Shapur II

[edit]

Removed Shapur II as a category, since reference states it was done "perhaps during the reign of Shapur II" but "The identity of the subject of such representations, in relief or in the round, can often be determined by comparison of facial features and details of the crown with those of kings portrayed on Sasanian coins of the period. In this case, however, the crescent that decorates the crenellated crown and the striated orb that rises above it have no exact parallel." J.K Nakkila (talk) 12:52, 16 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
