There're many references in this subject. Lilith was the Anti-Eve, so, she too was a "mother of all living beings," in a sense. Besides the sphinx, and the Greek sirens, the details in her shape recall the different degrees of evolution: fish, bird, human being, angel. Her bracelet, of course, shows the Edenic Serpent.
She is a very bad goddess in the myth!
ReplyDeleteIn this drawing she looks like the sphinx, I mean half woman and half animal.
