Relief at Darius palace, royal bodyguard garment, sun disc.

The walls of Darius's palace at Susa were embellished with colorful reliefs made of glazed bricks on the Babylonian model. It is not certain which room (or rooms) of the palace with its audience hall (apadana) was decorated with representations of a procession of royal bodyguards, dressed in their splendid costumes.

This is located at Pergamon museum, Germany.
