Sculpture Statue
mysterious Bronze Statue or sculpture found! please help?
In Guyana, in my hometown on the East Coast Demerara, 80 years ago, my grandfather was digging in a drain, clean and do not .... He stumbled into this small bright object in the mud. When he collected and dried, showed that this object was a bronze statue of a strange woman. My grandfather has been dead for 15 years, and the only thing I have of him. I have trouble understanding why this or that representation of a mysterious woman. If someone can if you please tell me who or what it is, I'd be very grateful. Thank you in advance. I have this image link here: http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll98/unknowncaller66629/brasswoman.jpg
This seems a small bust of Athena, Greek goddess. He seems to have been made for tourists, not an antique. It's beautiful but not super useful. Take a curator of a local museum for a better evaluation of it, however.

Horse Statue
What does it mean when a statue of a man on horseback to 1 foot on the ground?
So I know that the two legs means that died in combat and no legs means that died of natural causes, but what 1 leg? hurt? ... ideas?
If I remember Well, If the horse has two front paws in the air, the person died in battle. If the horse has one leg in the air, the person has been injured, whether in combat or died of wounds received in battle (not in combat, but as a result of the battle). And if the horse has all four paws planted on the ground, the person died of natural causes. * * Updated decided to see if I could find nothing about this on Snopes, and this is what I found: statue.asp http://www.snopes.com/military/
