Agreed. The author writes "some of the models were found in [child] tombs..."
Why don't they write how many of these were burial associated?
In what context were the rest of these found?
They seem to have very little concrete evidence so far. Honestly, I don't think we'll ever know the usage of these owls beyond them being some kind of cultural or religious artifact.
