The Guennol Lioness [ˈɡwɛnɔl] is a 5,000-year-old Mesopotamian statue allegedly found near Baghdad, Iraq. Depicting a muscular anthropomorphic leonine-human, it sold for $57.2 million at Sotheby's auction house on December 5, 2007. The sculpture had been acquired by a private collector, Alastair Bradley Martin, in 1948 from the collection of Joseph Brummer, and had been on display at Brooklyn Museum of Art in New York City from that time to its sale in 2007. It is called "Guennol" after the Welsh name for "Martin", the name of the collector. In 1950 Edith Porada described it as a lioness "because of the feminine curves of her lower body and the absence of male organs" while conceding the possibility "that the figure represented a sexless creature".

  • Die Guennol-Löwin ist eine 8,26 Zentimeter große proto-elamitische Kalkstein-Statuette, geschaffen ca. 3000 v. Chr. Das Stück wurde etwa 1930 bei Bagdad, möglicherweise im Susa-Tempel von Tell Agreb, ausgegraben. Das ist bemerkenswert, da die Proto-Elamiter und Elamiter eher im heutigen Westiran lebten. Der Name ist in zweierlei Hinsicht missverständlich, Guennol ist nicht der Fundort, sondern die walisische Übersetzung des Namens Martin, sie gehörte nämlich lange dem Sammler Alastair Bradley Martin. Das dargestellte Fabelwesen ist kein Löwe, sondern eine Art Dämon mit weiblichem Löwenkopf. (de)
