Bronze tiger from the collection of the Minneapolis Institute of Art, from 500-600 BCE.

From the object's description on artsmia.org:
'This tiger with socket clearly served as the base for an upright support of some sort. Treatment of certain details like the rope patterns around the eyes, on the socket and eyebrows, and fetlocks and the granulation pattern on the ears indicate a date around 500 b.c.'
