Young Blonde Girl Outside With A Donkey

• In Hindu Mythology a donkey (in sanskrit) gardbha is vahana (vehicle) of God Kalaratr.
Greek mythology includes the story of King Midas who judged against Apollo in favor of Pan during a musical contest, and had his ears changed to those of a donkey as punishment.
• The ass was a symbol of the Greek god Dionysus, particularly in relationship to his companion, Silenus.
The most common Greek word for ass appears roughly 100 times in the Biblical text. In the Gospels, Jesus rides a donkey into Jerusalem (Mark 11:1 in which colt refers to a donkey colt).
