  1. Wow! Those are really cool, and so detailed! I think the 5th one down kinda looks like two snowmen wearing hats. And the last one looks like the statue of liberty. :)

  2. Thanks Jen!

    The one that looks like two snowmen (hilarious!) are actually two Palmyrene temple priests. The one that looks like the statue of liberty is the Palmyrene sun god Yarhibol. Little archaeology nerd trivia for ya.
