Question

a work of art is considered prehistoric if it is:
a more than 5,000 years old
b from a culture that already possessed written language
c found in a cave
d now known when it was produced

Answer 1

A work of art is considered prehistoric if it is:

**a** more than 5,000 years old

Prehistoric art typically refers to works created before the advent of written records, which is generally around 5,000 years ago. While it may also include works found in caves (like cave paintings), simply being found in a cave does not definitively categorize it as prehistoric. The key factor is that it originates from a time before written history.
