Why is it difficult for modern experts to translate some parts of the Mayan language? The language is no longer spoken and is no

t used for writing. The Maya often destroyed cities when they were battling for new territory. The Spanish destroyed many of the artifacts with the keys to the Mayan language. The reliefs the Maya used to document their language have been damaged by wind and rain.

Answer:

Explanation:

The Maya considered writing to be a sacred gift from the gods. Most ancient Maya could not read, because the knowledge of reading and writing was jealously guarded by a small elite class, who believed that they alone could interact directly with the gods and mediate between the gods and the common people.

Which of the following farming practices contributed to the economic downturn? Select the two correct
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

  • Many Farmers sold their Land and Farming equipment ( B )
  • Many Farmers borrowed money against the profits of future crops ( D )

Explanation:

These farming practices were very bad practices that lead to economic downturns because it resulted mostly to drastic reduction of agricultural produce and availability of food in the open market which might lead to importation of food that would have been produced locally and add to the country's GDP.

Farmers selling off their Land and Farming equipment is not a good farming practice because it means that the farmer is no longer into farming leading to decrease in potential agricultural produce in the market.

Farmers borrowing money against the profits of his future crops is a very bad farming practice because the profits were supposed to be used to invest into the farm and not to service loans.

What role did the African Tribes and the Middle Passage play in helping to grow
Dovator [93]

Answer:

African tribes involved in the Atlantic slave trade.

Explanation:

The slavery system had existed before the arrival of European in Africa. According to some historians, slavery practised in different tribes in the west and central region of Africa. The existence of various ethnic group led to conflicts between themselves that produced captives who could become part of a local slave trade system. The pattern of the trade changes with the shipping of slaves in America. Europeans took advantage of the remaining slave system in Africa to obtain the labour for a plantation economy in the New World.

The Middle Passage was a stage of the Triangular Trade that connected three continents. Europe took manufactured goods and material to Africa in exchange for African slaves from local African leaders. The enslaved African came in America as labours to work in fields in the Southern colonies. Slaves sold to their buyer in return for raw materials for industries in England like cotton, indigo, etc.
