"The Royal Lion Hunt
Assyrian, about 645-635 BC
From Nineveh, North Palace,
Room C, panels 13-15

The king, with his high distinctive hat, races round the arena in his chariot, shooting arrows at a succession of lions; one arrow, in mid-air, follows a wounded lion. Meanwhile attendants with spears, in the kings chariot, ward off another wounded lion that is attacking from behind."
