The Golden Goat, or Ram Caught in a Thicket
gold, silver, lapis lazuli, copper, shell, red limestone and bitumen
Because of a lucky roll of the ancient dice, this small goat was found face up in the dirt.
Another, almost identical, was found on its side.
Only because he had two distinct sides was the archaeologist Wooley
able to accurately put together the hundreds of fragments.
2600 B.C. and quite amazing.
