W. Ceram. Translated from the German by Richard and Clara Winston. DESCRIPTION: Hardback with Dust Jacket: 279 pages. Publisher: Knopf; 1956) ISBN: 0880295937. The Secret of the Hittites" returns to the startling panorama of the author's first book. Gods, Graves, and Scholars" in the continued examination of the most ancient world known to man. Since the publication of C. W. Ceram's famous first work, a new discovery of enormous significance transformed the perception of ancient history. The darkest archaeological riddle of the Orient is on the verge of an ultimate and improbable resolution. And this with dramatic suddenness in the space of a few momentous years. The mysterious ruins discovered in central Turkey in 1834 were perplexing. Yet no one was willing to ascribe them to the Hittites, a people given scant acknowledgement in the Bible and dismissed as a minor Syrian tribe. It was not until 1880 that a hero of archaeology advanced the dynamic theory that there had once been a mighty Hittite Empire stretching from the Black Sea to Damascus. By 1910, only archaeologists and historians had begun to gain a faint and fragile knowledge of its lost history. Furthermore. Only in the years since 1946 has there been any hope of reading the fantastic Hittite hieroglyphic inscriptions, and only recently has anyone actually done so. Finally, almost twenty centuries after Christ, we know that twenty centuries before Christ the Indo-European Hittites descended into Asia Minor. We may now establish a third great empire beside the Babylon of Hammurabi and the Egypt of Ramses II read the first fragments of a profound unknown literature, of which Mr. Ceram provides stirring excerpts.

ANCIENT LURISTAN BRONZE STANDARD FINIAL, 1st MILLENNIUM BC, WITH STAND, RARE
Luristan Bronze Standard Finial with Stand. Thick Patina with Earthen Residue Caspian Sea Area. Ca. 1st Millennium BC A cast bronze finial depicting a- Master of the Animals- from the epic of Gilgamesh, having an upper stylized central anthropomorphic figure holding back a feline in either arm, thus mastering them. A lower standing figure and a central bearded head flanked by two bird heads. 8.25" Tall(with stand 14.25 inches tall) description: A high quality finial or standard top. Cast in the form of a tube which is partly anthropomorphic and partly theriomorphic, and which has a creature on either side, not unlike the later Roman Janus-headed figures. The creature depicted has the stylized face of a human or- more likely- of a god, with an elongated nose, large ears and large round eyes; it is, as often, impossible to tell whether ... moreit is a male or female creature(see Moorey 1971, p. 153-154) On either side of the figure we see the gaping mouth of a predator or a demonic creature, the throat of which the figure is gripping with its hands. Additional animal heads can be seen on the torso and near the waist, and birds heads are projecting from the necks of the other creatures. The lower part of the body of the figure seems to be that of an animal, with crooked legs resting on what could be the stylized head of another animal. The whole object depicts a scene of long-standing significance in ancient Near Eastern art. A scene which has often be called(confusingly, see Moorey 1971, p.154) the"Master of the Animals" In ancient times such objects would have been joined to a standard. A pole or other support. In this case it is supported by a tapering bell-shaped stand, which may or may not be belonging. It is not known with certainty how such standards were used. But attention has been drawn to the fact that this type of object has only been found in graves, which may be significant. culture: Luristan dating: Circa 9th-7th century B.C. dimensions: Height 8.25" inches(with stand 14.25 inches tall) LI
