Near Eastern Green Stone Bull Amulet Circa 1st millennium BC This green stone amulet takes the form of a bull, rendered in exquisite detail. The bull is depicted reclining, with its legs folded beneath its body and a prominent dewlap hanging from its neck. Its head is held up, gazing forward with a sense of regal dignity. The amulet's perforation through the back suggests its use as a protective talisman or ornament.
