I would also say that claiming it is “not an original” suggests that it’s a copy rather than not being the original carving.

They’re saying the head was replaced. Better phrasing would be that it is not in its original form.

Re-carved anyway, although I’d like to know what happened to all the original stone. You’d think we’d be able to find it. It’s a lot of stone based on that drawing.
