Omschrijving

Botta's Letters on the Discoveries at Nineveh is a book written by Paul Emile Botta, a French archaeologist who excavated the ancient city of Nineveh in modern-day Iraq. The book, published in 1850, is a collection of letters written by Botta to his friends and colleagues in Europe, describing his experiences and discoveries during his excavations.Botta's excavations at Nineveh, which began in 1842 and lasted for several years, were groundbreaking in their scope and significance. He uncovered a vast array of ancient artifacts and structures, including the palace of the Assyrian king Sargon II, which had lain buried for centuries.In his letters, Botta describes in detail the process of excavation, the challenges he faced, and the many fascinating discoveries he made. He also provides insights into the culture and history of the ancient Assyrians, shedding light on a civilization that had been largely forgotten.Botta's Letters on the Discoveries at Nineveh is a valuable historical document, offering a firsthand account of one of the most important archaeological discoveries of the 19th century. It is also a fascinating glimpse into the life and work of a pioneering archaeologist, whose efforts helped to transform our understanding of the ancient world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
