Gypsum wall panel relief: depicting lion hunt: An elaborate table or altar, laid with a cloth, holds a bowl containing a leg of meat and a jaw, what may be a bunch of onions, and a smaller container. The king himself is pouring a libation, which the caption tells us is wine, over the bodies of four lions. Behind him stand attendants with fans and towels, his bodyguards, and grooms with the royal horses. From the North Palace of Ashurbanipal, Nineveh, Iraq, Room S. Neo-assyrian, 645-635 BCE. Inv. 124886.
