D. Symbolism

Explanation:

The art in the times before the 1st century AD is called the Pre-iconic phase as it did not represent the face and bodily depictions of Buddha. He was never depicted in the human form that we imagine today. The art was rich with Buddhist symbolism and Buddha presented through the abstract forms and symbols – dharma wheel, endless knot, white parasol, lotus flower, etc.

In the 1st century AD, likely influenced by Greco-Roman art, Buddhist art entered into the iconic phase. This means the image of anthropomorphic Buddha started to appear more, although the symbolism that was adopted beforehand remains and is used until today.

        i think it is referred as the 8th wonder of the world because each of the terra cotta warriors was not the same. they each had many things with their physical stature, like different height, armor, and different characteristics, which were all different. what makes it interesting is that there were 8,000 soldiers in that tomb. so making that many soldiers for the emperor meant a-lot to the emperor. it means that their is strength in numbers now matter how different.
