Battle Scene. Dimensions: H. 5 1/2 in. (14 cm)W. 7 3/16 in. (18.3 cm). Date: 13th century.This scene depicts a battle in which the central figure appears to be the only one who has not lost a limb. Severed heads, arms, and legs and a man who has lost his hand are arranged across the composition. The legs and tail of a downed horse are visible at the lower left. The sketchy drawing and thin wash used for the figures suggest that the image was produced in thirteenth-century Egypt. The curved swords are associated with "Saracens", as found in a thirteenth-century European illustration of a Crusader battle. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

Mantle ("The Paracas Textile") Nasca. Mantle ("The Paracas Textile"), 100-300 C.E. Cotton, camelid fiber, 24 5/8 × 58 11/16 in. (62.5 × 149 cm). This extraordinarily complex mantle, or cloak, is one of the most renowned Andean textiles in the world. It was most likely used as a ceremonial object. The ninety figures decorating the border, created by needle knitting, have been interpreted as a microcosm of life on Perus South Coast two thousand years ago, with a particular focus on agriculture. Many of the images illustrate native flora and fauna as well as cultivated plants. Costumed figures may represent humans impersonating gods and acting as intermediaries between the real and supernatural worlds. Severed human trophy heads are shown as germinating seeds, suggesting the practice of ritual sacrifice and the interconnected cycles of birth and death.

Akhenaten, known before the fifth year of his reign as Amenhotep IV, was an ancient Egyptian pharaoh of the 18th Dynasty who ruled for 17 years and died perhaps in 1336 BC or 1334 BC. He introduced the monotheistic belief in the Aten or Sun God.

This 1903 illustration shows a frieze of archers at Susa. Shown here is part of the relief frieze in colored glazed tile from the Audience Hall (known as the apadana) of the royal palace at Susa (in present-day Iran). The figures represent members of the powerful royal bodyguard of a Persian king around 400 B.C. , the time of Darius I, who invaded Greece and started what is known today as the Persian Wars (the Greeks being the victors). Darius I built the palace. This relief is now housed in the Louvre in Paris, France.
