Gilgamesh, mesopotamian cuneiform clay tablet necklace in sterling silver

The "Gilgamesh" necklace offers a captivating journey into the ancient civilization of Mesopotamia and the legendary epic of the king-hero Gilgamesh.

This faithful reproduction of a Mesopotamian ceramic tablet transports us through time, immersing us in the mysteries of cuneiform writing, one of the earliest known forms of writing by humanity. The six lines of Neo-Assyrian pictograms engraved on this tablet tell us an epic story, that of Gilgamesh, the legendary ruler of the city of Uruk and god of the underworld.

Discovered during archaeological excavations at Kouyunjik in Iraq, this tablet, dated between 950 and 612 BCE, is a precious treasure of human history. It is housed in the British Museum in London, bearing witness to the grandeur and cultural richness of ancient Mesopotamia.

Gilgamesh embodies the concept of the "king-hero," a character both powerful and courageous, whose legendary adventures have been immortalized on several tablets scattered throughout the Near East. His story, one of the earliest known literary works, has fascinated and inspired for millennia, demonstrating the ingenuity and creativity of the human mind.

This necklace, beyond being a mere piece of jewelry, is a tangible link to our distant past, an invitation to explore the treasures of Mesopotamian civilization and discover the epic tales that have shaped our understanding of the world.
