Archeologists uncover an 18 tonne lammasu – for the second time

By Eric O. Scott | November 11, 2023

Archeologists have uncovered a 2700 year old state of a lammasu, an Assyrian guardian deity, near modern Mosul, Iraq. But the story of how an artifact known to scholars since the 1800s was finally excavated shows how archeology and heritage must contend with war, looting, and political turmoil.

Tarot of the Week

Tarot of the Week

Deck: Golden Black Cat Tarot,by Helena de Almeida, published by AGM-Urania/Konigsfurt-Urania Verlog GmbH

Card: Ten (10) of Pentacles

This week, there is likely to be an emphasis on financial security, family, traditions, and the culture they are derived from. Awareness of the importance of honesty and respect within relationships and familial structures is also likely to be a focal point. It may also signal that a project or body of work has reached a successful completion.

Conversely, the potential for reconsidering what is valued, as well as the actual emotional, mental, and spiritual price(s) of continually pursuing financial gains and wealth. There also exists the possibility of financial loss, and insecurity as it applies to family, finances, and relationships.
