The Gudea cylinders refer to a set of two inscribed clay cylinders from ancient Mesopotamia, specifically from the reign of Gudea, the ruler (or "ensi") of the Sumerian city-state of Lagash around 2100 BCE. These cylinders are famous for their detailed inscriptions that provide insight into Gudea's policies, achievements, and the religious and political climate of the time.
