Was there ever a physical brazen bull discovered?
Have read various accounts of it being used but nothing about a physical relic being discovered/unearthed.

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE BRAZEN BULL: The last account of the brazen bull was in 147 BC when Rome conquered Athens. (Please see the first website below). DESCRIPTION OF THE BRAZEN BULL:
Perillos of Athens thought up the idea of the brazen bull (a chamber to cook people alive until ash and their bones were all that remained, and the acoustics converted human screaming into sounds similar to bull noises). Phalaris of Sicily built the bull. Emperor Hadrian later roasted to death St. Eustace with Eustace's wife and kids.

The golden calf was fashioned of wood, with only a thin coating of gold. It wasn't made to endure. The golden calf may have been destroyed at the same time that Moses destroyed the original tablets, containing the Ten Commandments, and initiated the bloody, civil war that resulted in the deaths of some 35,000 of the idolaters.

There are descriptions, like that of Arimilianus about 147 BCE. But, no, I do not recall any being discovered. But, they were made of bronze & the ancient countries used bronze for money & weapons. Besides, the Catholic Church does not want such relics to exist.

Yes... he had huge balls!Did you read the bible?
Exodus 32: 20 He took the calf that they had made, burned it with fire, ground it to powder, scattered it on the water, and made the Israelites drink it.
