The Template:Lang figurine, also called the Lion-Human of Template:Lang, is a prehistoric ivory sculpture discovered in Hohlenstein-Stadel, a German cave in 1939. The German name, Template:Lang, meaning "lion-person" or "lion-human", is used most frequently because it was discovered and is exhibited in Germany.
