Moroni

If you have ever seen a Mormon temple, chances are you have seen the golden statue that adorns most of the steeples of these beautiful buildings. The statue is known as the angel Moroni. The male figure is dressed in a robe and typically (there are different versions on different temples) carries a golden book in one hand and blows a long golden trumpet in the other.
