Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Boghaz-Keui (now Bo azkale), Turkey, is the site of the ancient Hittite city of Hattusa. In the early 1900s German archaeological expeditions discovered the royal archives of clay cuneiform tablets, among other interesting artifacts. These tablets, describing in detail the legal and cultural practices of this people, provided evidentiary support for the reliability of similar practices related in the Old Testament (which had come under attack as being too complex for that time period). This is a facsimile reprint of an article summarizing the archaeological exploration of the city during the 1907 summer season.

Download or read book Sennacherib s Palace Without Rival at Nineveh written by John Malcolm Russell and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1991 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Best known today from biblical accounts of his exploits and ignominious end, the Assyrian king Sennacherib (704-681 B.C.) was once the ruler of all western Asia. In his capital at Nineveh, in what is now northern Iraq, he built what he called the "Palace without Rival." Though only scattered traces of this magnificent structure are visible today, contemporary written descriptions and surviving wall reliefs permit a remarkably detailed reconstruction of the appearance and significance of the palace. An art historian trained in ancient Near East philology, archaeology, and history, John Malcolm Russell marshals these resources to investigate the meaning and political function of the palace of Sennacherib. He contends that the meaning of the monument cannot be found in images or texts alone; nor can these be divorced from architectural context. Thus his study combines discussions of the context of inscriptions in Sennacherib's palace with reconstructions of its physical appearance and analyses of the principles by which the subjects of Sennacherib's reliefs were organized to express meaning. Many of the illustrations are published here for the first time, notably drawings of palace reliefs made by nineteenth-century excavators and photographs taken in the course of the author's own excavations at Nineveh.
