Owls appear in mythologies around the world. The Zuni People revere an owl as the Night Grandfather, one who watches over us. The Greeks of old believed owls had an inner light. They were often depicted in art and coinage of ancient Athens. The goddess of wisdom and domestic crafts Athena had an owl at her side, a symbol of strategic thinking. Evalena Boone is a great carver of Owls, this time offered in a stunning orthoceras fossil. The reverse side of this approximately 2 1/4" tall, 1 3/4" wide and 1/2" deep raptor has fossil remnants that resemble tiny crescent moons, how apropos. Etched tufts, watchful turquoise eyes and plumage are more features of this wise friend.
