How does Black Hawk’s rhetoric in this excerpt advance his viewpoint that in order to save their own culture, Indians must def

eat the white men?We told them to let us alone; but they followed on and beset our paths, and they coiled themselves among us like the snake. They poisoned us by their touch. We were not safe. We lived in danger. We were becoming like them, hypocrites and liars, adulterers, lazy drones, all talkers, and no workers.

Answer:

Black Hawk uses the simile to show that the white man is corrupting the natives and that it will be necessary to exterminate them for this corruption to end.

Explanation:

The text shows that the natives wanted to live in peace, separated from the whites who pursued them, hindered their paths and even corrupted them. In this way the author uses the simile to show how white men make the natives look like they are corrupt, liars, hypocrites and lazy people, making it impossible to get rid of them just by moving away and creating the need to defeat them so that the natives can live in peace.

In what ways were the maya, aztec and inca advanced for their time
erastova [34]
Inca’s developed vast skills of engineering. 

<span>The ancient Mayans can be long remembered for their remarkable advances of the arts, science, and religion </span>

<span>The Mayans recorded their history in hieroglyphics, a writing system that used pictures and certain symbols. Archaeologists today are still trying to decode the many hieroglyphics found on religious temples, stairs, and the walls of homes and palaces. Another educational advance was the development of an advanced mathematics system. This system was not perfected in Europe until centuries later. This system contained the number zero. The Mayans also developed a three hundred and sixty five day calendar that was modeled after the movement of the sun, moon, and stars. This calendar (in the Mayans time) was the most accurate since the Gregorian calendar centuries before. The Mayans were heavily involved with astronomy. Mayan astronomers calculated the movement of the moon and the sun, calculated the age of certain stars, and made many astronomical predictions that would later be proved to be only years (even months!) off.</span>
