In both cultures, the basis of their economy was agriculture. But this was very difficult to carry out due to the geographical conditions in which they were. They were located in an area where the climate was very dry, the land was scarce and there was very little water to irrigate those lands. Both Chavin and Nazca solved this by using underground aqueducts to transport water and, therefore, irrigate the crops permanently. Then, the most important reason why they resorted to this mechanism is the lack of water to irrigate the crops.

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

The Great Awakening contributed to the development of an “independent spirit” among American colonists because it reduced the power of hierarchical religious sects. It contributed, instead, to a situation in which people thought more for themselves about issues of religion.

Was Columbus really a conqueror? was he the bad guy? explain your reasoning 5 sentences​
Degger [83]

Answer:

1.Christopher Columbus was a fraud.2. He was indeed a brave and prolific explorer.  3.but he also was a brutal evil man who never even made it to the place that is now the United States.4. We all believe that Columbus is a villain than a hero.

5.First of all, according to Wikipedia, A hero (masculine) or heroine (feminine) is a person or main character of a literary work who, in the face of danger, combats adversity through feats of ingenuity, bravery or strength, often sacrificing their own personal concerns for a greater good. However, based on what we have learned about Christopher Columbus, what he did has nothing to do with the definition of hero. His motivation to take the travel was to arrive in India, a country in east Asia, to obtain gold. From this perspective, his motivation was not noble. In addition, he did not arrive in India.

Secondly, he set a bad example to colonists came later. According to the article “Christopher Columbus: Hero or Murderer?” by Whitney DeWitt, it is said that “Columbus’s arrogance and exploitation regarding slavery began on his second voyage. Ferdinand and Isabella had ordered that the natives be treated kindly. In opposition to this order, Columbus began exporting slaves in great numbers in 1494.” His way to treat the native residents was improper and rude, which is bad model to colonists who came later. A hero is supposed to be a decent man who get rid of bad reputation. Columbus’ behavior did not conform to the standard.

Because of the reasons given above, it will be hard to classify Christopher Columbus as a hero. His motivation to come to American continent was not noble. He set a bad example to colonists who came later. In addition, his arrival caused a catastrophe to local residents. Therefore, he is more like a villain than a hero.
