Fine polymorphic ceremonial axe with a dragon's... - Lot 212 - Vermot et Associés
Fine polymorphic ceremonial axe with a dragon's head and a raptor on the handle, perhaps alluding to the funerary towers at the top of which the body of the deceased was placed, with the body delivered to the vultures. The two linked objects perhaps symbolizing death and resurrection, and by the object itself the power of the monarch. Louristan. Circa VIIès B.C. L :11cm.
