EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, published in the Illustrated London News in May 1939, offers a glimpse into the rich archaeological history of Syria through the discovery of the earliest known carved heads unearthed at Tell Brak. The photograph, taken during excavations at the site, showcases five intricately carved heads, one of which is believed to represent a god, goddess, or worshipper. The other four heads, along with two limestone mace heads and a mosaic of clay cones, add to the intrigue and mystery of this ancient civilization. Tell Brak, located in northeastern Syria, has long been a site of great interest to archaeologists due to its historical significance and the wealth of artifacts uncovered there. The carved heads, made from various materials including limestone, provide valuable insights into the artistic and religious practices of the people who inhabited the area thousands of years ago. The Illustrated London News, a renowned British publication, reported on the excavations at Tell Brak, providing the world with a first look at these remarkable discoveries. The image, with its meticulous attention to detail, not only captures the beauty and intricacy of the carved heads but also serves as a testament to the enduring allure of ancient civilizations and the role of archaeology in uncovering their secrets.
