EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from the Middle Elamite Period, dating back to approximately 1500-1100 BC. The helmet depicted in this image is adorned with divine figures and features a magnificent bird with outstretched wings at its peak. Crafted from bronze and embellished with gold foil over bitumen, this piece exemplifies the exquisite metalwork of ancient Persia. The central figure on the helmet is believed to represent either the Elamite water god Inshushinak or Napirisha, flanked by two female deities. Their regal presence suggests a connection to power and rank within society. The intricate carvings and overlay techniques used in creating this headgear demonstrate both skillful craftsmanship and artistic prowess. The use of feathers, silver, gold foil, and ornate decorative elements further enhance the beauty of this armor. It serves not only as protection for warriors but also as an expression of their status and affiliation with divinity. Now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, USA, this artifact offers us a glimpse into ancient Iranian culture during a pivotal period in history. Its preservation allows us to appreciate the rich heritage of Iran while marveling at its timeless artistry.
