I just posted two very short flash card series. These are far from complete, and I encourage you to set up such study aids in Quizlet or similar groups to study for the final. 10% of the final + 5% extra credit will consist of period style id's. I will take all id's from one of two sources: 1) your text, or 2) this website of gorgeous images of National Museum objects.
Here are the style period categories you may use as a response:
As you can see, some style categories are more important than others. I will be testing most heavily for what we studied most.

MidTerm Question #3
"Describe the program of the closed (northern) court at the site of La Venta. Use specific deposits and objects when possible."
What exactly do you mean by saying "program"? - The ensemble of deposits (masks, sculptures, burials) buried underneath the north court.

Research
I have been trying to research for my ceramic monkey vessel for North Peru. You suggested Chris Donnan but I am having a very hard time finding him. Do you know a specific book that I could look at, I saw one called Ceramics of Ancient Peru but once I look through your search engine I cannot find it. Any suggestions?
