As abelhas associadas a figuras de outros animais ou de seres humanos, mostra Lya R. Dams (1978), aparecem em pinturas encontradas em vários locais arqueológicos do Levante Espanhol. Indica E. Ebling (Reallexikon) que Asmas-res-ha-ussur terá sido o introdutor da criação de abelhas em Babilónia. O autor de Historia Augusta informa que enxames de abelhas cobriam a estátua de Antonino Pio a anunciar a sua elevação a Imperador Romano. As abelhas constam de moedas grega e fenícias (II aC). O mel surge no Exodo (III, 89). Está representado num mosaico da casa de Dioniso em Paphos.
