The Lucayans, an indigenous people of the Bahamas, flattened their foreheads as a form of body modification that was culturally significant. This practice was believed to enhance beauty and social status, reflecting their cultural values and aesthetics. The process involved binding the head of infants to achieve the desired shape, which was often associated with nobility and higher social standing within their society.

What notes do minor pentatonic scales have?

the major pentatonic scale ( notes played are 1st note or "Root" note, then the 2nd, 3rd, 5th and the 6th) differs from the the minor pentatonic (1st, 3rd flatted, 4th, 5th, and 7th flatted) D major pentatonic: D, E, F#, A, and B (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 5th, and 6th notes of the D scale.) D minor pentatonic: D, F, G, A, and C (1st, 3rd flatted, 4th, 5th, and 7th flatted) (D =1st note , 3rd flatted = F (F# becomes F when flatted), G = 4th note, A = 5th note and 6th note flatted = C (C# becomes C when flatted). Hope that is helpful.. Same pattern applys to other notes for creating major and minor pentatonic scales.
