<p>[QUOTE="DonnaML, post: 4259407, member: 110350"]Roman bronze figures of eagles standing on the heads (or the entire bodies) of stags, rams, and other ungulates are quite common. Last year, I was in the market for a small Roman bronze figurine of an eagle to add to my antiquities collection, and considered buying a number of that type.
