Minoan Bull-leaper

The Minoan bull leaper is a bronze group of a bull and leaper in the British Museum. It is the only known largely complete three-dimensional sculpture depicting Minoan bull-leaping. Although bull leaping certainly took place in Crete at this time, the leap depicted is practically impossible and it has therefore been speculated that the sculpture may be an exaggerated depiction.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Minoan bull leaper )〕 This speculation has been backed up by the testaments of modern-day bull leapers from France and Spain.
==Description==

The group was cast in a single mould using the lost-wax casting technique. The group's homogeneity was demonstrated by analysing the composition of the bronze of bull and leaper: both contain about 96% copper and 1.5% tin, with 1% zinc. The small amount of tin in the alloy would have made it difficult for the bronze to fill the mould, resulting in the missing lower legs of the leaper, and probably the arms.〔 Stylistically, the group is coherent, since the arched back of the leaper mirrors the flying gallop posture of the bull.
