Answer:

B. They made sure that kings followed the law.

Explanation:

The word "Ephor" was a title given to the highest magistrate of ancient Sparta because they were an overseer of the spartan assembly. The ephors were elected on an annual basis and were typically made to swore an oath on behalf of the spartan city. Unlike the ephors, the king of Sparta is only made to swear an oath just for themselves.

Basically, the ephors were five in numbers and with the king of Sparta they all formed the executive arm of government in ancient Sparta.

Furthermore, the ephors were saddled with the responsibility of overseeing the decisions made by the spartan assembly (legislature) and ensures they are all made in accordance with the spartan constitution (Laws of Sparta). After the laws are enacted, the ephors ensures that the king acts in accordance with these laws.

This ultimately implies that, the ephors performed check and balances in ancient Sparta.

Hence, the most important role of ephors in ancient Sparta was that they made sure that kings followed the law.

Segun la fuente f "la cuestion sanitaria y los ilustrados en el siglo xvlll":
AfilCa [17]

La palabra "cementerio", que se deriva del griego antiguo, significa "lugar para dormir". Así que esas inscripciones en las lápidas de los cementerios que dicen "Descanso eterno" o "Descansa en paz" tienen mucho sentido.

En ellos, los cuerpos reposan en hileras bajo monumentos de piedra y mármol como si estuvieran acostados en dormitorios secretos.

Además, excepto para aquellas personas sensibles a las películas de terror, los cementerios – desde la isla veneciana de San Michele hasta la colección de tumbas de mafiosos italianos que da hacia Manhattan en el cementerio Calvary, de Queens- son realmente lugares de descanso rodeados de una sensación de ensueño y de escape al otro mundo frente las ruidosas ciudades a las que sirven.

Obra del trabajo de habilidosos diseñadores, arquitectos, escultores y jardineros, los cementerios citadinos pueden resultar descorazonadoramente hermosos.

Pero, aunque generalmente son refugios de vida silvestre, objeto de cautivadores ensayos en la historia del gusto y el diseño y una mirada fascinante sobre las convenciones sociales y las creencias religiosas, su origen fue espeluznante
