Mesopotamian Steatite Animal Motif Amulet (3000-2000 BC)

Item Details

Description

This ancient Mesopotamian amulet, shaped in the form of an animal motif, is finely crafted from steatite and measures approximately 1.57x0.79x0.39 inches (4x2x1 cm). The amulet’s small size and detailed craftsmanship suggest it was likely used for personal adornment or for spiritual protection, consistent with the practices of the time. Its creation from steatite, a material chosen for its durability and ease of carving, allows for the intricate design work that remains visible today. This artifact provides a direct connection to the religious and daily life of early Mesopotamian civilization, offering a tangible piece of history to any ancient art collection.
