Abstract:
In this letter, a part of a Sassanian relief that is historically of great importance has been investigated and introduced; the significance of this motif is due to the short period of the reign of this historical personality over Iran during the Sassanid era. This bas-relief belongs to Hormuz I (273-272), the Sassanid ruler; there are little historical information and consciousness of his short reign period. By examining first-order documents like bas-reliefs or coins and putting these findings together, we can understand many of the mysteries and unspoken truths of that age that have been forgotten in the mist of time, and thus explain more clearly the events of that short period for researchers and scholars.
