Such figure is a protective divinity as the androcephalic winged huma faced bulls that decorated the gate of all nations. These figures were inspired by the assyrian mythology, assimilated and fashioned by the persian, showing the genious persian synthesis of the various artistic movements and traditions coming from all the empires corners.
