Syria Presents Bas-Relief of Goddess Ishtar to United Nations
Caption Description
A replica of an 1800-year-old sculptural relief depicting Ishtar, the Babylonian and Syrian goddess of love and fertility, was presented to the United Nations today by Mowaffak Allaf, Permanent Representative of Syria. The Gift was accepted by Secretary-General Kurt Waldheim at a ceremony held in the second-floor corridor, where it has been installed on the wall. The reproduction in plaster shows Ishtar, also known as Ashtarut or Astarte, with an attendant and a dove. The original bas-relief was discovered a few years ago in Palmyra and is now on display at the national museum in Damascus. It is believed to date back to the first or second century A.D.
