Answer 2

Correct answer choice is:

A. The Zuni pot was intended for everyday use; the Chinese vessel was intended for ritual use.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Zuni pueblos create a freakish form of pottery that can readily be discriminated from the different pueblo pottery standards based on style, layout, and substances. The Zuni use a white to grayish mud with a crushed rock strength and decorate their vessels with a shiny white sheet and a dark brown to black metal paint that is usually emphasized by a dark red metallic paint. With efficiency always in mind, Zuni potters did not concentrate on the balance of form as much as their friends at Acoma but rather on the design themes. On the other hand, The time of the Shang and the Zhou lines is commonly recognized as the Bronze Age of China, because bronze, a combination of copper and tin, applied to form weapons, parts of chariots, and ritual pots performed an essential part in the tangible history of the era.
