Khorsabad, Iraq. A7368. Sennacherib raises his hand in greeting to his father, Sargon, pictured in a relief not shown. An attendant, thought to be a eunuch, follows. The façade of the throneroom at Khorsabad was 85 m (92 yds) long. It was decorated with monumental carved reliefs showing processions of human figures. The doorways, like many of the other palace portals, were guarded by human- headed winged bulls known as lamassu. Oriental Institute archaeologists excavated the throneroom courtyard in 1928–1929 and were given a lamassu and the reliefs as part of the division of finds from that season. Photo by Sarah Sapperstein The pages that divide the sections of this year’s report feature “Portraits of the Past,” photographs of Oriental Institute Museum gallery objects representing human faces across the different cultures and eras of the ancient Near East.

Stein The 2006–2007 academic year has seen major developments in virtually every aspect of the Ori- ental Institute. The scale and scope of the work presented in this Annual Report are so broad that I can only call your attention to a few highlights. Oriental Institute archaeologists have launched two important new field projects. David Schloen has begun what we hope will be a long-term program of excavations at Zincirli, near the Syrian border in southeast Turkey. Zincirli can be identified from inscriptions as ancient Sam’al, one of the most important Neo-Hittite and Neo-Assyrian cities. Zincirli boasts not only extraordinary monumental architecture and carved basalt reliefs, but more importantly provides the rare opportunity to make broad horizontal clearances that we need in order to understand the workings
