这枚圆顶形玛瑙印章带有悬挂孔,上面刻有盖约马尔德的图画,盖约马尔德是琐罗亚斯德教的原始人,即人类或人类的第一位祖先。这幅画描绘了他张开双臂和双腿,双手各握着一根象征性的权杖,下方是他忠实的狗黄耳朵。
在后来琐罗亚斯德教的创世文学中,盖约玛德(“凡人的生命”)是第一个人,也是人类的祖先。盖约玛德的灵魂与原始牛的灵魂一起生活了 3000 年,那时的创造只是精神性的。他的存在使想要入侵创造的邪恶灵魂阿里曼动弹不得。然后阿胡拉·马兹达创造了化身的盖约玛德——白色、灿烂,像太阳一样闪耀——并在他和原始牛体内放入了一颗源自火的种子,在所有创造物中,只有这颗种子起源于火。阿胡拉·马兹达赐予盖约玛德睡眠,让他暂时躲避阿里曼的猛烈攻击。但在 30 年的攻击之后,阿里曼摧毁了盖约玛德。他的身体变成了地球上的金属和矿物。黄金是他的种子,人类由此诞生。
