Cretan History

 Myths of Crete

According to experts in the history of Crete, and Minoan culture, this plate shows a man balancing on the back of a bull, what if they are wrong?

The plate could be depicting the bull tossing the man over his head, and the "balancing" is just the man stretching his arms. Depiction of a scene depends on how you view the article unless you have proof that cannot be disputed.

All I see is a man on a bull, whether he's balancing or being thrown I will leave up to your perception of the scene.
