EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a cylindrical seal made of black marble from Mesopotamia, dating back to 2300 BC. The seal bears the name of the divine Sharkali-Sharri (also known as Shakalisharri), who was the King of Agade during that time. Adorned with intricate carvings, this ancient artifact depicts heroes watering buffalo adosses. Displayed at the Louvre Museum in Paris, France, this mesmerizing piece offers a glimpse into the rich history and civilization of Mesopotamia. It serves as a testament to their advanced artistry and craftsmanship. The image captures not only the beauty of this archaeological treasure but also highlights its significance in understanding Iraqi culture and heritage. As an emblematic symbol from Arab civilization in the Middle East, it represents an era long gone yet preserved through such remarkable artifacts.
