You tell her that you have noticed some similarities. What could you tell her to support your argument that prehistoric and ancient art have some things in common?

(1 point)

Both have a written history that was left behind by various cultures that help explain the pieces.

Both types of art originated in Mesopotamia, the "cradle of civilization."

Both have pieces that were made of durable materials.

Both use the process known as red-figure style.

Answer 1

Both have pieces that were made of durable materials.

Explanation: Prehistoric and ancient artworks that survive today are often made of durable materials (stone, bone, clay, metal), which is why we can study them. The other choices are incorrect: prehistoric cultures left no written records, prehistoric art did not originate specifically in Mesopotamia, and red-figure is a specific ancient Greek technique, not prehistoric.
