How did the building materials of castles usually change in the years after a region was newly taken over?

  1. Stone castles were raised first and were later pulled down and replaced by cheaper timber ones
  2. Castles were built of brick from the start and never changed material
  3. Earth and timber castles went up quickly at first, and many were later rebuilt in stoneПравильный ответ
  4. Timber castles were built only after stone building had been forgotten

Объяснение

Earthwork and timber could be raised in weeks by unskilled labour, which mattered when a new lordship had to be held at once, and the slower, costlier material followed when time and money allowed. The reversed sequence fails because masonry needed skilled masons and years of work, so it could not have been the emergency first response to a newly seized district.
