Ancient Western Asiatic Stone Palette Disc, Circa 2nd Millennium BCE

Item Details

Description

This ancient stone palette hails from Western Asiatic regions and dates back to the 2nd millennium BCE, showcasing the rich cultural heritage and artistic expression of the era. The compact design, with a diameter of 6.5 cm, indicates its use for personal cosmetics or small-scale grinding purposes. The front of the palette features an intricately carved star-like geometric pattern, a testament to the craftsmanship and aesthetic principles prevalent in ancient Western Asian societies. The reverse side bears witness to its age and utilitarian function, with noticeable depressions and wear. The stone's granular composition has withstood the passage of time, offering modern collectors a tangible connection to the past. This piece not only represents the functional aspects of daily life in ancient times but also embodies the artistic spirit and ingenuity of its creators. Its discovery offers a unique glimpse into the material culture of a bygone era, making it a valuable acquisition for collectors and historians alike.
