Ca. 600–400 BC. Scythian / Hellenistic. A well preserved short iron sword of the akinakes type (Greek '????????') with a pointed bevelled blade, bow-shaped guard, rectangular grip, and openwork pommel; custom-made stand included. The sword has been profesionally restored and conserved.The akinakes, a short straight sword, became very well known to fifth-century BC Greeks, who recognised it as 'the Persian sword' (Herodotus 7.54.2), and collected them as part of their war booty (Herodotus 9.80.2) — inventories show that a good number of akikanes swords were dedicated on the Athenian Acropolis as a votive offering to Athena (Miller 1997, 47). Akinakes swords can be identified on the reliefs at Persepolis, the capital of the Achaemenid Empire, where men in Persian dress can be seen wearing it thrust through the knot of their robes. Akinakes were also used by the Medes, Scythians, the Caspii, and later by the Greeks themselves. Akinakes were made most commonly of iron, but some examples survive in gold, which Herodotus (8.120) tells us were a standard royal gift: Xerxes, for instance, gave a gold akinakes to the Hellespont along with a gold phiale and a bowl (Herodotus 7.54.2).

Lot 41
Ca. 1368–1644 AD. Ming dynasty. An elaborate terracotta zodiac figure in a court dress or shenyi consisting of a long waistcoat tied at the waist over a purple dress with long flaring sleeves. The robe is dark purple with blue accents on the sleeves. The hands are folded in front of the chest. The figure is extremely detailed and beautifully glazed in turquoise and cobalt blue colours. The cloaked human body is standing frontal with the head of an animal from the Chinese zodiac, in this case, the horse. The Chinese zodiac is a method of counting years based on the Chinese lunar calendar which assigns every year with a representative animal in a repeating 12-year cycle. Each animal is also associated with a natural element in the Earthly Branch. The twelve Zodiacs are the rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog, and pig or boar. These correspond to the twelve Earthly Branches and are infrequently found in wealthy tombs of the elite and wealthy ancient Ming Chinese. The tradition of sculpting terracotta figurines into zodiac representations might have originated during the Han Dynasty. Normally zodiac figures from the Ming dynasty have human heads and they hold the zodiac emblem animal in their hands. The zodiac figures were often placed in a north-south direction in coffin chambers to represent the progress of time. People hoped that such an arrangement would encourage the god to time to guard the tomb. For a general overview of the art of the Ming Dynasty, see Department of Asian Art. (2000). "Ming Dynasty (1368-1644)"; In Heilbrunn Timeline of Art History. New York: The Metropolitan Museum of Art (http://www.metmuseum.org/toah/hd/ming/hd_ming.htm). Provenance: From the private collection of a Somerset gentleman; previously in an old British collection, formed before 2000 on the UK /European art markets. Size: L:200mm / W:85mm ; 430g
