Could it not be common coincidence since many ancient cultures venerated serpents?

[/QUOTE]Djehuti, stop being ridiculous. One of these is obviously a copy of the other. You have not even shown other mythological animals with abnormally long necks but further these, both lioness' like me, are in a very specific particular symmetrical configuration with their necks intertwined and heads facing each or. This was not a coincidence. stop trying too hard. Deal with this reality Which one came first is unknown, both items have not been precisely dated.

And what do these figures have to do with Egypt?? [/QUOTE]Look: [IMG]http://wysinger.homestead.com/Gebelelarak.jpg[/IMG] The opposite side of the handle shows Mesopotamian influence featuring[b] the god El, wearing Mesopotamian clothing,[/b] flanked by two upright lions symbolizing the Morning and Evening Stars The Gebel el-Arak Knife is a 25.50 cm long knife [b]dating from circa 3300 to 3200 BC, the late pre-dynastic period in Egypt,[/b] which when it was purchased in Cairo was said to have been found at the site of Gebel el-Arak, south of Abydos. The knife is on display at the Musée du Louvre, (Accession number E 11517). Another knife of similar materials but worn and battered, is conserved at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. ^^^^how can you escape this, the God El in Mesopotamian clothing on an Egyptian knife ???
