Pictured here (an object known to have been in Baghdad and to have been stolen during the looting of the National Museum of Iraq): Diorite statue of Entemena, enlarged detail of a back view.

Following excavations by the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology and the British Museum at the Royal Tombs of Ur in Mesopotamia (modern day Iraq) in the 1920s, half of the excavated material went to the National Museum of Iraq in Baghdad.
