    Seen it before. Can't remember where. Think it's upside down as well.

    it looks like a native american symbol for a snake, by native american id guess navahgo (spelling) or even as far south as aztec/toltec/mayan

    but its definetly from the americas

    Not Navajoe, but I'm almost sure it's an Aztec symbol. Looks like a portrayal of a Gila monster lizard- remember seeing something exactly like it on a Nat'l Geographic documentary. The forked tongue and posture of the lizard leave me in no doubt, though I might be wrong.

    Maybe there's clue in the name? Is it a millipede?

    it dose look like a dick ...
    but dono what its from becides guessing the symbol for fertility maby

    what type of world will we live in when there is no world ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 898 ✭✭✭Winning Hand


    Im pretty sure its not Navajo, and it doesnt strike me as being aztec or inca either, its missing references to the sun which prevail in most of their works.
    The protrusion above the "head" is confusing me as it is unlike any of the other ones.

    Is it too aggressive for greco-roman?

    If I had to guess, and I stress guess I'd say its far eastern in origin, mongolian or japanese maybe

    its a fertility symbol <view it on its side>
    Probally one of the most reoccurring themes throughout precivillised cultures worldwide,
    <after the man with a giant "thingy".>
    Sun motive,Cycle of life,universal order,would sugest highly civilised belief system,inca possibly or pre-colombian,although the eye in the center is reminisent of Ra the eygptian sun god it is a reoccuring image throughout SA.
    in a collectors auction expect to pay £1000 dollar yen.
    ok im bluffing.

    Well, I don't know what it represents but the creature is clearly a millipede. The filename should have been a bit of a give-away.

    Not a snake, a dragon or a boy's bits.
