feline jawbone Explanation: Pictorial narration on the vessels of Nasca culture. The case of the "Feliden man" ##This article is an analysis of ten Nasca vessels of the Early and Middle Nasca period (phases Nasca II-V) depicting various mythical beings in interaction. A very prominent mythical character of the Nasca pantheon, the feline-man, is defined. Half man, half feline he often carries a club and a bundle of ritual heads. http://www.anthropology-online.de/Aga05/0214.html Scientists have suspected for some time that people brought either wild or domesticated cats to Cyprus more than 9,000 years ago. A feline jawbone was discovered nearly 20 years ago at a site on the island dating to the ancient time. http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1200/is_15_165/ai_n61... |
