Their body, which includes legs, tail, back, stomach, is of a lion while the head and wings are of an eagle, with the exception of eagle talons as its front feet. Since medieval times, the lion was considered to be the king of the beast and eagle, as the king of birds.


Griffin was hence considered as majestically powerful and of great importance. This made them classically antique, and they were responsible for guarding treasures and priceless possessions.

Since then, the Griffin has become a symbol of the divine power and a guardian of the divine. As per the medieval lore, griffins mated for life, and if their partner dies, they would continue living their life alone and never search for another partner.

This is one reason that the church used griffins as their emblem to oppose remarriage. This mythical creature has been seen in movies like Harry Potter and The Chronicles of Narnia series.
