Ancient Assyrian Tree of Life



This image of the Assyrian Sacred Tree (circa 870 BCE) comes to us courtesy Barnaby Thieme from his thoughtful, wide-ranging blog Mesocosm.  Barnaby in his unique scholarly voice calls for interfaith and cross-cultural dialog in his own post titled More Fitting to be Friends - about possible influences of the Islamic Sufis on the European Arthurian legend and more.  Click on the image to see this one better.
