ResumoThe following article derives from field-work carried out by the authors at Nineveh from January to March 1987. This work would not have been possible without the kind permission of Dr. Muayyad Damirji, Director General of Antiquities, to whom we are most grateful. We would also like to extend our thanks to the many other Iraqi archaeologists who showed interest in our work and gave us assistance, in particular Dr. Abd as-Sattar Jabar al-Azawi, Muzahem Mahmoud Husein, Samir Dhahir Muhassin al-Saraf, Mohammed Ali Mustafa, Dr. Tariq Madhloom, Dr. Behnam Abu as-Soof, Hazim Abdul Hamid, Fadhil Abbas Ahmed and Salim Yunis Hosein; to Professor David Stronach for the opportunity of working on the University of California at Berkeley excavations at Nineveh in 1989 and for assistance in completing our earlier work; to Dr. Jeremy Black, Nicholas Postgate, Dr. Roger Matthews, Tony Wilkinson, Dr. Julian Reade, Dr. Trevor Watkins, Professor Anthony Snodgrass and Professor Malcolm Colledge for their academic and/or logistic support; to Dr. P. R. S. Moorey and the other participants in a seminar held in Oxford in October 1989 for their valuable discussion and comments; and to Jim Roberts for his translation of works in Arabic.
