(a) Punch marked coins(i) Stamped glazed pottery
(b) Northern Black polished ware(ii) Tall double handled jars
(c) Amphorae(iii) Extremely fine pottery
(d) Arretine ware(iv) Stamped with symbols using dyes

  • A.(a) - (iv), (b) - (i), (c) - (iii), (d) - (ii)
  • B.(a) - (iv), (b) - (i), (c) - (ii), (d) - (iii)
  • C.(a) - (iv), (b) - (iii), (c) - (ii), (d) - (i)
  • D.(a) - (iv), (b) - (ii), (c) - (iii), (d) - (i)

Answer: C

The correct matching is (a) - (iv), (b) - (iii), (c) - (ii), (d) - (i).

  • Punch-marked coins were stamped with symbols using dies (iv).
  • Northern Black Polished Ware is an extremely fine, thin pottery with a glossy black finish, found at many sites in the north (iii).
  • Amphorae were tall double-handled jars that carried liquids such as wine and olive oil (ii).
  • Arretine ware, named after Arretium in Italy and found at Arikamedu, is stamped glazed pottery (i).

All four options agree on punch-marked coins. The other three swap at least one pair: options pairing Northern Black Polished Ware with 'stamped glazed pottery' or amphorae with 'extremely fine pottery' confuse the two kinds of pottery with each other or with the jars.
