<p>[QUOTE="Valentinian, post: 2046216, member: 44316"]That statue (of the kneeling Astarte) does not look ancient to me. It has a modest pose unlike the vast majority of ancient statues. The face and hair look to be a modern style, unlike severe and serious styles usually seen BC. How can I question its antiquity given supposed facts such as "Unearthed and found in Sidon"? It just doesn't look right.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
