This is the picture of Atossa, daughter of great Cyrus ,whose mother was Mandana. Because at the time of Achaemenid Empire most of the marriages were for a cause, at first Atossa married Cambysess 2 and then Smerdis and then she became the wife of Darius 1. Their son was Xerxes who was one of the main kings of Achaemenid and was winner in Iran-Rom fights.
She is one of the instances of successful woman in Iran, not only because of her marriages but because of her great acts she did in Iran history. At those times were Arabs kill their daughters because of their sex, king of Iran consults with her wife before taking decisions.
