From Wikipedia
The Shami Statue is the most important and iconic surviving work from the Parthian Empire, housed at the National Museum of Iran. The statue is almost completely preserved and depicts a Parthian Prince or nobleman. It was found by local peasants in Shami village, Khūzestān Province, when workers encountered the bronze statue while digging foundations for construction in 1935. Some scholars believe that the statue was originally made in Palmyra and later transferred to Susa, while others suggest that it was made in Susa.
