Answer: c is not true.
Explanation: After 1491 Kongo royal and ritual figures were typically carved in wood and often embellished with metal (copper, iron, brass), ivory, beads and cloth — not mostly terracotta. By contrast increased Portuguese contact and trade did spur greater production of textiles and prestige regalia, so d is true.
