One such spirit was a being with the body of a bull and head of a human, and sometimes the wings of an eagle, called a Lamassu, which was a supernatural spirit, sometimes called a demon or genie, who served to protect the gods as well as the important human structures.
The oldest monumental sculptures are about 10-14 feet (3.05-4.27 meters) tall and they are made of alabaster. The most recognizable difference between the older Lamassu and the ones from a later period is the form of their body.
So how exactly did one get a Lamassu to protect their dwelling? The strongest evidence we have for this comes from the Neo-Assyrian and Achaemenid empires. In both places, the palace of the king was often guarded with a pair of massive Lamassu, generally carved from single blocks of stone.
Photo: Author. Under the reign of two great Assyrian kings known as Ashurnasirpal II and Sargon II they both established prominent capitals a century apart with a common inclusion of a hybrid mythological guardian creature known as the Lamassu.
Lamassu frequently appear in Mesopotamian art and mythology. The first recorded Lamassu comes from circa 3,000 BC. Other names for Lamassu are Lumasi, Alad, and Shedu. Sometimes a Lamassu is portrayed as a female deity, but usually it is presented with a more masculine head.
The most famous colossal statues of Lamassu have been excavated at the sites of the Assyrian capitals established by King Assurnasirpal II (reigned 883 – 859 BCE) and King Sargon II (reigned 721 – 705 BCE). The Assyrians envisioned a protective spirit that was part bull and part human (and sometimes part eagle).
Currently, representations of Lamassu are parts of collections in the British Museum in London, Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, and The Oriental Institute in Chicago. During the operation of the British army in Iraq and Iran in 1942-1943, the British even adopted Lamassu as their symbol.
