Interesting how the Daniel buckle resembles Middle #Byzantine ones depicting maybe charioteers, no lions only horses. This one from #Samospic.twitter.com/kRLSmVvuaB
Thanks, most interesting! :)
He looks like he's made of milk chocolate. I prefer dark chocolate myself. Do they have him in that as well?
They really ought to.... ;)
Why not? An easter egg line inspired by archaological remains & the box with explanatory script & image. For children of all ages.
I think it'd be a definite winner! :)
And many would never get eaten, just admired. Good for teeth.
Way cooler than a chocolate bunny.
They really ought to sell Easter eggs based on it.....!
Actually that might not be a bad idea for the museum.
does it come with almonds?
Chocolate lion? *swoon*
Shouldn't this sherd be shared?
