Description:

Stolas, described as the Great Prince of the Underworld, is depicted here as a crowned owl with long legs one would more readily expect to see on a heron. When he assumes the shape of a man and shows himself to an exorcist, he teaches astronomy as well as the properties of plants and the value of gems. He has twenty-six legions under his command.
