Ancient "faces in stone" etc. -- in our opinion correctly -- are assigned to the realm of prehistoric human art in a landmark museum exhibition at the Nasher Sculpture Center in Dallas, Texas [ designed by Prizker Prize-winning architect Renzo Piano
].
As written at Glasstire
:
" First Sculpture
is billed as the “first museum exhibition to present ancient handaxes and figure stones as works of art,” and indeed, the display of these stones is different from how they are usually presented in natural history or anthropology museums.
"
Although "art" in ancient sculptures and archaic stone carvings has been recognized previously by others, this exhibition is nevertheless a museum landmark in "carving out" the vista of a new pioneer direction for understanding prehistoric human life and activities.
This is in essence what we have been writing about for the last 40 years in "deciphering" the "art" figures, often anthropomorphic, found on megaliths and at megalithic sites.
A new "art era" is dawning, and it will focus on the human past.

Horse Riders and Modern European Language Origins: Proto-Indo-European Emergence
At Scientific American, Roni Jacobson
reports on new evidence linking horse riders ("equestrians") to the emergence of Proto-Indo-European language ("PIE"). See Scientific American
.
After reading that article
, take a look at our decipherment of the Avebury Henge Megaliths at our Ancient World Blog
, in particular Avebury Henge Stone #42
, which in our analysis represents the stars of Sagittarius as a horse rider.
Are we right? You better believe it!

Our view is that either you know something about this world, or you do not. Those of you who do want to know something, do read about the equestrian paradise Wellington, Florida, a playground for the richest of the rich .
Interesting for those of you out there who read beyond horse-blindered search engines such as Google Scholar,
is the Wellington Saga series (so its title in German), written originally in English by Jessica Whitman in the name of Nacho Figueras, the world's best-known professional polo player and Ralph Lauren model -- the "David Beckham of polo".
See Nacho Figueras Presents and his polo team Black Watch at https://www.facebook.com/Black-Watch-Polo-Team-8628204013/ and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BlackWatch_Polo_Team
Is there a larger "horse connection" at Wellington? Absolutely. As written at the Wikipedia: " Wellington is host to the Winter Equestrian Festival , the largest and longest running horse show in the world from January to April. "
Wellington, Florida also has interesting connections to Donald Trump, Bill Gates and Steve Jobs , see below.
Donald Trump
If you drive due West on US 98 from Mar-a-Lago, you arrive in Wellington after about 15 miles. Black Watch (former) owner Neil Hirsch lives in Wellington https://wikivividly.com/wiki/Neil_Hirsch and he is a childhood friend of Black Watch owner Peter M. Brant, who is a childhood friend of U.S. President Donald Trump. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_M._Brant
And read a bit about the The Polo Crashers ....
Bill Gates and Wellington
Steve Jobs' widow Laurene Powell Jobs and Wellington
So, just as in the days of far distant European antiquity, when it all comes down to where it's really at, it's the horses!
