Discussion :comparing chinese and indus valley art and mesopotamian,

The art/architecture that we find in Bronze Age China and the Indus Valley was produced during the same period as the cultures that we’ve studied up to this point in time. What religious, political, or cultural differences can we interpret from the art that they produced? Select a specific example from each culture (Chinese and Indus Valley) and compare this to what we’ve seen in the Bronze Age cultures of Mesopotamia, Egypt or the Aegean. What is the purpose, underlying meaning, or intent and how does this compare with what we see elsewhere?
