| Abstract | ||
| The Art of Sculpture is the most abundant art found in Mesopotamia at different ages, including the Akkadian era that is characterized by the emergence of a new art school known as the realistic school of sculpture, which began with the rising of Sargon Akkadi (2371-2315). This era was one of the shallowest ages of sculpture, perhaps because of the nondisclosure of the capital Akkad, as well as the state's exposure to destruction and eradication. Consequently, we have received only two models: King Sargon's head, which was found in Nineveh, representing the Bodily Sculpture. And also the Sargon Obelisk, which is three small pieces, representing the Noticeable Sculpture. Based on this, the study is divided into two axes: Bodily Sculpture and Noticeable Sculpture. | ||
