Exciting facts about the scene from Mesopotamia

In the ancient world of Mesopotamia, baskets played a central role in everyday life. They were usually woven from reeds or palm fronds and used for storing grain, fruits, or small tools. Children helped with the harvest from a young age by carrying these baskets to storage places or markets. Their tunics were made of linen, and leather sandals protected their feet from the hot desert sand.

Such scenes give you a small insight into family and work life over 4,000 years ago. Drawings on clay tablets and cuneiform script document exactly such everyday situations – often depicted on reliefs and seals. The coloring template makes this distant world tangible for you and gives you the opportunity to choose colors and moods yourself.
