Facing the lion. Appliqué in form of a lion head on the Late Kushan pottery
Original language description
The ceramic - and particularly fine ware - production in Bactria / Tokharistan of the Kushan-Sasanian period shows typical characteristics both in morphological and decorative treatment that make it different from the preceding production of the Great Kushan period. In this study, I would like to shed some more light on the decoration of fine ware cups with a simple motif: the frontal depiction of a lion head / face. Sources of origin, symbolic meaning, spatial distribution and importance for dating of the given pottery group and related issues is addressed.
