That people in Mesopotamia should at so early a date have mastered the art of glaze and been able to use it with such skill and control is almost as amazing as the perfection of the sculpture itself. Antedating the Assyrian and late Babylonian glazing by many hundreds of years, one finds here a fully perfected technique where might be expected the stumblings of a beginner...
