Salve, Robert. I agree with you, and we will never know, unless we can interview the sculptors.
This is off subject a bit, but I was just studying the cave paintings in Spain and France for a primitive bow project I am working on, and it facinates me to no end how sophisticated ancient art (including the Romans and Greeks) was. It all had to be rediscovered by various cultures. Nothing new under the sun, eh?
Further, I have officially began my interpretation (meaning building it) of the hand held arrow firing torsion weapon (yeah, this one we are talking about). I'll share my progress with all of you as it comes together.
