History

DENIUS [597]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The correct answer is:

- both civilizations were located in Mexico

- both civilizations used hieroglyphics

- both civilizations built pyramids

Explanation:

Olmecs were located along the Gulf of Mexico, that is, in today's modern states of Veracruz and Tabasco, while Mayans were located in the parts of southern Mexico.  

Mayan hieroglyphics contained approximately 800 characters, based on pictorial complexity and phonetic signs. The Olmecs also used hieroglyphics that were based on syllabic signs, similar to some West African writings.

Mayans used pyramids as temples and royal tombs. Their pyramids were built from carved stone with a top platform that usually contained a statue of some Mayan deity. Olmecs built pyramids for the same reason; their pyramids were built of earth and clay, located in their historical center, La Venta.

Another power to add to the list would be:  Deciding the legality of executive orders.

An example would be Executive Order 13769, which was titled, "Protecting the Nation from Foreign Terrorist Entry into the United States."  President Donald Trump signed this order on January 27, 2017, in the first weeks of his presidency.  Commonly called the "travel ban," this order suspended travel to the United States from a number of countries with a majority Muslim population.  The order immediately was challenged in the courts as unconstitutional.  The Trump administration was compelled to replace Executive Order 13769 with a  revised version that it hoped would stand up to court challenges, Executive Order 13780, signed in March, 2017.
