Yes, excellent read, and most unfortunate that what remains of Assyrian history is being destroyed by those who are less than enlightened.

Great find and interesting article, my wife is 100% Assyrian, born and raised here. Luckily the Oriental Institute here at the University of Chicago also has a fine collection. It's a shame that this is happening especially to a people that haven't had a country of their own for centuries.

Very interesting article.

Please???

I often wondered how Alexander could destroy the magnificent Persian capital. Seems mankind will never learn.
Very disturbing.
