This gypsum alabaster stela from Uruk is carved with the goddess Lama and dated to the Kassite period (1307-1282 BCE). She wears a horned headdress, a sign of her divine status, her hair is pulled back in a bun, and she places her hands in front of her mouth in a gesture of prayer. She is an intermediary between humans and higher-ranking gods and goddesses. The inscription, in Sumerian, dedicates the statue to the goddess Inanna "for the life" of the Kassite king Nazi-Maruttash and puts a curse on anyone who would harm the stela. The twin stela is in the Baghdad Museum.
