The correct answer is - protection of the cargo.

The wicker fence on the ships of the Phoenicians had the purpose to protect the cargo. Since the sea waters are not always calm, and very often, out of nowhere, a storm can emerge and contribute to bigger waves, as well as rocking of the ship itself, the Phoenicians invented a simple trick, and that was the wicker fence. With it on place, the cargo was safe on the boat, and it was not able to slip away and be lost in the sea.

Comparing and contrasting the different Native American tribes

IgorC [24]

Answer:

The Iroquois and Algonquin lived in the Northeast US and southeast Canada. The Anasazi lived in the Southwest US. The Iroquois and Anasazi lived a more sedentary lifestyle, while the Algonquin lived a more nomadic lifestyle. The Algonquin hunted and fished for food, while the Iroquois and Anasazi hunted, but also grew crops. Algonquin lived in wigwams (dome-shaped homes), Iroquois lived in long houses, and the Anasazi lived in Adobe style homes called pueblos. They all used what was available in nature for the creation of their homes. Algonquin society was patriarchal, Iroquois was matriarchal, and Anasazi was more matriarchal. The Algonquin and Iroquois were actually confederacies. They were actually different tribes of native americans that banded together in times of need.

No one is sure how the Anaszi declined. Some believe that they were attacked by a more hostile group or groups of indians. Others believe that they exhausted the few natural resources that existed within their desert environment. The Algonquin and Iroquois societies still exist and thrive today. They are prominent in their ancestral lands and have played key roles within both US and Canadian governments to protect their land and interests.

Puritan leaders vs. Roger Williams cause and effect

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

The cause of the conflict between the Puritan leaders and Roger Williams was that he was approving of freedom of religion for the Natives instead of trying to convert them and treating them very poorly. He wanted them to live better lives.

What happened was that he got kicked out of the colony but then he started another, Rhode Island, that had freedom of religion.

Why do you think the framers made the constitution difficult to amend

Bond [772]

The Framers wanted it to be relatively easy to consider changes to the Constitution. Yet they wanted proposed changes to be carefully considered.They also wanted to be sure that Amendments had the full support of the nation.Therefore, it is more difficult to ratify an Amendment and make it into law than it is to propose, or suggest, it.
