The drum carvings

Now I look at it, I can see what you mean, it even has a bit of 3d perspective if you take the bottom chevron as the site of the barrow. If it was true it might imply that the drums were carved on site maybe especially for the burial. Nice little theory fella.

Thanks for the comment Chris.
It's one of those things that nags at me every time i look at those drum carvings.
It might just be coincidence but it does seem to fit in some ways.
Now i've just got to interpret the other panels, back in 5 minutes. ; )

Edited, double post.
