PASSAGE
The Great Wall of China stretches approximately 13,000 miles across northern China. Construction began during the 7th century BC under various warring states, but the wall as we know it today was largely built during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). The wall was designed to protect China from invasions by northern nomadic tribes. It is made primarily of brick, stone, and earth, with watchtowers positioned at regular intervals. Contrary to popular belief, the Great Wall is not visible from space with the naked eye.
According to the passage, what materials were primarily used to build the Great Wall?
