VIVAT! Nice post. This post clearly presented the idea that the culture of the
MA was based entirely on agriculture, without exception. Without this
knowledge, a person can not even begin to hope begin to understand the culture
of the MA.  Unfortunately the industrial society of the current MA offers few
anchor points to  even begin to understand waht it means to live in in an
agrarian society. :-( 

Nice job!
