so i know this isnt native american but talk about an effigy!!! this was made about 3500 years ago...if the greeks could do this then, dont you think native peoples here could do better than tumbled rocks that sort of look like something if you hold it a certain way with the right lighting?..

I have always maintained that we don't give extinct cultures enough credit on their skills.
 

I couldn't agree more , even the amazing detail and skill put into a arrowhead you would think people would take that into account when "thinking they have n effigy" that looks like a 3rd graders art project. Anyways .... The article you posted is really cool that stamp is amazing the detail is unreal they were brilliant.
 

Thread moved to "Everything Else" forum as it is not American Indian artifact.
