What do you think the difference was between an indentured servant and an unskilled worker?

An unskilled worker is a worker that is not good at what they do, and they have the choice to stop and it wouldn’t result in a jail consequences because they are choosing to do a job in which they aren’t skilled at. Example a electrician takes a job to be a cook. They most likely they wouldn’t be very skilled at being a cook because they are an electrician but they have the choice to become an electrician again. An indentured servant is a person who works for a person for an amount of years to get out of something (usually debt.) They sign a contract to work for them for a certain amount of years to get out of debt. If they don’t work they won’t get out of debt and they sign a contract which forces them to work in order to get out of the situation. They work unpaid but they have to in order to get their debt payed. So they don’t get the money it goes directly into the debt and not the indentured servant. I hope this makes sense

Why might the olmec have carved their leaders' heads in colossal size?

lesya [120]

They wanted to present them as if they were gods. This was quite common in history and is a reason for example why pharaohs got pyramids built in their honor. The giant heads depicted their leaders as gods or someone who is in general larger than life itself. It was a sign of respect and others who would visit would also see this and know who they are dealing with. Such heads can still be found and examined which is important when trying to understand their ancient culture.
