How does society stand to gain through educated and healthier people?

Society as a whole benefits from healthier people for a number of reasons: * Fewer people calling in sick, resulting in better productivity. * Fewer people tied up in the care of the sick, allowing them to be used to increase productivity. * Research can go to improvement of life, rather than toward health issues. * Think about the billions of dollars spent on the diet industry in the US every year and apply that to elimination of poverty, hunger, illiteracy, etc. Education allows people to find better and more effective ways of doing things, which increases productivity.

ANSWER

society has already gained many times over from 'educated' people

even from hundreds and thousands of years ago, people who educated themselves in knowledge and understanding are responsible for most of the fabulous inventions, discoveries and ideas we have today

they have knowledge on their side instead of superstition, which back then was all too common,

and superstition without educated people intertwined in it would have us living in something like the dark ages, because uneducated purely superstitious people were scared of these new things and mostly considered them to be evil etc

so if we were still like that and had no education or educated people we would all still be scared of the unknows, un-understood and new

so as long as there are people out there willing to learn take everything into consideration and then teach the world humanity will always be advancing further forward

we benefit from healthier people because it helps humanity live longer and carry on our existence that bit further and longer

and of course the healthier people have better chance of enriching our lives with more knowledge due to their lust for life, energy and knowledge

The Mayan government was like the governments of other early river valley civilizations. Maya city-states were theocracies. In a theocracy, the people believed that their rulers were in direct contact with the gods. For the Maya, religion and government were the same. There was no division between the two.

It was the job of the rulers to make sure that the gods kept the people safe. They did this by performing rituals. The Maya believed that they needed to feed their gods with blood. Kings, priests, and nobles offered their own blood in religious rituals. This practice is called bloodletting. The priest or noble would pierce part of their body. Then, they would give their blood to the gods. Sometimes, however, they believed that a sacrifice was needed.

The Maya, as well as other civilizations throughout Mesoamerica, practiced human sacrifice. People offered for sacrifice usually came from outside a city. Many were prisoners of war.

Where did warriors keep their arrows while fighting?

Arrows were normally kept in quivers in earlier times, then more commonly in pouches later on. These quivers and pouches were either strapped to a horse's saddle, hung from the belt, or slung across the back (as depicted in various films). Sometimes the arrows were simply stuck into the ground in front of the archer before use; the archer pulled one out of the ground, nocked it and fired. When he needed to fight hand-to-hand, he simply put down his bow and drew a sword or axe.
