A lovely composition of this amazingly detailed and 'loving' carving from so very long ago. A Bravo Vote from me as well. ~V~

I'm afraid Nima means "Dam Project" (in Dezful and Shushtar)

actually it is a relief of Shapur, depicting his victory over Valerian the roman emperor, the guy kneeling infront of him is Valerian, they also captured some 40,000 roman soldiers and sent them to southern iran to work on a damn project....

I read about Rustam, I guess that is real historic figure.

May be it's surprising idea, but i like to have the scaffold here...

I think in these days "love of his people" was not negotiable ;)

This image seems to say..."once there was a great prince and he was loved by his people." V
