Summary
| Description |
English: This commemorative basalt stela depicts the Assyrian king Esarhaddon worshiping gods and symbols of gods. The king's left hand holds a royal mace and two ropes. These ropes pass through the lips of two captives. The kneeling smaller figure appears to an Egyptian crown prince Ushankhuru or probably pharaoh Taharqa, while the larger standing man is a Syrian city-state governor; probably the king of Tyre Baal I or king of Sidon Abdi-Milkutti. There are cuneiform inscriptions on the front side of the stela which narrate the victorious military campaigns of Esarhaddon. From the citadel of Sam'al/Zincirli, modern Turkey. 671 BCE. Pergamon Museum, Berlin, Germany. |
