Lyre Fragment, Bull Head

Iraq, 2450 BCE

Bull's head in sheet gold with lapis beard found in grave 789 of the Royal Cemetery at Ur. There is a great deal of detail in the bull’s eyes, snout, and the curls of its beard, which represents the power of the king as well as the god Shamash. It was originally affixed to the front of a wooden lyre, the decayed remains of which were somewhat apparent in the soil when excavated.

The earliest chariot-like vehicle that we see represented in art appears on the Standard of Ur, made in Sumeria around 2600 BCE. On the bottom panel of its “War” side (there’s also a “Peace” side), there are four-wheeled war-carts pulled by onagers, a kind of wild donkey.

Much more on the history of the chariot:

【 Shining Nikki CN+TW 】 Pavilion

Turbid water is just tears of darkness, but fire is the eyes of light.

The long thread of memory passes through death and eternal night, allowing the same protective will to resonate with each other.

The blue crescent moon, the ocean tide, the bottomless abyss.

The light dances among the waves like broken silver, accompanying the lonely soul that has been sleeping under the sea level for a long time, until that cluster of "fire" appears.

The sea water never extinguished the "fire".

It turns into a burning butterfly, cleansing away all filth and darkness.

It burns in the sea water and keeps watch for light in the eternal night.

Since then, the sharp edge of the blue crescent has torn the black tide's net,

The sparkling waves ripple on the sea, blurring the boundaries between sea and sky.

In just that brief moment, the waves and the rising sun, the tide and the flames...the long-separated souls finally reunited.

🌊🌊 Design Concept • Watching in the Abyss 🌊🌊

Arionus was born in chaos and unknown.

He is the ancestor of water who came from the sea and brought rain to the forest.

However, due to the power of the abyss in his body, he was not allowed to enter the clean and sacred "source" Only Hepheus, like a blazing fire, embraced all His filth and darkness.

This pure memory is woven into the skirt of "Watching in the Tide" that flows like broken silver, and under the crown of clear waves, He is a transparent and pure soul.

the sharp edge of the blue crescent tore through the net of the black tide, and the era of disorder and barbarity in the Sea of Eternal Night ended.

But only Anos knows that the real crisis is still spreading in more secret places. In the end, He decided to use his broken body as a seal to resist the undercurrent of the abyss.

He is not afraid of death, but at least before that, He wants to control his destiny in his own hands.

The surging undertide dyes "The Return of the Tide" a rich dark blue, but the gorgeous color of the skirt is still eye-catching.

This extremely gentle protective will will follow Him and shine brightly in the depths of the sea.

🌊🌊 Design Concept • Watching in the Abyss • Comic 🌊🌊

The abyss invaded Anos's body, but his tears turned into crystal-clear little creatures, like star lamps in the sky, lighting up the quiet sea.

The wandering elves are no longer confused, and the floating lives have gained their souls.

On the sea level with blurred boundaries, [Watching in the Abyss·Comic ] was born.

It contains the joy of rebuilding the underwater kingdom and the hope of ushering in a bright future.

It faces the full moon as brilliant as the rising sun, and the colorful semi-transparent light spots are reflected from the skirt and crown to everyone's sight.

That is probably the color of protection.
