Archaeologists uncovered 12,000 animal bones fro ancient dump. These bones showed that people a sheep and goats.Chickens and cows were also or menu. What didn't they find? Pig bones.

To suggest that ancient : Hebrews created food laws t make sure people ate meat C.To give details abou t how food laws told the ancient

Answer 1

The best answer is **C. To give details about how food laws told the ancient [Hebrews] what they could eat.**The passage focuses on the archaeological evidence (animal bones) and how it supports the known food laws of the ancient Hebrews. It doesn't compare the consumption rates of different animals (ruling out A) and doesn't discuss the *purpose* of the food laws beyond restricting certain foods (ruling out B). The passage simply illustrates how archaeological findings align with the historical record of these dietary restrictions.
