Question

The most likely religious reason for the origin of settlements was a place to celebrate seasonal festivals. educate children. protect the group's assets. bury the dead. house the ruler.

Answer 1

C - protect the groups assets

Step-by-step explanation:

Original settlements would have been concerned with protecting themselves and their food stores from anyone who would have wanted to invade (other settlements, Native Americans, etc). They would have focused on survival instead of celebrating seasonal festivals, educating children, burying the dead and the ruler typically stayed in the originating country.
