Some things you can count on to never change and always be new again.

I wonder if anybody's found any ancient sculptures where one kind of bust was swapped onto another, er, another kind of bust. :p

Or further back: "Zog, why you paint other head on cave-wall of fertility goddess!?"

Ancient Roman statues were designed so the heads could be detached and switched, for eg when there was a new emperor on the throne.
