Summary

Description

A double-headed eagle relief, 13th-century (Seljuk/Ayyubid period) architectural fragment found at Konya (now in Ince Minare Museum). It has also been suggested that the double-headed eagle may have been used as "personal insignia" by sultan Kayqubad I (r. 1220–1237).[1]

This particular design has come to be seen as "symbol of Konya"[2] and is closlely associated with Konya's role as historical Seljuq capital. "The double eagle in the city's coat of arms is a symbol of the Seljuk reign a period crucial for Konya's self-perception until today."[3] A re-drawing of the same design is used as an official emblem by the municipality[4]

An independent redrawing is used in the logo of Selçuk University, Konya, Turkey.
