Question

I have to choose a sculpture from the greece / rome era, and write down who the artist or which prehistoric culture its from. Since most of the sculptures don't have an artist, Can i write the sculpture is from the classical period? Does that count as a prehistoric culture? Because during the Greece era the periods were called classical.. archaic.... hellenistic..

Answer 9

In general, you can consider any sculpture from 900 BC or earlier to be 'prehistoric,' since the word means 'before writing.'
