This is a bas-relief sculpture of a mythological creature engraved on a stone tablet. The creature appears to have the muscular body of a lion, with prominent forelegs and hind legs. It has a large head with an expressive face, featuring a wide-open mouth that reveals sharp teeth, and eyes that have an intense, perhaps fierce gaze.

Two pairs of wings extend from the creature's back, intricately detailed with feather-like patterns, suggesting a capacity for flight. The wings frame the creature's body and appear powerful and well-defined. The creature's tail is thick and curls upwards, ending with a tuft that echoes the texture of the wings.

The stone's surface around the engraved figure contains traces of wear and age, indicating the artifact's ancient origins. The top right corner of the stone is broken, revealing a rough, uneven edge that contrasts with the smooth, deliberate carving of the creature.

This kind of imagery is characteristic of ancient Mesopotamian or Persian cultures, where mythological creatures were often depicted as guardians or symbols of power. The creature's intimidating presence combined with the mystique of its wings and the craftsmanship of the sculpture suggests it was likely intended as a protective figure or a representation of strength in the culture that created it.
