louisvillekyshop CCF Advertiser United States 1311 Posts	Posted 06/27/2020 11:26 am Bob and Kushanshah; With all the Artemis Cult Statues I looked up last night I noticed very few have the lines from the sides like this one does. And sometimes what I thought were lines were what was left of stag images. Any idea about the lines and why or why not you see them? (Sadly I am not even saying what they represent as I actually don't know..) Report this Post to the Staff
Novicius Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 1168 Posts	Posted 06/27/2020 12:53 pm Just a thought, and it may be wrong, but I've seen a few in a similar reverse configuration with "lines". Here are two images I found on-line. Both show Artemis with a "branch" in each hand. Could the lines be representations of twigs on the branches? Jim Report this Post to the Staff

But very well trained if so as the Medusa head serpents go in all directions and these on the left of Artemis are headed down and the ones on the right are headed up, quite in unison of direction.
