Carved gypsum sculpture of protective spirit facing left: a winged bull from a gateway in the citadel wall at Khorsabad, with panels showing a winged divine figure about to anoint with a 'cone' and magical fluid from a bucket. It is one of a pair, which were intended to keep evil from entering. Neo-Assyrian / 710BC-705BC Height: 403.86 centimetres Width: 198.12 centimetres Length: 486 centimetres Curator's comments A pair with 1850,1228.4. Part B belongs behind part A; part B changed from 118809B in 1968 after move from Assyrian. As at present arranged the panels are wrongly placed; they should be behind the bulls, facing the tail, not at the side, facing the bull's front. See Gadd, 'Stones of Assyria', p. 110, as to the original position. **3D Model Update and Optimized 11 / 05 / 2020** **Fixed : Holes / New Box / Lights and Optimized ** Source: Objaverse 1.0 / Sketchfab
