Ua94/6/1 Townsquares In Southcentral Kentucky, Peter Momcilovich

Student/Alumni Personal Papers

Research paper for Geography 500 class.

Town squares have many varieties in types of forms and functions. From ancient Greece to the present time, the basic function of the town square has remained the same, to serve as the heart of the city.

When triggered by an animal's weight, the heavy steel jaws spring shut over a paw or a leg with such force that bones are sometimes broken. Some leghold traps contain sharp steel teeth that pierce all the way through flesh and muscles.
