Art history

One full paragraph answer for each question 

1-What building techniques have captured your attention from the videos, readings this week? Discuss and comment on one or two of these building techniques and explain why you find these techniques interesting.

2-For this reflection discussion, I would like you to think about sacrificial rituals of the Inkas.  To do that you can compare and contrast this image of Inca sun-mask to the golden Llama.  What are some of the differences, similarities? How do you think these masks were used in spiritual ceremonies?  Another way to think about these rituals is to think of and discuss the usage of gold in these rituals.
