Boa Island

edit

(transfered from user page)

Hi, thanks for your excellent work on Boa Island. If you have a lot of information about the Janus figure, you might want to create a new article specifically about it. All the best, Bláthnaid 14:40, 11 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for your compliment. I would like to avoid the "Janis" implication and stress that it is the Boa Island figure... in order to let this unusual statue have its own recognition as a Celtic figure and I will pursue it as time allows when I have more details gathered about it and the similar stone carvings of its period. There are other two-faced statues in other cultures and it is a shame to relate this to the Roman one just because a poet was familiar with that one... I'll let you know when I tackle it and am copying this discussion to the page itself for future reference. 83d40m (talk) 00:59, 12 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hi. I'd suggest you move one or two images to the left, to keep them nearer the text and avoid the unsightly break in the references bit. Nice article. athinaios (talk) 08:24, 12 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the note about the gap -- went to another computer and saw what you meant... not all browsers display the same thing! Will play with the images until it works correctly. 83d40m (talk) 01:00, 13 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

Turkish Balbals - Stone Fathers

edit

Startling similarities to Turkish Stone Statues, called Balbal or Tasbaba: Check the wiki up:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurgan_stelae

They are "very" similar!

where is the junction?

The only pic on the Turkish wiki:

https://tr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balbal

pic: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Balbal.jpg

is "the same".
