Not quite. The antiquity part I mentioned was just 1/4 of the reasoning, but put that together with the other pics I presented... what does each one represent? This may be more than a one-word answer, and is obviously varied.

So, the reasoning for this combo is essentially another combo :-/ ? I'm confused now.

Okay, no. I'm sorry. This is the reasoning for the concept, which combines four combos together. "Antiquity" stands for pretty much just one of those combos. Yet t is a step in the right direction.

Classic
Dark
Discovery
Art

What could they mean? Antiquity partially belongs with one of these.

I'm guessing all different historical eras:

"Antiquity" stands for "Classic"
"Medieval" stands for "Dark" (as in, the Dark Ages)
I'm guessing "Renaissance" stands for "Discovery", and "Modern" for "Art"?

Now what would you call those? You've pretty much got it, just for words' sake what would you the Renaissance, Dark Ages if you were to put them together?

And actually art was Renaissance, discovery was the Age of Discovery, but nonetheless close enough.

EDIT: Oh wait, you said historical eras. This is correct.
Now for some additional clues:

Close in both regards, but not completely accurate. Think texture for one of those choices.

Yes, now for the reasoning, think product not process.

This one is a specific word too since it relates to the other concepts in the wall.

A synonym of that word yes. Trust me, this synonym does actually matter. I'll give you credit for it once you find the synonym (no one else can get it since you basically solved it).

Yes, that's it. 25 points for combo and reasoning. Now just two more.

Does that make sense?

I'm guessing that 'Soil' wasn't in the original farming combo, and 'Water' was instead. If correct, that would leave Info / Metal / Pollute / Money. However, I'm not sure that Type / Search / Click / Work was the originally intended combo, so the final combo could also contain a word from there. I'll go for:

Work / Metal / Pollute / Money: Factory?

What do you mean? Overall, I would say no...

Clue: In a way this one is similar to the green wall's. but not completely. Economy does have a role, albeit small.

Here they are in the right order:

Ah....I put 'Stone' after 'Farming'. Maybe that was my problem.

Yep.

Now for the final concept: Where can all these things be found? Or rather, how would you place these concepts together?
It's almost LITERAL.
