The Ta Prohm Temple carving at the Angkor Wat complex in Cambodia is not likely a dinosaur. There are just too many things wrong about that notion. I notice that the images you posted tend to be from religious websites. Why no images from natural history websites? So what do you think the image represents, and why?
I told you, I googled "Dinosaurs drawing ancient civilizations" got many results. I think I have seen stuff like that in museums as well.
Are you saying it's all circumstantial and sensationalism ?

Of course there are museums that display such historical artifacts like that. I don't know of any claiming them as evidence that dinos and humans coexisted though. The Ta Prohm carving is unique, in that there is nothing else like it found anywhere else in the entire Angkor Wat complex, which is spread out over an enormous area in northern Cambodia. As large as the complex is, one would think there'd be a few others around. Anyway, you didn't answer the question. What do you think the image represents and why? Do you think it represents a dinosaur? And if so, what kind?

^ Here is an area where some art history may come in useful (and i will conceded that there may not be many of them!)
I see some worshiped animals drawn out of proportion in piety. Probably some extinct animals we don't even know about and perhaps some mythical monsters.
