4000-5000 Years old Stone Handbags of Iran



Already in Teheran I could see handled weights with lots of ornaments. They have the shape of handbags. One could think that they a weights, but they differ in shape and weight so that this explanation doesn’t seen feasible. It is unclear for which purpose they had been carved. They are dated 4000-5000 years ago.

The Tulsa Doom snake emblem in Conan the Barbarian seems to have been designed after the “handbags”, which can be seen in the Azerbeijan Museum of Tabriz.
