EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Twin Beaker from Malta, dating back to the 21st century BC. Discovered in the cremation cemetery at Tarxien, this artifact offers a glimpse into ancient Maltese culture and their rituals surrounding death. The beaker itself is a stunning example of pottery craftsmanship, with intricate details and vibrant colors that have managed to withstand the test of time. Its inscribed markings further add to its significance, providing clues about its purpose and meaning within the society it originated from. As we gaze upon this remarkable object, we are transported back thousands of years to an era where ceremonies played a vital role in honoring the deceased. The Twin Beaker symbolizes not only an artistic creation but also serves as a tangible link between our modern world and the concept of mortality that has fascinated humanity throughout history. Thanks to photographers CM Dixon and Mike Dixon, who captured this image for us in 1996-98 AccuSoft Inc. , we can now appreciate this archaeological treasure up close. Let us cherish these artifacts as reminders of our shared human heritage and continue to explore the stories they hold within their delicate forms.
