As a former comedian who is super into archaeology, learning this made me very happy.
I was curious as to why the had holes through them. According to the article the bowls were ‘killed’ before being placed on the heads of the deceased as a burial rite.
A person probably had their favorite bowl and when they died their relatives punched a hole through it to make it useless and stuck it on their head.
This is absolutely awsome. The style is so good. I need this at home.
My older brother has been drawing stuff in a similar style his whole life. I sent him links and it blew his mind.
I wish I was a rabbit with a sword
And a six-four Impala
I wish I was like six-foot-nine
So I can get with Leoshi
'Cause she don’t know me
But, yo, she’s really fine
