Inspiration for lion statue?
[edit]Does anyone know the source of artistic inspiration for putting the globe under the lion's paw? The article says it comes from the coat-of-arms for the Netherlands, but there is no globe there--and it looks exactly like the (male) dragon on a traditional Chinese gateway/entrance.

Dodgy backstory anent the knoll
[edit]Going to delete the following until a citation is found. Also, latter bit of sentence seems somewhat irrelevent and bemuddling.
"The Mound's shape is that of a tumulus of the Belgae, whom Julius Caesar called the bravest of the Gallic tribes"
The 'Lion's Mound' celebrates victory over the 'Lion of Naples'
[edit]Has this happenstance been worthy of any mention by historians and others? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7D:411:1600:226:8FF:FEDC:FD74 (talk) 09:17, 23 July 2016 (UTC)
