Limestone bull, possibly Larsa or Uruk, Iraq. Late Prehistoric period, 3300-3100 BCE. This stone figure was made in the late 4th millenium BCE, when cities were developing in southern Mesopotamia. Such sculptures may have had a ritual use within the temples. The artworks of this period very often showed domesticated animals. ANE, 116686
