Never ending beauty of Ur
The Ishtar Gate from Ancient Babylon (in its reconstructed state at the Berlin Museum) from the 6th century BCE, one of the great feats of world architecture and one of the original Seven Wonders. Nowhere to be found on Tumblr, which is sad, so I thought I’d rectify that.

An inscribed tablet (which mentions curses against anyone disturbing the tomb) found in ancient city of Nimrud.
