This is a lion with a falcon head, also known as an eagle headed lion. It is a statue of a lion with a human face on its upper body and a falcon on its head. In the religious beliefs of ancient Egypt, this image may represent different deities or symbolic meanings. The Sphinx usually symbolizes power and authority, while the eagle head may be related to the sky, universe, or other mysterious aspects. Discovered in the temple of Ramses II in Abu Simbel, Egypt (Nubia), this is one of the heads of a pair. Currently housed in the British Museum in London.
