This modern replica, accurately representing the Sumerian god Enki, stands at 12x5x4 cm or approximately 4.72x1.97x1.57 inches. Crafted from a composition stone of limestone and quartzite, the statuette features an aged slate black patina and is mounted on a felt-based stand. Enki, revered as the 'Lord of the earth and water,' was a central figure in the pantheon of cities like Ur and Eridu. This sculpture would have served as a votive figure for the nobility, embodying Enki's domain over water and his associations with craftsmanship, intelligence, and the decrees known as 'MEs'. With the sacred number 40 and celestial representation by the planet Mercury, Enki's symbols included the goat and fish, later amalgamated into the Capricorn symbol. This replica is a fine homage to the god's historical reverence, designed to reflect the intricate details and profound symbolism associated with one of the most influential deities of ancient Mesopotamia. It offers a distinctive opportunity for enthusiasts to own a piece that captures the essence of Sumerian religious devotion.
