Why is the later portion of the Upper Paleolithic period, when the Magdalenian culture was dominant, associated with a much higher number of lamps than earlier in the Upper Paleolithic period?

This is an EXCEPT question. The four wrong answers should tells us about a difference between the late Upper Paleolithic and the earlier parts of the Upper Paleolithic that could lead to a greater number of lamps being associated with the late period.

This suggests we might be less able to identify artifacts from the earlier period as lamps, which could explain why the late period is associated with a greater number of lamps.

If we’ve found more sites from the Magdalenian culture than from earlier cultures, this suggests the greater number of lamps from the late Upper Paleolithic may be due to finding more sites (and hence, more artifacts) from this period than from earlier periods.

If the Magdalenians had more efficient lamp-making techniques than earlier cultures, that suggests they could make more lamps within a given time, which could explain why the late Upper Paleolithic is associated with more lamps.

If fire pits were more common in the earlier Upper Paleolithic, that could suggest less of a need for lamps, which could explain why the earlier period is associated with fewer lamps than is the later period.

More kinds of lamps simply means a greater variety of lamps. But it doesn’t explain why there’s a greater number of lamps associated with the late Upper Paleolithic. We wouldn’t expect a culture with 5 different styles of lamps to have more lamps than a culture with only 1 style.
