Jordan's Ancient Sculpture Revealed
The Jordanian artifact brought from the Australian National Museum is a carved stone tablet dating back approximately 12,000 years BC, making it the oldest large sculpture in the world. The Jordanian Department of Antiquities, in collaboration with embassies and diplomatic channels, facilitated its retrieval. It was transported to Jordan during King Abdullah II's official visit. The carvings depict geometric shapes, possibly inspired by the local environment, although some parts have been damaged due to natural conditions. Jordan is currently working on assembling the three fragments for the museum. The restoration process emphasizes international cooperation in protecting cultural heritage and returning it to its homeland.
