Rolling Stones: Looking at Ancient Mesopotamian Cylinder Seals

This virtual tour will explore the museum's interactive website of cylinder seals from ancient Mesopotamia. These miniature masterpieces are among the smallest works ever produced by sculptors. Sidney Babcock, Jeannette and Jonathan Rosen Curator and Department Head, Ancient Near Eastern Seals and Tablets, will first give an overview of the Morgan’s world renowned collection of seals and learn about their significance in history and art then he will show you how to use the museum's website to get a upclose perspective of the collection.

    We need to step back and appreciate the amazing level of skill and technical ingenuity of these ancient people. From the massively monumental stone works seen all over the world to these miniature artistic renderings in the negative. What were the tools, implements and technologies they employed, that baffle us to this day? That is the true wonder!

    These artifact were taken from the place and put in Museums many nations lost there artifacts they were stolen in wars and then bombed the library at Alexandra was destroyed by Vandals from Italy by Rome because ancient people like today do not want other culture to have history that is how empires claim lands lets hope all stolen artifacts are returned and compensation ,make money from selling tickets many indiginous culture sold their artifacts too and now they are being wiped out if we want to learn we go to that country and see their artifacts ,sanctions on Iran and many countries.

( as a government seal !? ) . NOT how far "each tile & stone of the dispaly cabinet that it now resides in, traveled & time to carve each one " ... the floor & cabinets have NOTHING to do with showing how sexually diverted this city is ...

    I’ve been a musician for 20 years and a stone mason for 10 years. I fell in love with masonry when it dawned on me that they are the oldest living artworks on the planet, which clearly served a massive purpose for our ancestors. I believe that they understood sonic levitation, it’s my life’s purpose to understand the link between vibration and lifting/cutting/transportation of massive stones.

    I have to say I am glad weathly people have such interest in art and history to help preserve it. Famous painting/art works are well cared for. I am not saying this justifies looted or stolen works. I only mean if a cataclysm happens it is wise to have some portion of cultural artifacts stored widely. I don't advocate people pilfer Egyptian artifacts, rather that more investment aids nations in preservation and storage and display, worldwide. Many nations lack resources for archaeology and some countries have had historic sites or monuments attacked. It seems inequtable, yet not all can afford to take care of artifacts beyond an average individual's personal art collection. It all needs to be accessible by the public and researchers and museums do a grand job of it. Private weathly collectors, dedecated collectors, donors and public visitors help make all of it possible. With NFTs hopefully more people can get skin in art game while encouraging more secure platforms.

It’s a much deeper problem than just hoarding tech which shows our child like nature in the first place. Would you want to share your one of a kind vintage celestial boat and crystal tablet signal library’s and maps showing where more goodies are. We can only hope whoever is hiding these types of hidden histories are studying and preserving it for the few who feel the magnetic calling to the truth. Look at how Egypt has turned out would it really be better if these things are kept slightly hidden to preserve and respect these things. Hopefully all this secrecy is in the name of posterity.

    Would you believe the ancient Giza pyramids were debunked in the 1950s to be man made using the surrounding materials as like a concrete solution..?? This was actually proven by Dr Barsoum of Drexel University in around 2006 using an electon microscope.. Written and published first by Harvard in 1950 and you are only now hearing about it almost 72yrs later.. Web search Drexel University ancient pyramids and see for yourself..

    The thing is not only the carving or sculpting of each seal is considerable achievement you have to create the seal to be concave and proportional scale everything, hard enough to work with rock and to do it scraped down so you have a curved impressions on the wet clay you rolling into

    You buy them 🤷 the same way with manuscripts back in the 1920s you could literally go to a monastery and it was having the equivalent of a garage sale to fund itself. is it right that it ended up all here ?probably not but you can't have a buyer without a seller.

All artifact from Africa are stolen. Priceless large items from former Ottoman Empire are stolen, during Iraq and Syria war many items got stolen. If 20% were purchased, 80% is stolen

    23:34 It looks more like the 3rd eye. But I noticed in the other scrolls they seem to outline the eyes and make them very large, this picture only shows one large "normal" eye. It does look like a jester hat but I think that's because we have a cognitive bias as we've seen jester hats like this before. The brain is a pattern machine and it's referring back to something with a similar shape in your subconscious and, seemingly, conscious memory.
