Asian Carved Hide Wall Hanging

This piece absolutely mystifies me! it is so intricate and yet very sturdy. When I got it , it was rolled up and I opened and pressed it with weight for a few days. I believe it is Horse or cow hide it is quite thick and heavy. 

Both sides are beautiful but leather side shows more detail. I would like to have it mounted properly. The scene is of warriors in a chariot drawn by 2 horses with a flag blazing. One has a trident, the other a bow and arrow.
