This statement is true.

A bisj pole, also called bis pole, is a carved wooden pole used in the religious rites by inhabitants of the South Pacific Islands.

The poles vary in sizes and their carvings depict human figures standing on top of each other.

According to the religious belief, if a member of the community had been headhunted, his spirit would prevail and linger in the village, causing disharmony and upsetting people. Bisj poles were erected to<em> satisfy these</em> <em>spirits</em> and send them to the afterlife, thus protecting the living members of the community and paying respect to the dead.

Which action was taken by the leaders of the thirteen colonies in 1776?
soldi70 [24.7K]
The first major American opposition to British policy came in 1765 after Parliament passed the Stamp Act, a taxation measure designed to raise revenues for a standing British army in America. Under the banner of “no taxation without representation,” colonists convened the Stamp Act Congress in October 1765 to vocalize their opposition to the tax. With its enactment in November, most colonists called for a boycott of British goods, and some organized attacks on customhouses and homes of tax collectors.
After months of protest in the colonies, Parliament finally voted to repeal the Stamp Act in March 1766. Most colonists continued to quietly accept British rule until Parliament’s enactment of the Tea Act in 1773, a bill designed to save the faltering British East India Company by greatly lowering its tea tax and granting it a monopoly on the American tea trade. The low tax allowed the company to undercut even tea smuggled into America by Dutch traders, and many colonists viewed the act as another example of taxation tyranny. Hope this helps!
