Ziwiye hoard
The Ziwiye hoard is a treasure hoard containing gold, silver, and ivory objects, included a few Luristan pieces, that was serendipitously uncovered on the south shore of Lake Urmia in Kordestan in 1947. These objects provide a definite link between the Iranian plateau and the Scythian artforms known as the "animal style".
