question 13 (multiple choice worth 3 points)
generic etruscan temple plan

1. podium (or base) | 2. entrance steps | 3. columns/colonnade | 4. porch | 5. cella (three part)

the generic etruscan, unlike the egyptian new kingdom temple, does not have which of the following?
enclosure wall
hypostyle hall
porch
stella

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze the architectural features of Etruscan and Egyptian New Kingdom temples. The Etruscan temple plan (with porch, columns, cella) is compared to Egyptian New Kingdom temples, which have a hypostyle hall (a large hall with many columns). The Etruscan temple (from the plan) doesn't have a hypostyle hall, while it may have enclosure walls, porches, or stelae (or not, but hypostyle hall is a key feature of Egyptian New Kingdom temples like Karnak/Luxor, absent in Etruscan).

Answer:

B. Hypostyle hall (assuming the options are labeled, but based on content, the correct option is "Hypostyle hall" as Etruscan temples lack this feature present in Egyptian New Kingdom temples with hypostyle halls.)
