Glazed bricks depicting a Persian archer, dating back to around 510 BC, from the city of Susa in the Achaemenid Empire.
This glazed brick bas-relief style was perfected in Babylon, and even the Foundation Charter of the Susa palace states that the baked bricks at the palace were the work of the Babylonians.
