Although the bowl has been studied by many scholars, such as E. Porada and I. Winter and others, the need for conducting an iconographic analysis still persists. The present paper attempts to analyze the iconography and symbolism of the artistic elements of the Hasanlu gold bowl in the context of culture and religion interactions. The comparison of the Hasanlu gold bowl and some excavated artifacts from the Armenian Highlands suggests that the artistic composition of the bowl is a reflection of certain astrological and mythological ideas associated with constellations.
