介绍（中）	在萨珊王朝时代，许多精英房屋都装饰有灰泥浮雕和其他装饰。这个女性人物的小粘土碎片可能被用作家庭装饰品。由Ctesiphon探险队购买并归因于Ma'aridh I的房屋，这个陶瓷例子与Ma'aridh房屋中挖掘的舞者和音乐家的灰泥浮雕相似。 Ctesiphon市位于底格里斯河东岸，位于伊拉克现代巴格达以南20英里（32公里）处。它作为帕提亚人和萨珊人的首都繁荣了 800 多年，这是在七世纪伊斯兰征服之前统治古代近东的最后两个王朝。1928-29年，由德国东方学会（Deutsche Orient-Gesellschaft）赞助的探险队在Ctesiphon地区进行了系统的挖掘。大都会艺术博物馆和柏林国家博物馆在 1931-32 年间进行了一次为期一个季节的联合探险。进行了几次挖掘，包括在主宫殿（Taq-i Kisra），在Tell Dheb宫殿以南的一个小防御工事区，在Ma'aridh土丘上的多栋房屋，以及在一个名为um ez-Za'tir的小土丘上的其他房屋。
介绍（英）	During the Sasanian era many elite houses were richly decorated with stucco reliefs and other decoration. This small clay fragment of a female figure may have been used as a household decoration. Purchased by the Ctesiphon Expedition and attributed to the house at Ma’aridh I, this ceramic example finds parallels with the stucco reliefs of dancers and musicians excavated at the Ma’aridh houses. The city of Ctesiphon was located on the east bank of the Tigris River, 20 miles (32 km) south of modern Baghdad in Iraq. It flourished for more than 800 years as the capital of the Parthians and the Sasanians, the last two dynasties to rule the ancient Near East before the Islamic conquest in the seventh century. Systematic excavations in the Ctesiphon area were undertaken by an expedition in 1928–29 sponsored by the German Oriental Society (Deutsche Orient-Gesellschaft). The Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Staatliche Museen, Berlin, undertook a joint expedition for one season in 1931–32. Several excavations were conducted, including at the main palace (Taq-i Kisra), in a small fortified area south of the palace at Tell Dheheb, at multiple houses at the mounds of Ma’aridh, and at additional houses at a small mound called Umm ez-Za’tir.
