Some of the oldest cultures in the two river basins were born in the early days of primitive communes in 4000 BC. As an early civilization of Mesopotamia (the Greeks called the two river basins Mesopotamia, meaning "land between rivers"), it can be divided into three major cultural stages: El-Obeid, uruk and Gemdiet-Nase. These names are named after the region where the culture originated.

The Uluruk cultural period is the middle of the three major cultural periods, which is characterized by the development of pottery. During this period, many temples were built in uruk, including a tall altar made of raw bricks, which is said to be the foundation of a "white temple" (the so-called "white temple" is named after its white walls). This is where the head of this goddess was found. This marble goddess head may be a religious idol dedicated to sacrifice at that time. The eye socket of the head has no eyes, only two big holes. It is obviously inlaid with precious stones or other precious stones, and there is a deep groove between the eyebrows, which is reserved for inlaid brass or gold. As for the rest of the head, it may be made of wood. The face of this portrait is very beautiful. There must be other decorations on the head of the goddess.

Its founding date is estimated to be 3500 ~ 3000 BC. This stone statue is in the Baghdad Museum in Iraq.
