2500 BC: Maykop mound

An impressive golden bull was discovered in a large mound near Maykop in 1897.

Gold, 8 cm high, is located in State Hermitage Museum, St. Petersburg. Maikop culture, about 2500 BC

The rectangular burial chamber contained the skeleton of a man, probably a ruler, on which there were several magnificent necklaces and a conical tiara of gold hoops decorated with gold rosettes, similar to the finds of the late third millennium BC. e. from the city of Ur in southern Iraq.

Several silver tubes found in the tomb are believed to have been supports for a curtain canopy over the body or freestanding standards. Four of these hollow rods were once attached to this golden bull, its twin and two silver bulls.

The bull was cast using a smelting wax process, with a vertical hole passing through the center of the body to secure the silver tube. The sloping head is decorated with incised concentric circles between inwardly curved horns, and the incised lines also represent the mouth, nose, eyes, fur above the hooves and hair on the tail.

The style of the bull resembles the Mesopotamian sculpture of the third and early second millennium BC. e. Several other artifacts from the burial also use motifs often found in Sumerian and Elamite art.
