介绍（中）	公元前六世纪，在居鲁士大帝的领导下，波斯人确立了自己最终从东欧和埃及延伸到印度的帝国的首脑地位。阿契美尼德时期在希腊和旧约作家的描述以及丰富的考古遗迹中得到了很好的记录。就像博物馆收藏的装饰有狮子前部的阿契美尼德金器一样，这个装饰品描绘了有翅膀的狮子怪物，但在这里展示了两种猖獗的生物。代替狮子的耳朵，他们有公牛的耳朵。角向后卷曲在尖刺的鬃毛上，狮子的脖子上覆盖着羽毛图案。尖锐的风格化机翼延伸到五个凸台中的两个，并作为设计的装饰宝贝。背面附有沉重的环，表明该装饰品戴在皮带上。狮子图案在不同类型的物体上的类似处理表明了这一时期的装饰惯例。
介绍（英）	In the sixth century B.C., under the leadership of Cyrus the Great, the Persians established themselves at the head of an empire that would eventually extend from eastern Europe and Egypt to India. The Achaemenid Period is well documented by the descriptions of Greek and Old Testament writers and by abundant archaeological remains. Like the Achaemenid gold vessel decorated with the forepart of a lion also in the Museum's collection, this ornament depicts the winged lion-monster but here two creatures are shown rampant. In place of the lion's ears they have those of a bull. Horns curl back over spiky manes and the lion's neck is covered with a feather pattern. Sharply stylized wings extend over two of the five bosses and serve as decorative balace for the design. Heavy rings attached to the back suggest that the ornament was worn on a leather belt. the similar treatment of the lion motif on different types of objects demonstrates decorative conventions of the period.
