The 17 essays gathered in this festschrift celebrate the scholarship of Bruno Jacobs. While the range of topics in these essays is extensive, most relate to the Achaemenid world. They represent the diversity of Achaemenid studies as a discipline that Bruno Jacobs enriched with his many contributions and sparkling ideas. Some papers move beyond the Achaemenid period, notably the contribution on Parthian and Elymaean countermarks (S.R. Hauser), and acknowledge the breadth of Bruno Jacob's research interests, which extend from Greece to eastern Iran, span the Mediterranean Bronze Age to the Roman period, and concern the disciplines of history, archaeology, art history, religion, and Iranology. Among others, M.C. Root examines "Medes and Iranian identity in the Achaemenid social imaginary" as represented in the Persepolis Apadana, while J. Wiesehofer focusses on "Greek exiles in the Achaemenid Empire" and Chr. J. Tuplin on "The place of Cyropaedia in Xenophon's oeuvre". The "winged symbol in Persepolitan glyptic" is debated by M.B. Garrison and the roles of gold and wine in Herodotus' depiction of the Persians by R. Bichler and K. Ruffing.
