That creature in the carving may be a razorback boar, but the possibility of something else certainly is enticing.

I've also heard that in the ruins of ancient Babylon, statues and stone carvings have been found of dinosaur/sauropod like creatures with long necks and other features.

I wouldn't be surprised in ancient peoples discovered dinosaur fossils and used them as the basis for their drawings. That's probably where legends such as dragons came from.
