Sennacherib's Aqueduct at Jerwan

By Thorkild Jacobsen and Seton Lloyd

Monographs dealing with various specific phases of the cultures of the ancient Near East. Also philological researches dealing chiefly with cuneiform grammatical and lexicographical material.Dr. Jacobsen deals with the cuneiform records found at Jerwan. Using these and other inscriptions of Sennacherib, he has made a most illuminating study of the successive irrigation projects with the aid of which Sennacherib beautified Nineveh, his capital, and satisfied his desire for green parks and gardens.
