there is a rock carving at Tassili in the Sahara which shows a man (with a dog's head) with a bow in his right hand, followed by a dog. What makes this look like on Orion depiction, apart from the sytance and the dog (canus major) is the curving line that starts from his left foot (the star Rigel). This is the constellation Eridanus, shown emerging from Orion's left foot on all early star maps.
This carbing is reproduced in the Larousse encyc of World Mythology p22
