Charcoal from a hearth site in Colorado, 2,000 miles south of Alaska, is known to be 11,200 years old. Researchers reasoned that

, since glaciers prevented human migration south from the Alaska-Siberia land bridge between 18,000 and 11,000 years ago, humans must have come to the Americas more than 18,000 years ago.
Which of the following pieces of new evidence would cast doubt on the conclusion drawn above?

(A) Using new radiocarbon dating techniques, it was determined that the charcoal from the Colorado site was at least 11,400 years old.

(B) Another campsite was found in New Mexico with remains dated at 16,000 years old.

(C) A computer simulation of glacial activity showed that it would already have been impossible for humans to travel south overland from Alaska 18,500 years ago.

(D) Using new radiocarbon dating techniques, it was proved that an ice-free corridor allowed passage south from the Alaska-Siberia land bridge at least 11,400 years ago.

(E) Studies of various other hunting-gathering populations showed convincingly that, once the glaciers allowed passage, humans could have migrated from Alaska to Colorado in about 20 years.

Answer:

(B) Another campsite was found in New Mexico with remains dated at 16,000 years old.

Explanation:

The hypothesis is telling us that humans could not have crossed to Alaska from Siberia in the years between 11,000 - 18,000, however, if two archeological sites are found and dated 11,200 years old and 16,000 years old, the new evidence contradicts the hypothesis and the hypothesis should be discarded.

Who was the hated queen of france who ran up the national debt?
irinina [24]
France was declared bankrupt in 1788.
Louis XIV had made huge state debts by building the Versailles palace and declaring wars (especially with Austria and England) which cost too much money. When Louis XV entered the throne, there was a state debt of 400 million livres, and he couldn't repay the debts. He tried to though, by making the French pay taxes (everybody had too, except the clergy and nobility).
It wasn't enough, and when Louis XVI succeeded him all he could do is raise the taxes and hope for the best. It didn't work out, and France went bankrupt.
* France had spent allot of funds helping the American Revolution.
<span>4000 million lives in debt.<span>France had spent a lot of money fighting costly wars, but had nothing to show for it. Many people accused the royals, especially Queen Marie- Antoinette of spending too much money on luxuries.</span></span>

For your assessment, you will write three journal entries from the point of view of a European who has reached the Americas. Wha
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

Your journal of a trip to America may look like this.

Explanation:

From the moment I was attracted to the sea. I always wondered what those endless blue distances bring, what is it in the end, and what does the end look like? They told us that in the end, my mother, my father, is a friar from my region. And so the years went by, my passion for the ocean did not subside, I grew up and dedicated my life to the sea. I became a sailor. I've spent years on deck, but I've always been interested in one, what does the end look like? And I decided to see, to explore. I wrote to my king, teasing permission, gold coins and people to explore. The desire for the unknown was stronger than I was, and one day I received approval from the king, and all the resources needed to travel.

We traveled for a long time, the journey was difficult, but we arrived. We came to a new world, we found people who had their arrangement, hierarchy. However, they were very primitive. Their land was rich, however, they did not care about it. They lived much more slowly than us Europeans. The language was unfamiliar to us, my crew and I tried to communicate with them in every possible way. Many were surprised to see our horses, it turned out that this beautiful animal was a stranger to them. They treated us to food and it was a lot delicious, I had never tasted anything like this before, potatoes have become my favorite food over time.

My big wish came true, I explored the ocean's royal edges. I returned to Europe, informing my King about everything I saw. And I saw primitive tribes, I saw riches we could use, I saw people as a workforce. I told all this to the king. The news spread rapidly across the continent. However, we arrived first, and we grabbed the most wealth, we picked up the most slaves and gained a great reputation in our countries. The natives were not pleased about it. Eventually, other European countries began to do the same.
