Mysterious statues have been found at various archaeological sites in Iraq. What makes these figurines unusual is their mesmerizing blue eyes. We know they were made by the Sumerians over 5000 years ago but since they are not mentioned in any cuneiform tablets we still don’t know why they were made or who they depict. Blue eyes are unusual in this region, a fact that has led to many questions, whether that may have been modelled on the gods of Sumer, the Anunnaki.
