Comment: ALT1 is fun, but you might rightly reject it since it relies on a reconstruction, put forth by Lerat, of the statuette as once holding a serpent and grapes. To my knowledge nobody has rejected this reconstruction (Mahéo and Deonna explicitly concur) but it is just a reconstruction.

date, length, hook, close paraphrase check, qpq checks out. Image free on Commons. ALT1 would require a bit of rewording, something on the lines of "seems to have lost" etc. --Soman (talk) 22:09, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

Edited ALT1 to reflect this. Thanks! Tenpop421 (talk) 23:30, 9 November 2024 (UTC)
