What did married woman do in the 776bc olympics

History
1 answer:
marusya05 [52]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Inferior, basically.

Explanation:

Married women were not allowed to participate in, or to watch, the ancient Olympic Games. However, unmarried women could attend the competition, and the priestess of Demeter, goddess of fertility, was given a privileged position next to the Stadium altar

<u>Only men, boys and unmarried girls</u> were allowed to attend the Olympic Games. Married women were barred.

If they were caught sneaking in, they could be thrown off the side of a mountain as punishment!

However, women could still own horses in the chariot races at the Olympics and unmarried women had their own festival at Olympia every four years.

This was called the Heraia and was held in honour of Hera, Zeus's wife. Winners were awarded crowns of sacred olive branches, the same as men. But in ancient Greece, only Spartan women were really interested in sport.

Which of the following most logically completes the argument?
Alona [7]

Answer:

<u>B) many agencies created under the New Deal were designed to provide financial relief, not to maintain economic stability.</u>

Explanation:

This option sounds more logical because it fits into the view of most economists, which is to achieve economic stability. However, those agencies weren't bringing economic stability but just giving out financial relief which does not guarantee economic stability.

Just as the old saying goes, <em>"prevention is better than a cure" </em>Hence, many agencies created under the New Deal were designed to provide financial relief (''a cure") but were not bringing about/maintaining economic stability ("a prevention").

Explain ONE way in which the legacy of imperialism affected the economic development of new states in the second half of the twe
Natali5045456 [20]

´The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can say the following.

One way in which the legacy of imperialism affected the economic development of new states in the second half of the twentieth century in the countries of Africa.

After European nations allow independence to most of the African nations, these African countries have been immersed in poverty, hunger, social problems, and diseases. This can be an example of the legacy they left after years of imperialism in Africa.

Let's remember that at the end of the 1800s and the beginning of the 1900s, European superpowers agreed to split the African territory in what was known as the "Scramble for Africa." European nations such as France, Portugal, Great Britain. Germany or Belgium, split the African territories to colonize them and exploit the many raw materials and natural resources.

When the Europeans left those territories, the African people did not what to do after so many years of dependence.

Right now, all their struggles are consequences of that European imperialism.
