Bronze statuette of a rider, Achaemenid, 5th-4th century BCE, a rare representation of a Persian horseman. He wears a short Iranian sword, an akinakes, known from Achaemenid art, particularly from reliefs at Persepolis. The use of trousers is Median, or Parthian of the third to second century and makes it difficult to date the figurine. ANE,117760
