Summary
[edit]DescriptionKul-e Farah III North (2983989078).jpg |
The North side of of the elamite rock relief said Kul-e Farah III. The relief is carved on an isolated rock at the South East of Izeh, ancient elamite city of Ayapir. It was discovered in the 19th century by the british orientalist traveller and archaeologist Austen Henry Layard, as many others at Izeh. The relief is the IIIrd of a serial of 6 carved in a little gorge, covering either isolated rocks and cliffs. This one dates of the 7-8th centuries BCE, as the others of this site. All 4 sides of this cubic rock are carved on the whole surface. The North side shows either a religious office or an audience scene, dominated by a central character, either a king or a high priest. Ranks of adoring devotes can be seen beside the main character. Scenes of religious sacrifice are carved on the other sides of the rock. City of Izeh, Khuzestan province, Iran, April 2008 |
