The image of a bull with its horns raised high was often used as a symbol of protection and courage. This symbolism is still evident today in various forms of art, jewelry, and even religious practices. In some cultures, the horns of a bull were believed to possess magical properties, capable of warding off evil spirits and bringing good luck to those who possessed them. This belief led to the practice of wearing bull horns as amulets or incorporating them into elaborate headdresses and ceremonial attire."
