Lions in Heraldry Around the World The lion historically roamed the African continent and parts of the Middle East and Western Asia. Yet, this majestic animal influenced many kingdoms outside of that region. The lion has appeared on English, Scottish, Norwegian, Indian, and Chinese sculptures, paintings, money, and heraldic crests to represent royalty or nobility. It most often represents the king himself, as the lion has several characteristics that a king should embody. Emperor Ashoka, ruler of India from 268-232 BCE, erected pillars with lion capitals across his very large empire. Some commemorated his visit to the locations they stood. The first use of the lion by English royalty was a seal with two lions passant used by King John in the 13th century.
