Answer: b)Matrilineal

Explanation:

Before the Europeans came and had the Native Americans adopt their principles of Patrilineal descent, Native Americans were predominantly Matrilineal in ancestry.

This means that the Natives claimed descent from their mother's clan and women were important enough to be involved in making decisions that concerned the tribe. Some tribes even conferred on women elders, the right to depose a leader who they felt was inefficient.

sineoko [7]

Answer:

The Magna Carta (“Great Charter”) is a document guaranteeing English political liberties that was drafted at Runnymede, a meadow by the River Thames, and signed by King John on June 15, 1215, under pressure from his rebellious barons. The Magna Carta was a document signed by King John in 1215. This document made kings subject to law, and stated that people could not be deprived of their lives, liberty or property, unless judged by others (law). This document influenced the US Constitution by having an effect on the 10 Amendments.
