(A tympanum at Gosmer in East Jutland has truly got its iconography mixed up,
for it is a glorious depiction of Terra Mater suckling lions - except that they are horned
like the Beast in the Book of Revelations. Two ?hares (Romanesque symbols of lasciviousness)
or foxes, dogs or wolves (also highly symbolic) attack her hair,
which is crowned by a possibly feline head. This is the Whore of Babylon.)

 

Horned figures are ubiquitous in ancient art. Cernunnos was a Celtic horned god.
The horned Pan was transformed into a devil or the devil...
