    This pair of guardian lions were found buried in Sausal Crk in Oakland about 25 yrs ago. I think they are really cool. They are small - under a foot long and made of Terracotta w/ several layers of old paint on them. i'd love to know more about them if anyone knows. thanks!

      You must have a really big yard Cultcha
      Where do you keep all of these things?!

      These are really neat, buried in a creek? Wow...
      I wish I knew what they were, do they look really old?

      they look very old stillwater, but i don't know whether they were made to look so old or not. their style looks kind of 1820 to 1840ish.
