The introduction of pottery in a culture seems to coincide with the adoption of a sedentary way of life.…

A few ideas was that a woman should have an understanding that the home is where she belongs and the economic world is for the man, the home is the only proper sphere for the female, and have knowledge about the functions as a mother and a wife.

Over several centuries ago, from the 1300s-1600s, England was experiencing its own type of witchcraft craze as it went through the process of executing thousands of people for their supposed misdeeds. After putting into place, appealing, reformatting and reenacting various acts all of which, in their own manner, banned supernatural acts and resulted in the death of many, England had finally seemed to move past this elongated obsession, just in time to pass it onto their fellow Englishmen in the New World.
