Archaeological image of a butterfly from Astrakhan

Thanks to Djon.
And which of them in Astrakhan could grow in the 9th century?

Nautilus?

Oh, and I thought it was someone who threw a tablet with Angry Birds in the past...

Good afternoon, gentlemen entomologists!
I have a highly professional question for you on your topic.
In the Astrakhan region (in the floodplain of the Buzan River, "the mouth of the Volga"), an object was accidentally found, probably dating back to the Middle Ages of the 7th-14th century, most likely the 9th century.
What kind of butterfly could it be?
If not in that section-sorry, I didn't understand, toli in the classification is necessary, toli in the image, in general, do not hit hard.
Sincerely,
Archaeologist A. (svaal)

In continuation of the theme of medieval images of animals. Here, for example, who is depicted?

You can test your intuition here

... in the Middle Ages-as you please. And to the question "what kind of butterfly is this", the author of this work would most likely spread his hands and clarify: "are they different?" I would write "stylized butterfly image".

  
I flew only with the tiger .

Or maybe a goblin?

Well, here-it's more like a flower, maybe even an iris. Or did the author of the piece say it was a butterfly?

If I remember correctly, Athens minted owls on its coins. Even now, one euro coins in Greece show a coin with an owl. The Greeks had beautiful coins with a high artistic style and this is not clear what and on what. The ceramics are lost, the image is taken out of context, and the impression of the work of a black archaeologist is created. How will you date an item without ceramics?

It seems to me that the image is definitely not a butterfly. Remember how the butterflies were spread out in the time of C. Linnaeus, and here is the perfect spread of the Middle Ages.Pin just forgot to draw Please Throw a coin close-up obverse and reverse. Entomologists are versatile people, so we are interested and are happy to help other sciences.
