Sea-Lion Hybrid
This fantastical creature combines a lion’s body with fish-like scales and gills, merging terrestrial and aquatic traits. Depicted on the Gundestrup Cauldron (150 BC – 1 AD), it evokes themes of duality, power, and transformation. Such hybrids reflect Celtic spiritual cosmologies, possibly tied to the underworld or ritual rebirth.
