When agriculture gradually began to develop, so did the appearance of basic pottery. The Maya developed this early pottery in simple design using a type of ceramics called "swasey."

Head to head hits are still a prevalent issue in the Nfl. Should head to head hits lead to an ejection from the game? If a player in college football commits an intentional helmet to helmet hit, the penalty is an ejection. If college football can input this penalty, couldn’t the NFL? We see that former football players who suffered many concussions over their playing careers, have long lasting effects.

establishment activities are completed. It is the fundamental basis for the structure that establishes a safe and strong deck to support all other building works on top of it. The structural and geotechnical engineers must make analysis on the ground soils, settlement and building load before they decide whichever footing is required.

This made their settlement neither profitable nor socially stable, since individual colonists felt little attachment to their community but instead sought individual wealth. A lack of social bonds in the community was further exacerbated by the fact that all the initial colonists, and most of the later arrivals, were male.
