ladybird 老师 内部教材系列《VIP 学生听力文本》 Lecture-Art History (Prehistoric Art Dating) Narrator Listen to part of a lecture in an art history class. Professor Good morning, ready to continue our review of prehistoric art? Today, we will be covering the Upper Paleolithic Period, which I am roughly defining as the period from 35,000 to 8,000 B.C. A lot of those cave drawings you have all seen come from this period. But we’ll also be talking about portable works of art, things that could be carried around from place to place. Here is one example. 1 This sculpture is called the Lady with the Hood , and it was carved from ivory, probably a mammoth’s tusk. Its age is a bit of a mystery. According to one source, it dates from 22,000 B.C. But other sources claimed it has been dated closer to 30,000 B.C. Amy? Amy Why don’t we know the exact date when this head was made? Professor That’s a fair question. We are talking about prehistory here. 【So obviously the artists didn’t put a signature or a date on anything they did. 】 Xiaohong Huang 8/17/13 10:12 PM So how do we know when this figure was carved?
