| Phew, it's still a little small, but at least I can spot my old pal Friedrich Nietzsche, who went to the same boarding school as me Is there somewhere a list to check so we can see how many we collectively recognize? Otherwise it might not be worth the effort | |

| Thanks! Any particular importance of #116.. the Camel? I mean... is there an important camel in history? I believe... 12. Mexican Golden Eagle It represents a critical aspect of Mexican culture, pictured on Mexico's Coat of Arms. Read info here. 48. Bald Eagle It represents a critical aspect of the culture of the United States, pictured on USA's official heraldry. Read info here. So the items (even the table cloths!) may be of certain importance! On this roll... 2. Moses, Socrates, Plato or Aristotle 14. Stonehenge 18. Great Pyramid of Giza 21. Forbidden City 124. Television 125. Nuclear Explosion | |

| I think I forgot to label 2 more things... the 'balcony' actually looks like the Great Wall of China and where #122 is located (who btw I think is Genghis Khan by the way he sits) should be somewhere important too!
I will edit the number key soon. | |

| Napoleon's horse Marengo; a gray Arab captured after Waterloo. GREAT JOB! I had no idea it was a specific horse and that is was so famous! I guess we got two contenders for the spot. Marengo was the name of Napoleon's horse captured by the British at the Battle of of Waterloo. The horse outlived Napoleon by eight years ( ) and his skeleton is kept at the National Army Museum in London! Intendant, was one of Napoleon's horses too; mainly used for parades and reviews because of his calm, steady, and graceful nature during such ceremonies (SOURCE). I vote for Marengo, as it was portrait on the famous painting Napoleon Crossing the Alps by Jacques-Louis David seen below. What you guys say? | |

20. Osama bin Laden
#47 is NOT Confusious... he is #161... that is Confusious' classic pose. | |

Regarding the 13th Samurai (pun intended), I believe it could be. Date Masamune . He is quite famous, and here is a picture of him.Ah. Bollocks, and doublesorryness, for both my mistake and multiple postings. - Now that I see the new fresh and proper picture on page one. I can see that #13 is Genghis Kahn. No Japanese Samurai. Ohwell. | |

| 8. Santa Maria de la Inmaculada Concepción - Christopher Columbus' Flagship. Originally named La Gallega ("The Galician"), also referred as Marigalante ("Gallant Maria") and La Capitana or La Nao. Excellent find! As an observation, as it is posted on the introduction (large yellow fonts)... - Mordheimer wrote:
