His account also reveals restrictions on scientific inquiry, separate entrances for men and women, and laws that favor pentagonal buildings to protect travelers from sharp corners.

- Pentagonal houses have separate eastern and western entrances for women and men.
- Safety laws restrict sharp building corners, making pentagonal houses standard except for rare surviving square houses.
