EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from ancient times - the Seated figurine of Baal, the Canaanite God of war. Crafted between 1300-1200 BC in Megiddo, this plated gold masterpiece is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Middle East. The figurine depicts Baal seated majestically, exuding power and authority. Adorned with intricate details and embellishments, it reflects the skilled craftsmanship of its creators. The golden hue adds an aura of divinity to this deity, symbolizing his significance in Canaanite mythology. Megiddo, known for its historical importance as a strategic city in Western Asia's Levant region, serves as the birthplace for this extraordinary piece. Its discovery sheds light on the religious practices and beliefs prevalent during that era. As we delve into history through this image, we are transported back to an age where gods were revered and worshipped. Baal's presence evokes curiosity about how he was venerated by ancient civilizations and what role he played in their lives. Preserved at Rockefeller Archaeological Museum in Jerusalem, this photograph captures every detail with precision thanks to eZev Radovan's expertise behind the lens. Now out of copyright restrictions, this image allows us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also gain insights into our collective human past without any commercial intentions attached. Intriguingly seated with his distinctive hat atop his head, Baal continues to captivate viewers even after
