Abstract
A unique moulded lamp was recovered at the 'Temple of the Winged Lions' by the American Expedition to Petra. It displays the signs of the zodiac running clockwise round the filler hole. Apparently beginning with the sign for Scorpio, the regular order of zodiac representations was not followed. A female bust (a goddess?) is shown on the handle, and a walking cock, with a schematized plant, is shown next to the wick hole. This is only the second representation of the zodiac known in Nabataean iconography. The other example surrounds the bust of the 'Vegetation Goddess' from Khirbet et-Tannur.
