The broad shaft of this axe head is embellished with four projecting lion heads. For a related example with boar heads, see no. 193 in H. Mahboubian, Art of Ancient Iran: Copper and Bronze. The type is related to a well-known class of axe heads featuring a splayed flat blade; see p. 189 in O.W. Muscarella, Bronze and Iron: Ancient Near Eastern Artifacts in The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
