Abstract

Urartians left some pieces of evidence of their domination in North West of Iran. Among them are noteworthy metal objects, sometimes with the name of the Urartian king. Some Urartian discs of horse harnesses, sometimes inscribed, are found as well. A similar object exists in Eastern Azarbaijan Museum with the inscription of Argišti I. The name of the king’s father is not written, but epigraphically it is attributed to Argišti I.
