Emma Elias: We Love Mesopotamia
19th century, after 7th century BC original
This object is a modern version of the Flood Tablet,
a cuneiform-inscribed clay tablet which is an account of
the deluge featured in the Epic
of Gilgamesh. It was not
cast from an ancient tablet but rather from a 19th
century interpretation based on multiple ancient
fragments.
Assyriologist Paul Haupt made the modern tablet in clay,
basing its size and shape on an example held in the
British Museum and reconstructed from several fragments.
The original was part of the Library of
Ashurbanipal
(r. ca. 669-631 B.C.) at his palace in the Assyrian capital,
Nineveh, in northern Iraq.

look fresh! This is a reminder that
Earth is very old and things change,
