        Will have to translate in tweets. Rather difficult as French historians can be quite verbose. Like me. Giggles

        It's an interesting idea, but worth noting that Christ on a horse etc is found in Revelations :)https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Revelation+19%3A11-16&version=NRSV …

        I believe that Celtic coins with the solar rider predate the Revelations by few hundred years :)
