Abubakary

Ziggurat Ziggurats store wheat and other grains that the residents of Abubakary grow. Ziggurats are usually at the center of the city. They are also used as temples.

Laws of Abubakary If one man strikes another man, they shall give the other man 1 bushel of wool. If one man steals the food of another man, he shall provide the mans family with food for a month. If one man steals a sheep from another man, he shall give the man 3 sheep and his hand shall be cut off.

Economy Make clothes out of sheep wool and we trade pottery and jewelry to get the things we need to survive. We eat lamb in place of the sacred cow.

Leaders of Abubakary For leaders we have a king and a queen.

Religion and How We Handle Our Dead Polytheism: The belief in many gods. We handle our dead by putting them on a raft, setting them on fire, and floating them down the river.
