Sumerian Helmet in the University of Pennsylvania Museum, November 2009

Helmet
Electrotype
2550-2450 BCE
Ur, Iraq (PG755)
# 29-22-2
Woolley had a series of electrotype reproductions made of all of the gold objects from the Royal Cemetery. The originals of the pieces seen here are in the Iraq Museum, Baghdad. The bull's head belonged to an elaborately decorated lyre from PG1237. The helmet was discovered in an extremely lavish burial, PG755. Several objects in the tomb mention Meskalamdug. A cylinder seal of Meskalamdug, the king, was found in another royal tomb. There is disagreement over whether or not the burial in PG755 was the king of that name.
