The Etruscans. Anthropologists are still trying to unravel the mystery of the origins of the Etruscan empire, a highly advanced Italic civilization formed around the eighth century B.C. in central Italy. Were they native to the Italian peninsula or, as many aspects of their civilization suggest, did they migrate from the East by land or sea? The maximum head breadth, in millimeters, of 70 modern Italian male skulls and 84 preserved Etruscan male skulls was analyzed to help researchers decide whether the Etruscans were native to Italy. The resulting data can be found on the WeissStats site. [SOURCE: N. Barnicot and D. Brothwell, “The Evaluation of Metrical Data in the Comparison of Ancient and Modern Bones.” In Medical Biology and Etruscan Origins, G. Wolstenholme and C. O’Connor, eds., Little, Brown&Co., 1959] a.

) Consider the following figures showing the situation of the Australian labourmarket in 2018 (figures are per thousand and in percentage).Employed persons ('000) 12 620.7Unemployed persons ('000) 711.9Unemployment rate (%) 5.4Participation rate (%) 65.6a. What is the labour force participation rate? Briefly checking some online sources is it lower or higherthan in other countries? Try to provide some explanation for the difference.b. Assume that the participation rate in Australia changes to 63%, but the adult population and the numberof employed remain unchanged (hint: if the adult population is not reported, you can calculate it easilyfrom the labour force and participation rate).
