What's the name of the thing knocking at the door?

The scientific name is Pushou.

The first shop was a door ornament embedded in the gate to ring the bell. Because nature worships ancestors, paving the head has auspicious meaning of killing evil spirits. Most of them are animal heads, mostly tigers, lions, dragons, gluttons and other beasts. The face of an animal is covered with angry eyes and teeth, which brings a majestic atmosphere to the door and becomes a mascot in people's minds. It is a great creation of traditional art and an image carrier of traditional culture and religious culture to spread the head majestically and exclude all vision. In this form, it contains rich cultural content, condenses people's simple thoughts and feelings, has a strong appeal to people, and is an artistic heritage with China's traditional cultural value.
