    Was it ever represented on coins (perhaps Provincial Roman) ?

    The suovetaurilia was an ancient Roman sacrifice in which a pig, a sheep, and a bull were sacrificed.

    Well it could be... like a turducken .....ya take a steer shove in a pig...then a lamb....Some mint jelly .
    Ya leave the wool on the lamb so instead of a pig in a blanket ya got a blanket in a pig.... insert the pig in the steer, roast about 2 days . Sort of taste like a fuzzy bacon burger:cow:
