What appears to correspond
Each photograph shows a low, elongated animal form.
What differs or remains uncertain
The museum object on the other side of the comparison remains unidentified. The Lingjiatan weight and tomb number now have a second caption-level source, not an excavation report. Material, size, condition and reconstruction are not yet securely comparable.
Transmission check
Transmission not yet assessed The comparison is not yet identified or dated well enough to exclude ordinary transmission, later borrowing or an image-selection effect.

What would move this cluster forward?
Collected comparisons accumulate; they do not compound into proof. Each line still needs its own dated sequence.
Identify the unresolved museum object and obtain its collection record. Trace the Lingjiatan pig to an excavation publication for tomb 07M23. Check whether repairs or display angles change the apparent silhouette.
