The winged lion is a mythological creature that resembles a lion with bird-like wings. The winged lion is found in various forms especially in Ancient and Medieval civilizations.

 

There were different mythological adaptions for the winged lion:

 

Shedu or lamassu in Sumerian, Akkadian, and Sherdal in Persian mythology was depicted as a winged lion. He has often been depicted with a bull body instead of a lion body.

 

The first beast in the first vision of the biblical prophet Daniel resembled a winged lion.

The winged lion was the heraldic symbol of Mark the Evangelist.
