The Excavations in Assyria and Babylonia - Bog

Hermann Vollrat Hilprecht (1859-1925) was a leading German-American archaeologist and Assyriologist. This generously illustrated book, first published in 1904, describes the early British, French and American excavations in Assyria and Babylon during the nineteenth century. It provides a valuable retrospective account and evaluation of the archaeological beginnings of Assyriology.
