Perforated plaque made of a bituminous stone showing Dudu, high priest of Ningirsu in the reign of Entemena, prince of Lagaš. The plaque is divided into four unequal sections. To the right, a large figure leaning on what appears to be a long staff and labelled “Dudu” occupies the height of two registers. The the left of this figure, is the lion-headed eagle, symbol of the god Ningirsu, below which in a separate register is a calf, lying down. The lower register spans the entire width of the plaque and is decorated with a plait-like motif. A dedicatory inscription runs over the body of the calf, reading: "For Ningirsu of the Eninnu, Dudu, priest of Ningirsu ... brought [this material] and fashioned it as a mace stand”.
