Description

This comprehensive scholarly work examines stone lion sculptures created by the Bakhtiari people of south-western Iran, bringing together anthropology, religion, popular culture and historical analysis. The book focuses on funerary lion tombstones that have remained largely unstudied by art historians, exploring how lions functioned as symbols of rulership, power and religious leadership within tribal society. By moving beyond traditional court art scholarship, this volume illuminates the significant role of lions in popular religious culture and everyday life among the Bakhtiari, offering new insights into zoomorphic sculpture and its meanings within Persian tribal communities. Published by Sean Kingston Publishing as part of The Anthropology of Persianate Societies series, this work represents an important contribution to understanding how symbolic animal forms shaped belief systems and identity in tribal contexts.

Explores how lions functioned as guardians and representations of power within Bakhtiari culture and everyday religious practice.
