This photograph captures the intricate detail of an Achaemenid-era double-headed bull capitol. Originally perched atop massive columns, this artifact now rests at ground level, allowing for a closer view of its craftsmanship. It is preserved behind a glass enclosure to protect it from the elements and further damage. The stone carving showcases the powerful and symbolic nature of Achaemenid art, a hallmark of the ancient Persian Empire’s architectural grandeur found at Persepolis.
