Image description

Early Dynastic III from Mesopotamia, Ur (modern Tell al-Muqayyar) This delicate chaplet adorned the forehead of a female attendant in the King's Grave in the royal cemetery. Since gold, silver, lapis, and carnelian are not found in Mesopotamia, their presence suggests trade beyond the Mesopotamian River valley.
