Scorpios

A late but beautiful one was published by J.K.Petersen here:

It is from Morgan ms G.1, Book of Hours, France, Loire, ca. 1475

I guess it was excluded on the basis of the date, but I like it anyway (it also has hears, even if they are not of the roo-kind).

I don't know why it wasn't included, unless I just didn't come across it. I tried to include everything that might be a possible model or influence that resembled the one in the VMS. And I think I remember seeing it. Maybe it was the date - don't remember. Maybe I just couldn't get my magic box machine to copy the image (that's happened a few times).

The other possibility is that it got clipped and lost while reassembling the images into a coherent (mostly) whole. There may be a few other such missing images from various files.

Some researchers seem to tend to leave out images or facts that don't shed a favorable light on their theory(ies). I don't. Since the focus of my research has been (and is still) the text, I am not as selective or protective of my image finds and ideas as some others might be. I just throw everything out there to be viewed and evaluated by others.
 
Some of these images, like the green water file, I have gathered without any theory or ideas, only because I could and because you others might be interested.

No sense in us doing the searching twice.

Thank you for sending in your image find. If more get sent in (hope, hope), I will redo the stats at the end of the file and maybe enlarge the area of use of the form.

Thank you.

In my humble opipion, someone should assemble a file similar to my Scorpios file (the big one, not just the 24 or whatever the number is) on the Sagittarius archers to show likenesses, dates and areas of origin/use. That may reveal something hitherto unsuspected, especially if assembled from earliest date of appearance onward (as opposed to doing it region by region or for one specific region only). It needs to be as all inclusive as possible.

But not me.

I did the Scorpios and don't want to be a hog. (And I am essentially a very lazy person.)

Maybe it could be a community project with everyone sending in their contributions to a compiler person?

Thank you.
