Two Persian Seal Impressions of a Lion
Pictured here are Persian seal impressions of lions on two jar handles. The lion was seen in ancient Persia as a symbol of royalty, power, and heroic triumph. A lion can be seen among the reliefs carved on the walls of Darius' palace at Persepolis. A large group of official seal impressions on jar handles were excavated in Jerusalem dating from the time when Judea was a Persian province known as Yehud Medinata.
