Abstract

The present essay studies about the images of SPHINXES and HARPEYS and searches for the related definitions in the ANCIENT World. Then it propounds the presence of these symbols in the ART of ISLAMIC ERA and descriptive the related definitions in a descrive - analytice method. Further, it expresses expansion of astronomical activities as an effective factor in appearance of such symbols in 6th, 7th, 8th centuries (lunar calendar). SPHINXES are considered by the ANCIENT World as the protectors of the temples and even as gods. HARPEYS are creatures combined with the head of man and the body of bird which in the ANCIENT cultures take the soul of the deads to the other world. Such creatures appeared in the ISLAMIC ERA on the metal dishes and potteries, so that in 6th, 7th, 8th centuries, they were the most common images on the potteries. It is obvious that such symbols are closely related to the concepts of grace and fertilization in the ISLAMIC ERA. The expansion of astronomical activities in the 3rd and 4th centuries and later in Iran and writing the book: Constellations by Abdol Rahman Al-soufi, the way was paved for emergence of such creatures on the works of ART.
