The White Horse of Uffington is really a dog? Read the article here. LOL... gotta love a shit stirrer From the comments I have to say that, while stylised, the horses in these coins (if I located the right images online) bore little resemblance to the Uffington Horse... particularly in respect to the tail, which in the coin starts as a new rising arc, not, as in the Uffington Horse, continuing the curve from the spine. While I'm not sure the dog suggestion will prove to have much legs, I think it is a fair point that when images are stylised, it usually involves caricaturing existing features, not changing them.

" There’s no mention at all of the overlap between paganism and various forms of Satanism – or the much broader overlap with the far Right." not to mention the same overlaps within Christianity
