EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient history, capturing the essence of a bygone era. The image features a majestic lion holding a Hurrian foundation tablet, believed to have belonged to King Tish-atal of Urkesh and Nawar around 2150 BC. The intricate craftsmanship is evident in this bronze and limestone creation by the Hurrian civilization from the 22nd century BC. Currently housed at the Louvre Museum in Paris, France, this artifact offers us a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Syria. The foundation tablet itself is an impressive stone carving that symbolizes power and authority. It represents not only the reign of King Tish-atal but also serves as evidence of his connection with Urkesh and Nawar during ancient times. As we gaze upon this sculpture, we are transported back to antiquity, where lions were revered for their strength and regal presence. This statue embodies both grace and ferocity, reminding us of nature's raw beauty. Through this photograph, we can appreciate the artistry that thrived during the Bronze Age. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and creativity throughout history. Let us cherish these remnants from our past as they offer valuable insights into civilizations long gone but never forgotten.
