Exam 3 Review and Description(1)

Global Art & Visual Culture: Exam 3 Review Exam 3 consists of 40 multiple choice questions, and you will have 60 minutes to complete it. This time limit is to ensure that you complete the review prior to taking the quiz. If you try to look up answers while taking the quiz, you will run out of time. The questions are delivered all at once. If you lose your internet connection while taking the quiz, you will be able to log back on and continue where you left off. However, the timer will still run while you are not working on the quiz, so make sure you get back into it immediately. If you encounter technical problems in taking the test, call IT support at 806-742-HELP and also e-mail me immediately at bryan.e.wheeler@ttu.edu . I highly recommend that you do not wait until the last second to take the quiz, because once the due date passes, you will not be able to take it. There are no late or make-up quizzes allowed without documentation of an extended absence. Finally, you will not be able to view your finished test until the quiz due date has passed. After that has occurred, you will be able to see the questions you answered incorrectly. Exam 3 covers all videos and Confab Sessions (both the Intro Video Lectures and the sessions themselves) from Week 10-Week 12. No questions appear on the exam that are not on this review. _____________________________________________________________________________________ The Origins of Art Confab  Why did we discuss Bob Ross in our Confab on the Origins of Art?  How did Dr. Wheeler "interpret" the inverted triangle with a line coming from the bottom image from the “composite” petroglyph in the 4 Corners Region of the American Southwest during the Origins of Art confab?  What element(s) in the Horse and Riders pictograph from the 4 Corners Region of the American Southwest allow us to date it as being painted sometime in the last half of the 1800s?  What recent archaeological find has led us to revise our timeline for the first homo sapiens arrival in China from 50,000 years ago to 80-to-120,000 years ago?  What are the strategies we use to interpret prehistoric art?  What prior species of hominids did homo sapiens encounter in Europe approximately 40,000 years ago?  Almost all Paleolithic rock art represents _____________.  The Upper Paleolithic refers to the time period between ___________ and ___________ years ago.  Homo sapiens originated in _______________.
