    ZOrA 10, 2017 • Kurzfassungen / Abstracts / Peter Pfälzner – Hasan A. Qasim The First and Second Seasons of the German-Kurdish Excavations The atFirst Bassetki and in 2015Second and 2016 Seasons of the German-Kurdish Excavations at Bassetki in 2015 and 2016 Peter Pfälzner – Hasan A. Qasim Abstract/Kurzfassung/ The University of Tübingen and the Directorate of Antiquities Duhok launched exca- vations in the frame of a joint project at the Bronze Age urban site of Bassetki, which is famous for the accidental discovery of the copper statue basis of the Akkadian ruler Naram-Sin. The major aim of the excavations is to investigate the importance and urban development of the site from the Early through the Middle to the Late Bronze Age. During the first two seasons of 2015 and 2016 the stratigraphy and chronology of the upper town were explored, as well as the settlement organisation of the extended lower town, and an extra-urban area to the south of the city, where a street and several cremation burials of the Middle Bronze Age were found. Die Universität Tübingen und die Antikendirektion Duhok haben 2015 mit der Aus- grabung der bronzezeitlichen Stadtanlage von Bassetki, die durch den Zufallsfund der Kupferstatuen-Basis des akkadischen Herrschers Naram-Sin bekannt geworden ist, im Rahmen eines Kooperationsprojektes begonnen. Hauptziel der Grabungen ist es, die Be- deutung und urbane Entwicklung der Stadtanlage von der Frühen über die Mittlere bis zur Späten Bronzezeit zu erforschen. In den ersten beiden Kampagnen 2015 und 2016 konnten die Stratigraphie und Chronologie der Oberstadt, die Siedlungsstruktur der weit- läufigen Unterstadt sowie ein außerstädtischer Bereich mit Befunden einer Straße und mehrerer Brandbestattungen aus der Mittelbronzezeit untersucht werden.

'VAR Before the 1991 Gulf\Var, Iraq's archaeological heritage was under the super­ vision :md protection of a large, well-organized and profess io nal Department of Antiquities and remained rel atively free from theft and vandali sm (Gibson 1997). In the afte rm ath of that war, however, as the cou ntry descended into chaos, between 1991 and 1994 eleven regional museums were broken into and approxi mately 3,000 artifacts and 484 manuscri pts were stolen, of which only fift y-four i[(:ms have been recovered (Lawler 2001a: 34; SchippCT 2005: 252; Symposium 1994). By the mid-1990s. the organi zational capabilities of the Dc­ partment of Antiquities were dcteriorating. and the focus of destruction shifted fro m museums ro archaeological sites. Man), Iraq is were reduced to destitution as massive infl ation rook hold in the wake of UN-imposed trade sa nctions. and robbing archaeological sites became an attractive and viable economic option. Much of the looting appears to have been orches trated by Saddam Husse in's brother-in-law Arshad Yasin (Gan:n 2004: 30).

  • The Cultural Heritage of Iraq After the 2Nd Gulf War (1)
    The Cultural Heritage of Iraq after the 2nd Gulf War (1) John Curtis (*) Abstract: * British Museum Keeper Curator This paper conducts a review of the situation in which currently Iraq’s archaeological heritage finds itself, following Department Middle East the military intervention carried out by United States and its allies in Iraq, which has had a tremendous impact not [email protected] only on archaeological sites but also on cultural centers and museums Institutions in Baghdad and Mosul. Resumen: En este trabajo se lleva a cabo una revisión de la situación en la que se encuentra actualmente el patrimonio arqueo- lógico iraquí tras la intervención militar llevada a cabo por Estados Unidos y sus aliados en Iraq, que ha afectado de manera importante no sólo a sus yacimientos arqueológicos sino también a los centros culturales y a las instituciones museísticas de Bagdad y Mosul. 75 MARQ. ARQUEOLOGÍA INTRODUCCIÓN Mesopotamia, modern Iraq, has often, quite rightly, been called the cradle of civilization. Here, from about 8000 BC onwards, in the rich alluvial plain created by the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, we find evidence for settled communities that are dependent on farming rather than hunting and gathering. After 3000 BC we see the formation of the first cities, the introduction of complex economies, and the invention of writing. In the south part of Mesopotamia, Sumerian civilization flourished in the 3rd millennium BC at cities such as Warka and Ur. In the 2nd millennium BC, the Sumerians were replaced in central Mesopotamia by the Babylonians, whose capital was at Babylon and whose best-known king was Hammurabi (1792-1750 BC), famous for his law code.

