Abstract
A ribbed bronze bowl from Karmir-blur inscribed with the name of King Sarduri has been reinterpreted as the earliest known bronze inscription of Sarduri, son of Lutipri, the first Urartian sovereign. Another bowl in the Hermitage, bearing a similar inscription, shares the same features and can likewise be attributed to Sarduri I. Together they form the missing link between the earliest ribbed bowl and the later plain bronze vessels associated with subsequent Urartian kings.
