Nearly 4,000 years ago in Mesopotamia, an artist made this medicine pot, dedicated by a priest-physician "for the life of" King Sumu-El of Larsa. The dog was the sacred animal of Ninisina, goddess of health and medicine.

This artist *knew* dogs. Look at that face! 🥹 ❤️

Irresistible, @dale_jp’s excellent book, makes a great case for studying cuteness, from baby animals to Hello Kitty. But the concept may have a very dark side. (9/9)
