Unit 3: Early Europe & Colonial Americas
Art History · Unit 3 · Paper 3

Early Europe & Colonial Americas unit test

A test on this unit alone, marked as a percentage and a letter grade — for the test your class is actually sitting, rather than for May. Answer everything, then submit once: seeing the answer to question 3 before attempting question 4 makes the final percentage meaningless.

Each paper is built from this unit’s 30 terms and is the same for everyone, so a teacher can assign “Unit 3, Paper 3” and every student sits the identical test. Multiple choice is marked objectively; the written sections you mark yourself against the model answer and rubric.

This course has no free-response prompt tagged to this unit, so one from elsewhere in the course is used. It is still worth writing — the skill transfers.

Compare and contrast the function and significance of the Augustus of Prima Porta with the Palette of King Narmer. How do both works communicate the power of the ruler?
