Excavation of the ancient city of Kourion on the island of Cyprus revealed a pattern of debris and collapsed buildings typical of towns devastated by earthquakes. Archaeologists have hypothesized that the destruction was due to a major earthquake known to have occurred near the island in A.D. 365.
Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the archaeologists' hypothesis?
Bronze ceremonial drinking vessels that are often found in graves dating from years preceding and following A.D. 365 were also found in several graves near Kourion.
No coins minted after A.D. 365 were found in Kourion, but coins minted before that year were found in abundance.
Most modern histories of Cyprus mention that an earthquake occurred near the island in A.D. 365.
Several small statues carved in styles current in Cyprus in the century between A.D. 300 and A.D. 400 were found in Kourion.
Stone inscriptions in a form of the Greek alphabet that was definitely used in Cyprus after A.D. 365 were found in Kourion.
因为硬币后来没发现所以就是有地震了???这是什么鬼逻辑
其实更重要的是断定年代。我的看法就是地震只是题目的背景,因为题干第一句话就已经说明了”城市毁于地震“的evidence。最后的重点在于突然出现的精确年代,之前题干从未说过”年代“二字,但在此处突然出现。所以说断代更加重要。
在365年之后没有发现硬币就说明这个城市只在365年前活跃。所以可以断定这个城市365年时候遭遇灾难,彻底废弃。
你的逻辑是蛮鬼的 题目告诉你地震肯定发生了 不是因为硬币推导的地震
