Above the text is an image of Ningirsu's temple floor plan, what seems very modern, and there are drawings of entrances like in many modern public buildings in the modern era. The picture is a part of the statue, what portraits the Gudea, the ruler of Sumer from the 2144-2124BC. This king has probably given his name to Judah or Judea is probably one version of his name.
When we are thinking about this floor plan, what ruler Gudea keeps his hands, we must realize that this building might have marked entrances, that the people find, what they were looking for. In fact, Gudea had many skills, and he is portrayed as an architect, and there are two possibilities, why this man was mentioned as an architect. First is that Gudea might be worked as the protector of the building site of this temple, and gave financial support and workers for that temple. Or maybe he self was really an architect.
I don't know how those Mesopotamian rulers act or how they were selected, did they have professions like an architect, and were they separated from other people? Or did they walk with ordinary people, and talked with them? I mean did those rulers do something by themselves, or did they just giving orders for some work, and then the people did, what the king wanted.
And were the habit in Mesopotamia that when the ruler ordered the building from some architect, the work was made to his name, and was to the place of the name of the architect written in those cases the name of the king or the name of the person, who ordered the work? I mean that were those Mesopotamian architects actually signed their work themselves or were that work signed to the customer or the person, who accepted the work?
But when we are looking at this floor plan, there are of course many theories about this statue or inscription. One of the most interesting thing, what is connected to this little ornament, what was on the hands of the statue, what was positioned on the entrance of the temple was that it actually portraits the ancient microprocessor.
This theory is about a series of ancient aliens, and there is no physical evidence of that thing. But when we are thinking about that form, we might see the shape of the microchip in it, and the persons, who believe that thing are arguing this theory, that the floor plan is too worthless to portrayed in the hands of the ruler of Mesopotamia or Southern Mesopotamia.
