Animal, Vegetable, Mineral and Abstract.
You ask questions which in theory I should be able to answer Yes or No to find what I am thinking about.
Abstract includes Gods & Magic. There is a problem of where to draw the line. The examples I have given are fairly arbitrary -
I would class an image of a god as having abstract connections but not a piece of jewellery which includes a god.
A pyramid is not abstract despite its roll in making pharaoh a god.
A temple has abstract connections but a part of a temple (except the shrine & the statues) has not.
Dates - beware - ‘Is it middle kingdom? ‘ would get a Yes if -
