ram horn
Spiral sheep protrusion
A ram horn is the curved, spiraling horn of a male sheep, often used as a decorative motif or material for crafts.
In Jewish tradition, a ram's horn is the shofar—a ritual instrument blown during High Holy Days: The sound of the ram horn marked the start of Rosh Hashanah.
Ram horns appear in mythology and heraldry as symbols of strength and virility.
