Some archeologists have debated whether the olmec were a "mother culture" of mesoamerican cultures or a "sister culture." which of the following scenarios would support the hypothesis that the olmec were not a "mother culture" but rather a "sister culture"? the olmecs' use of some ritual items were adopted by other mesoamerican cultures. the olmecs invented a popular ball game that later cultures played. the olmecs shared tool-making techniques with a contemporary culture. the olmecs' celebration of some gods was adopted by later cultures.

Can you summarize this? it takes time and caution to perfect anything which must be concealed. it takes time to crush men who are pursuing legitimate trade. but one of mr. rockefeller’s most impressive characteristics is patience. there never was a more patient man, or one who could dare more while he waited. the folly of hurrying, the folly of discouragement, for one who would succeed, went hand in hand. everything must be ready before he acted, but while you wait you must prepare, must think, work. "you must put in, if you would take out." his instinct for the money opportunity in things was amazing, his perception of the value of seizing this or that particular invention, plant, market, was unerring.
