介绍（中）	这条项链装饰着在乌尔所谓的大死亡坑中的六十八名妇女或年轻女孩之一，这可能是皇家陵墓的一部分。尸体上都装饰着由黄金、青金石和红玉髓制成的最华丽的珠宝。项圈由交替的三角形组成，十二个青金石和十一个金色。每个金色三角形都由一块菱形波纹金属板制成，该金属板已折叠回以形成七个水平管。青金石三角形的表面也是波纹状的，看起来好像也有七个水平穿孔，但实际上只有三个穿孔穿过石头，因此衣领由三根而不是七根线固定在一起。像这样的项圈太短，无法完全包围脖子。它们可能作为项链等单独的物品佩戴，通过背面的布带延伸，或者它们可能已连接到夹克上。
介绍（英）	This choker adorned one of the sixty-eight women or young girls laid out in the so-called Great Death Pit at Ur, which was probably part of a royal tomb. The bodies were all ornamented with the most splendid jewelry made of gold, lapis lazuli, and carnelian. The collar consists of alternating triangles, twelve of lapis lazuli and eleven of gold. Each gold triangle is made from a diamond-shaped and corrugated piece of sheet metal that has been folded back on itself to create seven horizontal tubes. The surface of the lapis lazuli triangles is also corrugated, making it look as if they too have seven horizontal perforations, but in fact there are only three perforations through the stones, so that the collar was held together by three rather than seven threads. Collars like these are too short to have fully encircled the neck. They may have been worn as separate items like chokers, extended by cloth straps around the back, or they may have been attached to jackets.
