  For a finite dimensional semisimple Lie algebra ${\frak{g}}$ and a root $q$
of unity in a field $k,$ we associate to these data a double quiver
$\bar{\cal{Q}}.$ It is shown that a restricted version of the quantized
enveloping algebras $U_q(\frak g)$ is a quotient of the double quiver algebra
$k\bar{\cal Q}.$
