The bull is sacred and revered in many cultures. In Cyprus, archeologists have uncovered bull masks from real skulls worn in rites. Corresponding bull-masked terra cotta figurines show them in use. Neolithic bull horns sometimes decorated stone altars. And bull jewelry, such as this Cypriot artifact from the Met Museum, adorned the ancients.

Reproduction of a magnificent Cypriot gold pendant, a bullhead is decorated with tiny graduated spheres. The design dates to approximately 1400 BC. The pendant measures 1.25" tall, 1.25" wide, and 0.25" deep.
