Not only is the text of verse 9 repeated in verse 10 in this quote but the reference is certainly incorrect. Does "King 2 9-10" refer to "1 Kings" or "2 Kings" or chapter 2 of either? Here is KJV from 2 Kings ch12 v8-10
12:012:008 And the priests consented to receive no more money of the people, neither to repair the breaches of the house.
12:012:009 But Jehoiada the priest took a chest, and bored a hole in the lid of it, and set it beside the altar, on the right side as one cometh into the house of the LORD: and the priests that kept the door put therein all the money that was brought into the house of the LORD.
12:012:010 And it was so, when they saw that there was much money in the chest, that the king's scribe and the high priest came up, and they put up in bags, and told the money that was found in the house of the LORD.
How is this relevant anyway? Is there a hole on the chest? Top for collections, bottom for pole? —Preceding unsigned comment added by MikeYates (talk • contribs) 10:19, 6 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

But we are not even close to being done.
Unless someone objects, I am going to replace Image:Standard_of_ur1.jpg with Image:Standard of Ur - peace side.jpg. Dar-Ape 17:08, 2 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

I am guessing with some conviction that inlay was made of shell and not hell, so am making the change. If I am wrong, don't hesitate...Amity150 03:57, 23 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

"War" is one of the earliest representations of a Sumerian army, engaged in what is believed to be a border skirmish and its aftermath. The "War" panel shows the king in the middle of the top register, standing taller than any other figure, with his head projecting out of the frame to emphasize his supreme status – a device also used on the other panel. He stands in front of his bodyguard and a four-wheeled chariot, drawn by a team of some sort of equids (possibly onagers or domestic asses;[7] horses were only introduced in the 2nd millennium BC after being imported from Central Asia[8]).
Although Aryan debate assumes that horses were only restricted to central asia before being imported into south of asia in the 2nd millennium BC, which i think is most definitely wrong and evidently agenda based. There is no reason to believe that donkeys or their cousins onagers were ever deployed for war purposes, it is infact very stupid to believe. According to one theory trousers were first made by iranians to ride horses, again, these theories are archaic and very agenda based, mesopotamian, indus art work clearly show people wearing pants or trousers thousands of years before introduction of central asian horses. There is also no reason to believe that those were central asian horses rather than arabian or non central asian horses.
The reason why i think the standard depicts real horses not donkeys is because one matching horse artwork with a gap of two thousand years, one originating in thrace, and one originating in jiroft, south eastern iran.
Jiroft art work from 3rd millenium BC
clearly jiroft artwork and thracian artwork are the same, so there is reason to believe that jiroft artwork shows real horse, i dont think this lancer is riding a donkey, which would be quite stupid and after two thousand years thracians imitate jiroft artwork by replacing donkeys with horses, just to satisfy aryan theories.
horse bones from indus civilization have been already verified as horse bones by a prominent hungarian expert on horse bones. so its pretty clear that horses were well known in ancient civilizations of fertile crescent. 115.135.130.182 (talk) 21:27, 4 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
