horns
The ram seen by Abraham at Moriah is caught by its horns in a bush. The bronze altar of the Dwelling has horns of a piece with it at its four corners. At the priests' consecration some of the bull's blood is put on those horns with the finger. The incense altar's horns are of a piece with it and overlaid with gold; once a year Aaron makes expiation on them.
