[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 396330, member: 2844"]Just a little note. I didn't see a Chinese Sun God. I had never seen it before, and frankly it gives me the creeps (sorry Nathan:sorry:), so it is not an item I would look into (or at) too much. But as far as I am concerned the monkey could be either pseudo-esoteric European or Asian. I just suggested a possible representation of Sun Wukong, Chinese Monkey God, because Hanuman had been mentioned. If there were to be an Asian monkey God connection at all, that is. Sun is the first part of the name Sun Wukong.;) Ah well, Sun Wukong did give Hunting/i need help a lead to another yellow monkey. Although the true identity still hasn't been revealed.... Btw, I am leaning towards pseudo-esoteric European Singerie. French perhaps? But I'd rather not look at it too much.:nailbiting:[/QUOTE]
