History

Because, salt was needed to flavor food, preserve meat, used for medical purposes, and to keep the body healthy. But in West Africa, salt was rare. So, West Africans traded their gold for salt. Salt was so valuable, it was worth its weight in gold. 1 pound of salt = 1 pound of gold. How amazing.

Hope it helped

Why did Athena curse Arachne into a spider?
valentinak56 [21]

Answer: Hi!

Arachne was known throughout her village as an extraordinary weaver. She bragged throughout her village of her talent - but one day, she went too far and said she had more talent then Athena! However, Athena was the god of weaving. They commenced to challenge each other to a weaving contest - but even though Athena was the god of weaving, nobody could tell whose was better! They were of equal quality! But Arachne decided that she couldn't deal with life anymore and tried to hang herself. Athena wouldn't have it and cursed her into a spider - kinder than what she could've been, because she could still somewhat use her weaving skills as a spider.

Hope this helps!
