[edit] A possible contender for petrosomatoglyph footprint
When I was a youngster [1974] my family visited Sarajevo. At the location where Gavrilo Princip shot Archduke Ferdinand and precipitated the Great War in 1914 were a set of footprints clearly visible in a panel of asphalt set in the footpath. The remainder of the footpath had been resurfaced except for this square, and there was a plaque on the nearest wall explaining that these were GP's footprints formed while he loitered waiting to take a shot at the Archduke. Apart from the whole implausibility of it being his footprints and no one else's in that city, as a 14 year old it was mighty impressive.
I bring this up here because it may qualify as a petrosomatoglyph, although I'm happy if the keepers of the Petro... tradition deem it to not qualify. I also noted this on the Gavrilo Princip page of Wikipedia, asking if the footprints had survived the recent war, but have had no answer.
Otherwise, a really interesting article. More power to your typing fingers!60.242.50.195 (talk) 12:00, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
