Skinny Willy-holding Across Three Continents

Deity or corpse?

Ancient Hypotheses @AncientEpoch
Over the years we’ve all seen the collages of similar ancient motifs that cross continents, cultures & time span’s. Some of which include fake or misrepresented objects. Well here one that’s 100% factual to add to the list.

Left Statue from Kaharan Tepe. Circa 9,600 BCE

Center from Calakmul Mexico Circa 250 CE

Right Nias Island Sumatra Indonesia Circa 1915 CE

He later adds:

I think this similar motif across cultures continents and timeframe, between people who had no contact hints at a collective consciousness. And perhaps a “mother culture” that’s roots grew into branches that traversed the globe.

That seems rather a big leap for Eric Graziano ("a tool Design Engineer with 30 years of experience. Questioning the past. #ThinkBig #AncientHistory #MegalithicSites #ArcheoAstronomy") to be making.

Well, if we start with what we know the most about, the context of the Nias figure the third example. This is a warrior society. True, they did erect megalithic stelae and had clan houses (so could be argued to be a parallel to Karahan Tepe - but that seems not to be a warrior society). The figure chosen here to emulate a "connection across time and space" is however utterly atypical of their art styles generally - no match for the majority. Cherry picking !!
