EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - a ring inscribed in Hittite hieroglyphic script, belonging to the Great Prince. Crafted from exquisite gold, this artifact measures 4.6x1.4 cm and is currently housed at the Ashmolean Museum, University of Oxford in the UK. The Hittite Kingdom, which thrived between approximately 1650 and 1200 BC in Anatolia, left behind an extraordinary legacy that continues to fascinate archaeologists and historians alike. This ring serves as a tangible link to their ancient civilization. Adorned with intricate engravings depicting a majestic lion and other symbolic motifs, this archaeological treasure offers valuable insights into the religious beliefs and cultural practices of the Hittites. The presence of winged deities on the ring suggests their association with celestial powers or divine protection. As a signet jewelry piece, it likely held great significance for its owner - perhaps serving as both an emblem of authority and a means of authentication for important documents or correspondence. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' meticulous preservation efforts, we are fortunate enough to have access to such stunning visual records from our prehistoric past. Let us appreciate this photograph not only for its aesthetic beauty but also for its ability to transport us back in time, allowing us glimpses into civilizations long gone but never forgotten.
