Abstract
In August 2015 I received the permit of excavating the city of Eridu (Abū Šahrayn) by the Iraqi Authorities of the Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities and of the State Board of Antiquities and Heritage (SBAH), and the project will be carried on at Sapienza, University of Rome, by an Italian-Iraqi team. The Project AMEr (Italian-Iraqi Archaeological Mission at Eridu) has accordingly been created, aimed at not only prepairing the archaeological work on the various mounds of the sites, but also at building up a plan for the harmonious development of the huge archaeological area involved by Eridu according to the UNESCO standard. Among the debris scattered all over the site, there were, especially on Mound 1, fragments of inscribed bricks belonged to king Amar-Suena, and two of them, both with 10 lines preserved, Brick A 1–10 and Brick B 4–13 respectively, present a particularity, which singles them out from the other inscriptions.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
