Summary

Description
English: This statue comes from the Nabatean temple at Khirbet Tannur. Atargatis, the "Syrian Goddess" (Lucian, De Syria Dea) was a vegetation goddess, responsible for the fertility of the land, and perhaps the sea as well; her dolphin is a puzzling attribute, which appears on other representations, although not on this one. Here, the goddess emerges from a profusion of vines, fruits, and other vegetation. Her head is crowned by an eagle, symbol of the Edomite god, Qos (Taylor, p. 122).[1]
