Ancient Persian Art Auction, Featuring The Jay Gluck Collection of Ancient Persian Art, 7 Apr 2002 | ||
San Diego, CA: Malter-Westerfield Pub. Co., 2002 | ||
Abstract:
Collected by Jay and Sumi Gluck for over thirty years, the Gluck Collection of Persian antiquities goes back 7,000 years, to 5,000 BC. The Gluck Collection is one of the largest private collections of Persian art and handicrafts in the world containing some of the oldest Persian antiquities in existence. This collection, of several thousand items, includes objects from the Neolithic age, the Bronze and Iron ages, the Imperial & Achaemenid Ages and from the later Islamic Period of Persia. Some of the pieces are the sole extant objects of their kind in existence. Many pieces from the Gluck Collection have been housed, and made available to the public, for much of the last 20 years, in Persia House, Kobe, Japan. The building is thought to have been the residence of the Iranian Consul during the 1930's. More recently, as a result of rising interest in the Silk Road among people in Japan, part of the collection has been on display in Nara, the first capital of Japan, at the Nara Orient Kan Museum. The collection in now being made available to interested collectors, both private and public, and portions of it have now moved to, among other places, the Miho Museum, in Shiga prefecture, Japan. We are proud to offer this select group of pieces that span much of the time period of Persian history. | ||

Praetorians (2003) | ||
Pyro Studios, 2003 | ||
Abstract:
For Win98/2000/WinXP Marcus Crassius' greedy invasion of the Parthian empire provides a warmer sideshow in the sandswept deserts of Mesopotamia. Diplomacy is one route to taking classic cities such as Jerusalem, Tyre and Petra - the Sarmatians will swap a temple for peace, for example. Or you can just lead Crassius' forces in and wipe the lot out, as the man himself did before a Parthian general captured and executed him by pouring molten gold down his throat. Praetorians' missions are tightly structured, giving only just enough troops for the job, so whatever path you take, it's important to decide when and where engagements take place. Though the game sticks to the facts - Crassius' middle-eastern campaign is doomed whatever you do - as a subcommander, you'll get plenty of chances to claim glory along the way, with each battle having its own set of objectives that must be completed regardless of the big picture. The campaign, leaping between the two commanders and their theatres of operation, is thus like an epic movie. The Celts finally subdued, Caesar returns to Rome to battle his enemies in the Senate, and you take up the slack: cross the Rubicon and invade the homelands, battle the perfidious Pompey in Dalmatia, and then pursue him to Africa. So what if Ptolemy XIII murders him? You can fight the Egyptians as well before dashing back to Spain to polish off Pompey's allies. All in a day's work - if not for Caius Julius Caesar himself, then at least for the players who'll fill his boots 2,000 years later. | ||

"A Hoard of early Parthian drachms" (1971) | ||
Numismatic Chronicle, 1971, tome/ser. 7, vol. 11, p. 103-119. | ||
Abstract: An important study of a hoard of drachms found in Iran in 1968. "Prior to the appearance of the hoard, most had assumed, following E. T. Newell, that the Parthians had neither the means nor the resources to mint coins before the second quarter of the second century B.C." Olson. [Greek Letterforms, 1973, 39 fn 3]. The hoard was found between Gombad and Bujnurd in the northeast of Iran and contained some unprecedented types of Arsaces I and II; beside some 59 Parthian drachms which are examined and published, there is much more. The coins are attributed to the period before the eastern anabasis of Antiochus III which began in 209 B.C. | ||
