Summerian King List

We went to The Ashmolean Museum today and we chose the Summerian King List because it has a lot of history behind it. The stone was made in 1800 B.C., and there's writing on the stone that talks about the rulers of Sumeria. It is in written in Summerian language, spoken  in southern Iraq between 3000- 2000 B.C. The King List is interesting and very old. It's a prism made of wood and has four sides with a rectangular shape. This stone is in a vertical position.
