Description

Explore a unique scholarly study of Bakhtiari lion tombstones through this academic work from The Anthropology of Persianate Societies series. This book examines the intersection of anthropology, religion, history, and popular culture by focusing on zoomorphic sculptures in a tribal society from southwest Iran. While lions have long served as symbols of power, rulership, and religious leadership in Iranian history and myth, they are often overlooked in favor of court traditions. This volume fills a significant gap in existing research by analyzing the role of these stone lions in popular culture and funerary practices. It provides a detailed look at how these sculptures function as guardians and religious symbols within the Bakhtiari community. This text is an essential resource for those interested in Middle Eastern art history, tribal anthropology, and the study of zoomorphic sculpture in religious contexts.
