Answer:

While these mounds take many forms and served different purposes, with each in a sense telling its own story, all were built entirely by hand, usually by piling up earth one basket-full at a time. Some served as burial mounds for the honored dead, while other flat-topped mounds were parts of large cities or towns and held temples or ceremonial buildings, and still others were built in the shape of giant animals.

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

This is an example of masked-man fallacy.

Explanation:

The masked-man is a fallacy in which two people or objects are mistakenly considered to be either identical or completely different. The most common example used to explain it is the following:

I know who Joshua is.

I don't know who the masked man is.

Therefore, Joshua is not the masked man.

In the example above, Joshua and the masked man are considered different, unrelated. <u>In the situation we are analyzing here, the opposite happens. To reach the conclusion that Tamiko stole Maya's shoes, we are making the huge mistake of not considering any other possibility. Tamiko could very well have an identical-looking pair of shoes; Maya could have lent Tamiko her shoes and forgotten about it, and so on. Therefore, assuming that the shoes are the same, that they belong to Maya and have been stolen, is a result of wrong reasoning and an example of masked-man fallacy.</u>
