Archaeologists in Luoyang, China, dug up 5 chariots and 12 horse skeletons from a 2,500-year-old tomb. The photos over at National Geographic are fantastic, but can someone explain to me why the skeletons of the horses are flat? Link

They had flat horse breed pedigree in the old times, before they abused cinching and made them round.

They are flat because they're from IKEA, you have to assemble them with the little allen wrench. It's the new Hürsee line.

This looks like a sand sculpture rather than an archeological dig.
