Iraq is a country which is rich in history. The Iraq Museum's huge collection tells the epic story of human civilization, from the earliest settlements to the rise and fall of vast empires. We can say, the history of Iraq is the history of all humanity. One of the artifacts which I want to show to you is Cylinder Seals.
Cylinder Seals were invented around 3500 BC in the Near East, at the contemporary sites of Uruk in southern Mesopotamia. Other sources, date the earliest cylinder seals to a much earlier time, to the Late Neolithic period (7600-6000 BC), hundreds of years before the invention of writing.
At that time Cylinder Seals served as a mark of ownership of identifications.
