Notice the strikingly Oriental
Features of these carvings,including the beards on the faces.
Native Americans did not grow hair on their faces, but Oriental
people from China do. According to legend, a large group of artists
were sent from China by the First Emperor to a land across the
ocean in the East which was rumored to have a secret to eternal
life. The expedition never returned to China. As you will see
