The ancient pieces of art are interesting, but not for the reasons you think they are.

The cyclops in Greek mythology is thought to be based off of the bones of an elephant, which looks like a cyclops skull:

Most dragon legends (which are common throughout the world) are thought to be based on old dinosaur bones.

At that's kind of the thing: digging up dinosaur fossils aren't a new thing. People have been doing it for awhile, before they even knew what a dinosaur was. They don't even have to dig them up, because dinosaur fossils are often uncovered by rainfall, or simply while digging for some other project.

That one Hesoid vase depicting the battle of Troy is actually depicting a dinosaur SKULL, not an actually realistic dinosaur like your quote claims (the fact that it is a skull is pretty damn obvious).

The most fascinating thing you've pointed out is that certain peoples claim to have observed dinosaur life in recent times, as early as the 1940s. But this isn't evidence that dinosaurs are 6,000 years old. At best, it's evidence that some species of dinosaurs may still exist, which is more of a cryptozoology thing then a creationist thing, and something that has ABSOLUTELY NO scientific evidence, no evidence period beyond some eye witness accounts.

What is indisputable, proven scientific fact that you have yet to debunk because you can't:

Radiometric dating, which shows that dinosaurs died out around 65 million years

The universe is nearly 14 billion years old, as proven by the observance of background radiation. Another, simpler way of proving that the universe is WAY older then 6,000 years old: much of the starlight reaching the earth is millions of years old. We know the speed of light. You can't disprove that.
