Work on a 7ft tall monument of a goat-headed demon destined for erection at the Oklahoma state Capitol is well underway.
New York-based Satanic Temple revealed the design in January, which depicts Satan as Baphomet sitting on a pentagram throne flanked by two children.
The proposed location would see the statue, set to be cast in bronze, placed adjacent to a Ten Commandments monument.
