Answer: c.
Explanation: After King Nzinga's conversion (1491) Kongo ties with Portugal and regional trade strengthened and brought greater wealth and stimulated production of textiles and prestige regalia. However, royal and religious regalia in Kongo were typically made from materials like wood, cloth/raffia, copper, ivory and other metals—not mostly terracotta.
