The Image of the Ancients

The Image of the Ancients was the necklace worn by members of the Persian Order of the Ancients during the 5th century BCE.

The necklaces featured a distortion of the Faravahar, the national emblem of Persia, with a face at the bottom, likely worn by the members to signify their membership within the Order.[1]

During the Peloponnesian War the misthios Kassandra collected the necklaces from slain members and leaders of the Order in Makedonia, Achaia, and Messenia respectively.[1]

After collecting all 19 necklaces from the members of the Order in Greece, Kassandra handed them over to a blacksmith within Oikos of the Olympians in Kirrha, Phokis, to repair Amorges' personal weapon, the Sword of Kings.[2]
