Interesting that all but #8 have faces with eyes on the body and not where the eyes should be.

Though #8 is also facing away, so who knows what kind of face the artist would have given that one.

Have any of the artists ever seen a snail, though?

Why do they draw snail eyes where there are no eyes? Were medieval people blind, or did they draw something they had never seen?
