Jesus and most of the Apostles appear to be Caucasian in The Last Supper, as opposed to Semitic/Abrahamic.

Michelangelo depicts an uncircumcised David in his statue. (Yes I realize there is some minor controversy regarding this) The original David would have been circumcised.

The Renaissance was an amazing time filled with amazing artists but sometimes their knowledge of subject mater 1,500-2,500 years and 1,000 miles removed, proved lacking.
It's one thing to get skin tone and hair texture wrong, but feminine features are what they are, irrespective of ethnicity.

In the USA I've seen longhorn cattle saddled and rode. There are occasions where an american bison/buffalo is rode as well. I've never seen a cape buffalo rode. Elephants and sometimes ostrich are ridden.
I suppose that doesn't mean all individuals of a species are willing.

Hi PaulB. Would you be interested in another WJ Jeffery .450/.400 NE 3". It's an extractor model and in superb condition, cased as well. Made in 1908. The rifle is here in Texas.
