The Excavations at Tell Al Rimah: The Pottery: 4 (Iraq Archaeological Reports) - Tapa blanda

The Excavations at Tell Al Rimah (Paperback)

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The site of Tell al Rimah lies at the northern edge of the Iraqi Jazirah. It is noted in particular for its elaborately ornamented Old Babylonian temple and its unique evidence for third millennium BC vaulting techniques. The site was occupied throughout the second and third millennia BC and, briefly, during Late Assyrian times. This volume presents the complete repertoire of second and first millennium pottery, together with a summary of the history and stratigraphy of the site. This material, which is both extensive and unusually well dated owing to its association with cuneiform evidence, constitutes by far the largest publication of Middle and Late Bronze Age (Old Babylonian, Mitanni and Middle Assyrian) pottery from Northern Mesopotamia. The book will be a valuable resource of information for sites throughout the region. The site of Tell al Rimah was chosen so as to yield material which would flesh out the bones of second millennium history and archaeology in Assyria. This volume is devoted to the publication of the pottery from these excavations with a commentary on the stratigraphy of the site.
