [17]3 years ago
5 0

Most gold ore was mined by large companies rather than prospectors since their vast economical and financial resources permitted them to acquire expensive machinery, such as heavy trucks, bulldozers, rotary mechanical scrreening machines ( used for separating ore from other materials) , etc.; none of which was at the hand of prospectors.

What are the social aspects of medieval Japanese society?
Wittaler [7]
<span>Good Morning!
 
 "Feudal" or "medieval" Japan had a social structure that merged with social and economic hierarchies. The Emperor was the top of social logic, having absolute power over the kingdom. Shogun was the military and political leader. The Daimyos, military nobles, represented the Shoguns, but they were subjugated by those. Beneath them were the well-known Samurai, loyal to the shoguns and daimyos. They were professional warriors and had social prestige, even though they had no voice in political decision making. Below them were the Ronin, a kind of socially unimportant samurai, serving as bodyguards or mercenaries. Peasants, artisans, and merchants made up the rest of the classes, most of the Japanese population at the time, generally poor and without any political power, were the basis of society, which had a mobility that was virtually impossible to achieve.
