D. None of the above

Answer 1

C. Plagiarism

In a modern context, creating exact copies of someone else's work without proper attribution could be considered plagiarism, which is the act of using someone else's work or ideas as if they are your own. The Romans admired Greek art and often created replicas of Greek sculptures, which could be viewed as a form of this modern concept of plagiarism.
