Classic two-faced
bird figure with
quasi-human face (note the purple crystal forming the iris
of the eye), and the head of another creature forming
the opposite (right) end. |
Above:
A microcarving on the rock in the top photo - general bird
form with a mouth (left)
distinctly
in the form of a bird profile,
from which a small figure
emerges.

Another carved rock from
the same location - characteristic faces at both ends. |
These were collected by the
author in 1992, only because they were pretty souvenirs for his
daughter. Eleven years later, upon close inspection they
were recognized as artifacts. |
