Look at the enormous limestone statue below. known as the great sphinx of giza, it was created in about 2500 bce in egypt. what conclusion can you reasonably draw from this artifact?



a. egyptian civilization in 2500 bce was the most advanced in the world. b. stone carving was the most valued skill a person could have in early egypt. c. people living in early egypt valued technology more than religion. d. early egyptians were capable of carving complex figures in stone.

A is incorrect, you cannot come to such a conclusion by looking at a picture of a Sphinx

B is incorrect, you'd need far more information to assume that stone carving was the MOST valued skill in early Egypt

C is incorrect, a picture of a Sphinx tells us very little about  whether the Egyptians valued technology over religion.

Just by looking at the Sphinx, one can infer that the ancient Egyptians were capable of carving couple figures in stone. They DID make the Sphinx, after all.

Answer=D
