Michael,
Yes, that's the exact image. I went back to my last post, and the image is showing. I think Jasper (hopefully) fixed the problem. As you can see, the Qin cavalry horse has 4 characteristic style elements found on Pazyryk Culture mounts, not found in other cultures at this time. (Later, the Alans used braided/twisted tails and crenellated their horses' manes... so the connection starts here in Warring States to Qin periods.) I was hoping for some feedback by other RAT members.
