I can name one such civilization : the Olmecs, they were the first known Mesoamerican civilization and they influenced the later civilizations in many ways.

First, Olmec Art is still visible in the art of Mayas and Aztecs: they influenced their art. For example, the Olmecs used Jade, just like the later civilisations.

then, Epi-Olmec script bears some resemblance to the Maya script, so Mayas likely adopted and developed the Olmec script.

What are the pros and cons of circle sentencing in serious cases of domestic violence?

Gnoma [55]

Circle sentencing refers to the sentence/punishment that require the offender to follow a certain type of rehabilitation program so they can be educated and not repeat the same type behavior again.

Pros of circle sentencing

- the rate of re-occurrence for the same crime would be dramatically reduced.

- Since the rehabilitation program would include the combination of soft-skill and hard- skill, the offender might come out becoming a more functional member of society.

Cons of circle sentencing

- This type of programs usually cost a lot of money for the federal government. So they would most likely increase the tax rate in order to achieve this.
