Commentary for Avodah Zarah 81:2

ודכפרים מי איכא למ"ד לנוי קעבדי להו דכפרים ודאי למיפלחינהו עבדי להו

But is there anyone [who says that the images set up] in villages are made merely for ornamentation? Those in the villages are certainly made to be worshipped!

Daf Shevui to Avodah Zarah

How can the sages hold that statues in villages are there for ornamentation? Villages do not have the money to put up statues just for ornamentation. They are definitely worshipped.
