    On a recent trip to the British Museum in London, I came across an artifact on display – an actual Pazuzu amulet very like the one Merrin unearths in the film. It is dated 800-500BC and, like in The Exorcist, was probably excavated in Northern Iraq.

    Check it out on this link http://www.britishmuseum.org/explore/highlights/highlight_objects/me/b/bronze_head_of_pazuzu.aspx
