Lamassu Replica Plaster 12cm x 12cm
 
The Lamassu is an ancient Assyrian gate guardian, with a human head, bull's body, lion's feet and tail, and an eagle's wings. The use of these four animals is also repeated in the Old Testament and New Testament Scriptures when referring to the Cherubim, the guardians of God's throne. This is an important symbol in Assyrian Mesopotamian culture.
