Abstract

Representations of women in the Achaemenid Empire have not been studied extensively yet. One particular kind of image, that of a woman in Achaemenid dress holding a lotus and other object, although recognized as part of an empire wide Achaemenid iconography, seems to elude interpretation. This article looks into the context and role of the image, and the role played by lotus in gender definition.
