I wrote an extensive article about this and also in general about ancient statues that display impossible physiques for a natural.
But they didn't have PEDS back then, it's still strange that these sculptures of statues made these physical specimen even though nobody looked that way back then.
Why would they regard it as aesthetic etc, when nobody looked like that?
Interesting indeed.
Maybe they had "visitors" / timetravellers / reptilians / Isons, that tried to blend in but didn't really manage to get an authentic physiques.
