History

Nastasia [14]3 years ago

Medusa, one of the three Gorgons, daughter of Phorcys and Ceto. She was the only one of the Gorgons who was subject to mortality. She is celebrated for her personal charms and the beauty of her locks. Neptune became enamoured of her, and obtained her favours in the temple of Minerva. This violation of the sanctity of the temple provoked Minerva, and she changed the beautiful locks of Medusa, which had inspired Neptune’s love to serpents. According to Apollodorus, Medusa and her sisters came into the world with snakes on their heads, instead of hair, with yellow wings and brazen hands. Their bodies were also covered with impenetrable scales, and their very looks had the power of killing or turning to stones. Perseus rendered his name immortal by his conquest of Medusa. He cut off her head, and the blood that dropped from the wound produced the innumerable serpents that infest Africa. The conqueror placed Medusa's head on the shield of Minerva, which he had used in his expedition. The head still retained the same petrifying power as before, as it was fatally known in the court of Cepheus. Some suppose that the Gorgons were a nation of women, whom Perseus conquered.

Which of the following was something that the anti-federalist wanted
andrezito [222]

Anti-federalists intended to have bill of rights included in the constitution.

Explanation:

Federalists desired to have a strong federal government while anti federalists intended that the states be conferred with unlimited powers. Anti-federalists had their own apprehensions and feared that constitution may have any despotic element as an impact of British colonial imperialism that existed prior to declaration of Independence.

So anti federalists stated that they need to incorporate bill of rights in the constitution. Initially federalists protested saying that it is impossible to state every right and some unstated right may be abused and broken.
