Path Through History by Ninja-G Rebirth
A carved vase stands behind me as a tribute to a goddess. Beside me sits a law code the first of it's kind a creation of king Hammurabi. Before me lays a Sphinx chillen in the moonlight shade of Hemoteps steps shaped like a pyramid.Right next to this stepped chilling space lie two steles for king Uruk and Narim-Sin. Over yonder standing tall is the structure of Nanna's ziggurat symbolizing a great mountain of trials for those who dare tread this "Path Through History." #poetic #gemini #surreal

The green object on the right is the "Stele of Hammurabi" it contains the first law code made by king Hammurabi. The markings are made up.

The blueish vase is the "Carved Vase to Inanna", Uruk. A dedication to the goddess Inanna which was found in temple ruins.

The pyramid is my version of Imhoteps stepped pyramid. Which was a burial tomb constructed in sections. The real pyramid only has five steps

The two stone objects [left: Stele of Uruk. Which was erected by the king Uruk to show his power. Could also be the Epic of Gilgemesh. {right: Stele of Narim-Sin. Which shows the religious and political power of king Narim-Sin.

The building is the Neo-sumerian, Nanna Ziggurat. The word Ziggurat means to build high. This structure referances a mountain.
