Question 40 through 43; Recently some anthropologist conducted an interesting case study in ethnology. Now ethnology as u recall is a branch of anthropology that deals with how various cultures developed change. The study was about the development of basket weaving by African American women who live in the Town of Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. The town is known for its high quality sweet grass baskets which are woven bye these women. They've been weaving the baskets for generations, handing down the skis from mother to daughter. Some of the baskets have been place on permanent display at the Philadelphia museum of art. The origin of their basket weaving dates back to the 17th century and even earlier when these women's ancestors came to the United States from the west coast of Africa. Now, it's mainly a hobby. But back in the 17th and 18th century African and American women wove the baskets for use on the rice plantations. There were two types of baskets then: workbaskets and baskets for use in the home. The workbaskets were made out of the more delicate sweet grass. They were used for everything from Fruit baskets to baby cradles. 40 what is the talk mainly about? 41 how did the women mentioned in the talk learn to wave basket? 42 according to the speaker, what type of baskets was make out of bulrush? 43 what is the main reason that the women in South Carolina now weave baskets?
