Also the Greeks had a real syncretic influence on the art over in northern India/Pakistan & Afghanistan as they find with these 1rst century statues of the Greco-Buddha style ...but wait Buddha was a myth & stole everything from Christians according to you?

Then how did these statues get made in 1rst & 2nd centuries AD then? Alexander founded many cities in India, btw, to some effect. The Greek style of natural realism in sculpture is unmistakable, we see Art itself, part of cultural exchange is a clear means of tracing History. (along with carbon dating which we know you hate so much)

The Buddha, in Greco-Buddhist style, 1st–2nd century AD, Gandhara (Modern Pakistan). Tokyo National Museum.
