a figure of Mithraic iconography.
Note!: The title of this image is incorrect. Zurvanism (Zurvanite Zoroastrianism) was iconoclastic, and the association that the source of this picture with Zurvanism is incorrect.
The source of this image (altreligion.about.com, see below) has mistakenly associated the image of the Mithraic figure with Zoroastrianism's/Zurvanism's Zurvan. The en:Wikipedia article on (Zoroastrian) Zurvan inadvertently propagated the error.
