<p>[QUOTE="Loong Siew, post: 3359472, member: 75799"]Thanks [USER=32619]@Jwt708[/USER] .. Actually the image has multiple interpretations. Some say Heraclius and his son. Others say it is Helios (Apollo) and Mercury. This coincides with an astrological event which took place in 576 AH = 1180/1 AD, when the planet Mercury passed the face of the Sun. The latter would be even more fantastic given the Muslims forbid depictions of other gods or idolatry except for Allah[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
