Paul,
I've read all of the scholarship I can lay my hands on, and what I see is a lot of discussion based on the surviving literature which occasionally references the art where it supports the overall thesis, but no comprehensive study of the artistic representations.
My own foray in that area says that not only are there patterns, but significant ones that may be illuminating if we explore them.
Now I have to write the article... Good thing I'm going on vacation.
Have fun
Cole
