I think there ought to be a section, or an addition, that includes the camels role in art. Here is a short idea:

Use of camels in art

[edit]

The camel, which transported luxury goods, became a symbol for wealth and camel statues would adorn the graves of the rich during the Han period of Ancient China. [1] The practice peaked in the Tang period before fading away. The Mantle of Roger II, produced in 1133/1134, shows a mirrored image of a lion on the back of a camel. The piece is thought to represent the Christian rule over Sicily and North Africa, and the camels are bridled, suggesting domestication. [2] In Renaissance art, the camel represents the exotic and biblical.
