Saint-Quantin-de-Rançanne - Saint-Quantin
The single nave church was erected within the 12th century. The church got damaged during the Wars of Religions, when the bell tower, that stood above the choir, was completely destroyed.
The facade has some extraordinary carvings. There are 23 roughly carved horse's heads. There are complex capitals - and above - a row of very fanciful corbels. I will uploud a few photos.
An exhibitionist displaying his anus. Is this the "moon"? If this is an early kind of "mooning", he would express disrespect.
At least two incidents are known from medieval times.
- In 1204 during the siege of Constantinople the Greeks exposed their bare buttocks to the Crusaders after they repulsed them from the walls.
- In 1346 during the Battle of Crécy Norman soldiers "exposed their backsides to the English archers and many of them paid a high price for doing so".

Whakapohane is the Māori practice of baring one's buttocks with the intent to offend. It symbolises the birthing act and renders the recipient noa ("base").
