Scorpion people
Scorpion people have a human head and body but their lower half is like a bird with a scorpion's tail. Scorpion people served the sun god Shamash and were powerful protectors against demons. In the Epic of Gilgamesh, a terrifying scorpion-man and scorpion-woman guard the gate of the mountain where the sun rises. |