The area constitutes the core of the lands that were under the continuous rule of the Assyrian kings from the 14th to the 7th century BC (Radner 2006-08, 45-48). Unlike the regions west of the Tigris, this area was unaffected by the loss of territory to the newly forming Aramaean states in the 11th century BC and there was consequently no need for Adad-nerari II (911–891 BC) and his successors to re-establish control, once they undertook to restore Assyria’s old borders.

  • Defining the MB-LB Transition in Northern Mesopotamia: Some Archaeological Considerations on the New Data from the Erbil Plain and Neighbouring Regions
    Defining the MB-LB transition in northern Mesopotamia: some archaeological considerations on the new data from the Erbil Plain and neighbouring regions VALENTINA OSELINI Sapienza University of Rome Abstract The transitional phase between the Middle and the Late Bronze Age in Northern Mesopotamia is difficult to define, both from a historical and an archaeological perspective. This paper seeks to address the main issues in the identification of diagnostic ceramic features for this phase, by comparing the evidence from the Erbil plain with the data gathered from surveys and excavations in the Middle and Upper Tigris region (i.e. Yorgan Tepe, Tell Rimah, Tell Billa) and in the Syrian Jazirah (i.e. Tell Brak, Tell Bderi and Tell Barri). Through the analysis of the ceramic assemblages coming from the Kurdistan Region of Iraq and their comparison with materials be- longing to better known stratified sequences, I will focus on the diagnostic features characterizing the pottery repertoire during the Middle Bronze Age - Late Bronze Age transition.

  • Ancient Foundations Unit Two BC * Cradling Civilization
    Marshall High School Mr. Cline Western Civilization I: Ancient Foundations Unit Two BC * Cradling Civilization • The Akkadian Empire • The King • The Akkadian Empire was a monarchy, meaning that it was ruled by a king who inherited his position from a fellow family remember, usually a father or a brother. • In the Akkadian language, the king was referred to as the lugal which translates as ''great man''. • At the time, the lugal was not seen simply as an earthly ruler, but was seen as divine and considered to be one of the gods. • Because of this, the lugal had temples built to honor him. • This added greatly to his prestige as he was viewed as a political and religious figure. • It was also a great innovation; prior to the Akkadian Empire, rulers were viewed as representatives of the people who dealt with the divine world. * Cradling Civilization • The Akkadian Empire • It was also considered normal if a great man or ruler ascended to the heavens as a god following his death. • However, the belief that the current ruler was a living god was a significant change. • Stele of Naram Sin • War and conquest were considered one of the lugal's primary responsibilities, an important duty to expand the empire and protect its people. • The Akkadians were renowned for their military exploits and were even able to launch some of the first coordinated military campaigns in recorded history. • These campaigns were memorialized in one of the most fascinating archaeological finds to be made in Mesopotamia, the Naram Sin Stele. * Cradling Civilization • The Akkadian Empire • Stele of Naram Sin • The Victory Stele of Naram-Sin is a stele that dates to approximately 2254- 2218 BC.

  • On the Iraq Museum and Other Assaults Brief News About the Plundering of Iraqi Museums and the Systematic Looting of Iraqi Archaeological Heritage
    Isimu III ON THE IRAQ MUSEUM AND OTHER ASSAULTS BRIEF NEWS ABOUT THE PLUNDERING OF IRAQI MUSEUMS AND THE SYSTEMATIC LOOTING OF IRAQI ARCHAEOLOGICAL HERITAGE Joaquín María Córdoba With the collaboration of Alejandro Gallego Universidad Autónoma de Madrid To their excellencies Don Ignacio Rupérez and Don Fernando Valderrama, former Spanish Ambassadors to Iraq, who helped the Spanish archaeological mission so much and supported our struggle in defence of the cultural heritage of Iraq ABSTRACT The looting of the Iraq Museum occurred as an additional consequence of an illegal and unjust military intervention. In the author’s opinion, the looting of last April, although dramatic, was not the most harmful damage inflicted upon the heritage of Iraq. Much more serious is the fact that thanks to the indifference of international bodies in charge of protecting Iraqi heritage, over twelve years several regional museums have been emptied, many archaeological sites have been plundered by international gangs, and the seizure of chemical products has made restoration of the stored items virtually impossible. During these twelve years different publications and efforts were ignored or even silenced. Moral cowardice, political cynicism and abrogation of responsibility triggered the massive appearance of illegally obtained items on the international market of Mesopotamian antiquities, so encouraging dealers to continue their activities. The disastrous collapse of Iraqi heritage has, in the end, been partly alleviated, if not avoided, through the heroism and endeavour of the Iraq Museum curators and employees. However, the proven inability of international justice and the impunity with which antiquities are being trafficked requires a sustained response from specialists in defence of Iraqi heritage.
