The Sealand kings who controlled part of it were long known to us only indirectly. A palatial archive published recently now illuminates this elusive polity from the inside. This book explores its political, economic, and religious history, as well as the transmission of its memory. It forms a basis for interpreting future finds of that period in southern Iraq.Studies in ancient Near Eastern records ;Volume 20.Babylon (Extinct city)-History-SourcesBabylonia-Kings and rulersIraq-AntiquitiesIraq-History-To 634HISTORY / Middle East / GeneralbisacshBabyloniaKings and rulersBabylon (Extinct city)HistorySourcesIraqHistoryTo 634IraqAntiquitiesEarly Kassite Period.First Dynasty of the Sealand.Late Old Babylonian Period.Mesopotamian History.Babylon (Extinct city)-History-Sources.Babylonia-Kings and rulers.Iraq-Antiquities.Iraq-History-To 634.HISTORY / Middle East / General.935/.02Boivin Odette1571484MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910796786303321The first dynasty of the Sealand in Mesopotamia3845929UNINA
