5. While visiting a museum, your class is able to see The Palette of Narmer. One of your classmates, Aki, doesn't think this

plece is special at all. How would you explain to Aki why this plece is special?

1).It is one of the oldest surviving pieces of Sumerian art.

2).This plece shows some of the oldest writings in cunelform.

3). It appears to have been created to mark the unification of Egypt.

4). It Illustrates the standard Mesopotamian way of depicting the human figure.

The answer is "3). It appears to have been created to mark the unification of Egypt."

It isn't 1, as the Palette of Narmer is an Egyptian artwork, not Sumerian.
It isn't 2, as it doesn't feature cuneiform, but hieroglyphs.
It isn't 4, as the art isn't Mesopotamian, but Egyptian.
