The figure depicts a minor deity of Mesopotamia with a human body and an eagle's head. In one hand he holds a pine cone, in the other a vessel with clean water. The Assyrians believed that he accompanied a person in everyday life and protected from diseases and evil forces. It was depicted on the reliefs in profile, but I decided to make a symmetrical drawing full face, in the background - a pattern of signs of Sumero-Akkadian writing.
