Neil MacGregor: 2600 vjet histori në një objekt

A 2,600-year-old clay cylinder, once lost and now a centerpiece in museums, continues to influence the Middle East’s cultural and political debates. Originally created to proclaim King Cyrus's policy of religious tolerance and the return of exiled peoples, it has served as a symbol for empires, religious communities, and modern states. Displayed before millions in Tehran and replicated at the United Nations, this ancient artifact still sparks passionate conversations about coexistence and national identity today.
