Description: Sumerian Cuneiform Stone Cone - King Urukagina Ancient Near East Gallery, Louvre Museum, Paris, France. This is the exactly same object as AO 3278 (with exactly the same horizontal fracture lines in particular), except that the characters are perfectly clear in this one. Probably a restoration (removal of accretions) or possibly an improved copy of the original object in the Louvre database?
