The three-horned Bull of Avrigney is a 1st century #bronze #statue representing the Celto-Roman god Tarvos trigaranus, discovered in 1756 in Avrigney-Virey #hautesaone . In the 1980s, the mayor of #besançon offered a cast of this bonze to the town of Avrigney-Virey to symbolize the return of this bull to the village of its origins. The town chose this #bull as its coat of arms. #celtic apotropaic #divinity widespread in the #french 🇫🇷🇪🇺 #swiss Alpine and Jura arc, we know about thirty representations of this tricornu #animal, in particular in #arlay , #chateaurenaud , in La Pisseure, as well as in #switzerland🇨🇭 in #martigny . The Sequans worshiped the urus or the bison as a tutelary and protective deity. #horn #archaeology #symbol #gods #roman #empire 🌟👁️ #alpes #jura #vesontio #doubs #spiritual #franchecomte 🍁🌺🇫🇷 #connectingminds #louvre #avrigney (à Musée des Beaux-Arts et d'Archéologie de Besançon) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQbgxzwgFut/?utm_medium=tumblr

These massive stone structures called Broches were unseen in continental Europe and most of the British Isles. Built sometime during the Bronze age, Broches were unique to northern Scotland. Their creators were either of Celtic or Nordic background.
