Abstract
The rock carving at Guyum is known since the early 20 th century but did not receive full attention yet. Situated to the north of Shiraz, it can be attrib- uted to the reign of the Sasanian king Bahram II. The panel depicts the standing king Bahram II in full, in a venerating position with bent forefi nger and holding a sword with his left hand. A detailed discussion is presented as well as several previously unpublished photographs.
