==La scoperta==

I primi tre frammenti furono ritrovati durante degli scavi a [[Girsu|Telloh]] (l'antica Girsu) nel sud dell'[[Iraq]] nel 1881 dall'archeologo francese [[:en:Ernest de Sarzec|Ernest de Sarzec]]. Altri tre frammenti emersero durante gli scavi del 1888-1889. Un settimo frammento che più tardi fu riconosciuto come parte della stele su acquistato sul mercato delle antichità dal [[British Museum]] nel 1898 e, dopo due rifiuti, definitivamente consegnato al [[Musée du Louvre|Louvre]] nel 1932 al fine di ricostituire la massima parte possibile della stele<ref nome=barrelet>{{cita news | cognome=Barrelet |nome=Marie-Thérèse |anno=1970 |titolo=Peut-On Remettre en Question la "Restitution Matérielle de la Stèle des Vautours"? |journal=Journal of Near Eastern Studies |volume=29 |numero=4 |pagine=233–258 |jstor=543336 |lingua=French }}</ref>.

The stele can be placed in a tradition of mid- to late-third millennium BC southern [[Mesopotamia]] in which military victories are celebrated on stone monuments. A similar monument is the Victory Stele of [[Naram-Sin of Akkad|Naram-Sin]], created during the [[Akkadian Empire|Akkadian period]] that followed on the Early Dynastic III period.<ref>{{cite book |title=Ancient Mesopotamia.

The two sides of the stele show distinctly different scenes and have therefore been interpreted as a mythological side and a historical side. The mythological side is divided into two registers. The upper, larger register shows a large male figure holding a mace in his right hand and an ''[[Zu (mythology)|anzu]]'' or lion-headed eagle in his left hand. The ''anzu'' identifies the figure as the god [[Ninurta|Ningirsu]]. Below the ''anzu'' is a large net filled with the bodies of naked men. Behind Ningirsu stands a smaller female figure wearing a horned headband and with maces protruding from her shoulders. These characteristics allow the figure to be identified as the goddess [[Ninhursag]]. The lower, smaller register is very badly preserved but, based on comparisons with contemporary depictions, it has been suggested that it depicted the god Ningirsu standing on a chariot drawn by mythological animals.<ref name=winter/>
