EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable moment in ancient history. The image showcases Queen Tuwarissa, or possibly a wet nurse, tenderly carrying her youngest son, Tuwarsais. This Neo-Hittite relief sculpture dates back to the 9th century BC and is housed at the Museum of Anatolian Civilisations in Ankara, Turkey. The queen's profile is beautifully depicted as she gracefully leads an animal, believed to be a goat. The inscription accompanying the relief suggests that Yariri (Araras), who served as regent from approximately 815 to 790 BC, may have been a eunuch entrusted with caring for his master's children following King Astiruwa's untimely death. The intricate details of this artwork showcase the skill and craftsmanship of Assyrian artists during this era. It offers us a glimpse into the lives of royalty and their nurturing roles within Hittite society. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing scene frozen in time, we are reminded of the timeless bond between mother and child transcending centuries. The love and care radiating from Queen Tuwarissa towards her young son encapsulate universal emotions that resonate with viewers even today. This photograph serves as both an artistic treasure and historical artifact, preserving the legacy of ancient civilizations for generations to come.
