Product Description
Magnificent Trapezoidal Bronze Axe with a flat top, mounted on a matte black custom stand. Beautiful green patina, green and brown oxidation with limestone deposits, a sign of its authenticity. Luristan Ca. 2nd Millenium BCE.
Luristan (or Lorestan) is a province of western Iran in the Zagros Mountains near ancient Troy. This area was populated by migrant tribes in the 3rd and 4th millennium BC. An ancient people known as the Kassites, who had no Semitic or Indo-European language, originated in Luristan. In the 2nd millennium BC, the region was invaded and settled by the Iranian Medes, and then by the Persians a millennium later.
The rich history and culture of this region has resulted in fascinating artifacts, especially known for their high quality bronze, that would make a fine addition to any collection of ancient art and weapons.
