*A magical talismanic device worn either as a pendent or attached to clothing.
Khyung Ngonpo, a tutelary deity from the Zhang Zhung Meri cycle of Tantra.
This well-worn pendant cast in thick bronze shows the Khyung Ngonpo (or the Blue [King] of Birds), a Bon deity that merged into the later Garuda deity imported from India. The figure would have had three bird faces (before heavy ritual wear), two horns on its crowned head, wings dramatically outstretched and a long strings of jewels held in the beak.
