I can see her! Either that, or a sign that Norton's been a bad dog again.
You know, we really don't know what many of those carvings represent. Researchers assume them to be female deities—perhaps fertility goddesses—but for all we know, some guy could have been carving a statue of his mate for their anniversary, or perhaps they were an early attempt at creating erotic art. It boggles the mind to think that one day in the distant future images of Madonna and Lindsay Lohan may line museum walls under the heading of "Ancient Goddess Images (circa 2,000 C.E.)."
