"Tree of Life"
Tree of life rugs feature a popular motif in oriental carpets, pottery and other decorative items. Since the symbol is found in many different cultures around the world, its exact origin is obscure. However, scholars believe it originated in ancient Mesopotamia, although the tree’s features have transformed over the centuries.
The earliest known Mesopotamian “Tree of Life,” which dates back to 2,500 BCE, depicts a Sumerian god standing in front of two sacred trees. A black steatite cylinder seal from the same period shows a goddess picking fruit from a sacred palm tree. This could have been the inspiration for the story of the forbidden fruit in Genesis.
