Abstract
The author of the article presents the research of a Sasanid igem found in the Nizhnelubianskii cemetery of the Saltovo-Mayaki culture of the 8th-9th cc. The arrangement scheme consists of the motifs of the pair wings and a plant with three flowers. The author draws a conclusion that the Zoroastrian idea of the Axis mundi spread in the Sasanian art and marked by the all-seeds tree which is supported by the pair wings is a symbol of the victory, luck, wellness and divine protection.
