The Tell Asmar Hoard (dated Early Dynastic I-II, c. 2900–2550 BC) are a collection of twelve statues unearthed in 1933 at Eshnunna, Iraq.

Material: Gypsum.

Purpose: Believed to represent worshippers or deities, placed in temples as votive offerings.

Features: Large eyes inlaid with shell and black limestone, clasped hands in a gesture of prayer, and stylized hair and beard.

Significance: The Tell Asmar Hoard offers a unique glimpse into the religious practices and artistic style of early Mesopotamian civilizations.

If that 2nd statue looks familiar…I believe it’s because those of us in the r/reallyshittycopper group decided it’s Ea-Nasir probably looked like.
