Ram in a Thicket, Ur excavations (1900)
Summary
"The Ram Caught in a Thicket" "One of the two goat statuettes from the Great Death-pit"
Excavations at Ur, an ancient Sumerian city in modern-day Iraq, have revealed a wealth of information about the culture and history of the region. The most famous excavations at Ur were carried out by Sir Leonard Woolley in the 1920s and 1930s, which uncovered a royal cemetery and numerous artefacts dating back to the third millennium BC. The royal cemetery at Ur contained the tombs of several Sumerian kings and queens, as well as a treasure trove of valuable items such as jewellery, weapons and musical instruments. These discoveries have provided important insights into the religious beliefs, social structure and artistic achievements of the ancient Sumerians. In addition to the royal cemetery, excavations at Ur have uncovered the remains of a ziggurat, or stepped pyramid, dedicated to the Sumerian moon god Nanna. This monumental structure, together with the surrounding residential and administrative buildings, attests to the city's status as an important political and religious centre in ancient Mesopotamia. Excavations at Ur continue to yield new discoveries and shed light on the complex and sophisticated civilisation that once flourished in the region. The artefacts and architectural remains unearthed at the site have greatly enriched our understanding of the ancient Sumerians and their contribution to human history.
