The Lion and Sun (Persian: شیر و خورشید, pronounced: shir o khorshid) is one of the main emblems of Persian (Persia) and formerly was an element in Persian’s national flag until the 1979 Persian Revolution. The motif, which illustrates ancient and modern Persian traditions, became a popular symbol in Persian in the 12th century. The lion and sun symbol is based largely on astronomical and astrological configurations: the ancient sign of the sun in the house of Leo, which itself is traced back to Babylonian astrology and Near Eastern traditions.
