APKALLU from Nimrud, ancient Mesopotamia
(north-west palace, room Z, 875-860 BC)
This figure, a man with wings like an angel, is a protective spirit, one of a pair which guarded an entrance into the private quarters of the king. He carries a goat and a giant ear of corn, possibly symbolic of fertility, though their precise significance is uncertain. He wears a kilt with long tassels hanging from it, indicating his semidivine status.
