My vote for D

The argument states that the occupant of the tomb died during the
reign of a sicilian ruler 2700 years ago. We need to connect the vase
to the occupant and that the occupant possessed the vase during his
time.

D bridges this gap and rules out the possibility that the vase came
into the picture after the occupant died.

Can someone please explain this in detail.


Why can't C be the answer ?

Would appreciate.

C cant be the answer as it talks about something that is irrelevant, large ships capable of transporting large?

what we are told that whatever vase has been found in Greece is from Silcian and so concluding that some sort of trade happen between the two.

What could be the assumption: Any thing that bride he gap
Or one that kills some alternates.

The vase was not placed by later generations is an possiblity, that author has assumed didn't happened that is why he was sure that some trade happened between them at earlier specified time...

a very bad analogy, you saw the milk on table, you saw the cat enetring yur house, then you saw the milk pot has fallen, you concluded the cat did so. What could be your assumption, your little kid didnt tried to reach at that..as if u have thought so, u had never concluded the cat did that..

So D..

Conclusion is that there was trade between S and G.

For this to be true, one has to assume that no one visited the tomb in those 2700 years.

Hence D.
