The griffin is a legendary creature with the body, tail and hind legs of a lion; the head and wings of an eagle; and sometimes an eagle's talons as front legs. Because the lion was traditionally considered the king of beasts and the eagle the king of birds, in the Middle Ages the griffin was considered a particularly powerful and majestic creature. Since classical antiquity, griffins were known to guard priceless treasures and possessions.
