Enheduanna, high priestess of the Mesopotamian moon god, is the earliest named author in history. Her poems, written in the Sumerian language around 2300 B.C., often explore her devotion to the goddesses, especially those of love and warfare. A new exhibition at the Morgan Library displays many of Enheduanna’s poems alongside ancient Mesopotamian artwork that was inspired or made by women. Highlights of the show include a vessel fragment carved with images of a goddess and Queen Puabi’s preserved funerary jewels (gold chokers, lunate earrings, lapis lazuli beads), preserved for centuries in her tomb. —Jensen Davis
