Dagon

The Dagon bas-relief from Nimrud, discovered by Austen Henry Layard in 1845/7. Dagon is shown "with the fish's head as a cap and the body of the fish depending over his shoulders, his legs those of a man, in his left hand holding a richly decorated bag, and his right hand upraised, as if in the act of presenting the mystic Assyrian fir-cone (British Museum, Nos. 29 and 30)."
