      Not to rain on your parade but Egyptians were making stuff like pic rel in 1350 BCE

      also true. The fact that Etruscans made impressive bronze works just offers even more evidence that greek styles spread across italy in the early iron age.
      Imagine being so moronic you think Italians just coincidentally used the same realism and lost wax casting as Greeks who were colonizing in the same peninsula

        It feels good to know that fat fricks like me could still succeed even ~5000 years ago.

          Yes? I know you are. The size alone of the lion make the casting much more impressive since they had to fuse the different pasts together, obviously making one small stylized head was much easier

    Bronze casting is easy, just make a good mold and you can mass produce any shape. Bronze in ancient times was like modern day plastics

      The famous lions with snake tails and a goat's head on back

      But no, Italy had no lions since at least the upper Paleolithic, Greece did have lions until the classical age or roman period though

            1. ACCORDING TO WHOM?

            2. IT IS INFERRED THAT IT IS ETRUSCAN, BASED ON THE CHRONOLOGY; THE CHRONOLOGY IS BASED ON FAULTY DATING METHODS.

            3. IF YOU LOOK AT THAT STATUE, AND BELIEVE THAT IT IS FROM THE FIFTH CENTURY BEFORE CHRIST OUR LORD, YOU ARE DUMB.

            I'm just gonna pre-empt this "ALL CHRONOLOGY IS LIES" and ask you to explain why european historical chronologies and observations of astronomical events match ones from other civilizations like persia and china including ones in central and south america that died out and had their ruins swallowed by the jungle centuries before spaniards even arrived
