    (Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. Centro Superior de Estudios de Oriente Próximo y Egiptología, 2011) Suárez Huerta, Ana María
    The cultural splendor of the 18th century was most notably marked by a phenomenon known as the Grand Tour. In this article we will discuss the significance of this term as well as the motivations that drove vast numbers of people to embark on this long journey across Europe. To better contextualize this voyage, we will discuss one unique case to which Spain is a direct witness. Though it has never reached a “tourist” level of interest, the history surrounding this case has afforded us the wonderful opportunity to serve as narrators of this exceptional story

    An Assyrian King in Turin
    (Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. Centro Superior de Estudios de Oriente Próximo y Egiptología, 2011) Lippolis, Carlo
    At the Museum of Antiquity in Turin (Italy) is now again exhibited the famous portrait of Sargon II (donated by P.E. Botta to his hometown, along with another portrait of a courtier) together with a few small fragments of other lesser-known Assyrian wall reliefs, from Khorsabad and Nineveh. In this paper we present some considerations on the two Botta’s reliefs, considering in particular the representational codes used by artists in the composition of the Assyrian royal portraits

    Eine Steininschrift des Sîn-šarru-iškun aus dem Site Museum in Assur
    (Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. Centro Superior de Estudios de Oriente Próximo y Egiptología, 2011) Kessler, Karlheinz
    This new royal inscription written on a stone block for the Assyrian king Sîn-šarru-iškun was at least housed in the Assur Site Museum until 1987. It contains a building inscription of the temple of Nabû and his consort Tašmētu in Assur similar to other cuneiform texts as appearing on clay tablets, cones, and bricks. The inscription consists mainly of stock-phrases that have been known for this ruler. Nevertheless, the text has to be taken as an independent version.

    Harrâdum dans le paysage archéologique du Moyen Euphrate au début du second millénaire av. J.-C.
    (Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. Centro Superior de Estudios de Oriente Próximo y Egiptología, 2011) Kepinski, Christine
    Harrâdum, new town of the Middle Euphrates, belongs to a line of fortified cities established by more or less far-distant realms. It emphasizes a new step towards territorial appropriation and underlines permanent control of main powers, able to relieve military conquests. From that time on, the archaeological landscape includes a variety of cities and villages of different sizes but also fortified walls that mark the boundaries of open or little built spaces, as well as gathering and ritual spaces
