    Minerva is a goddess from ancient Rome. She was the god of the mind, resourcefulness, the human mind and wisdom. As one of his objects, she had an owl. Minerva was a peace-loving god. Later she was also seen by the Romans as the goddess of art and peace, but also of war. Soldiers, artists and women often asked her for protection.

      Stunning :-D
      I think it is carved from soapstone rather than lava, first time I see that!
