Running a website with millions of readers every month is expensive. Not only do we pay for our servers, but also for related services such as our content delivery network, Google Workspace, email, and much more. We would much rather spend this money on producing more free history content for the world. Thank you for your help!
This small pottery vessel was found at Tell Al-Namil (Arabic: تل النمل), Saladin province, Iraq. The rim and the surface of the vessel were painted and decorated with different shapes. Jemdet Nasr period, 3000-2900 BCE. On display at the Iraq Museum in Baghdad.
