Summary
| Description |
English: This scene (detail, south face, west end of the throne dais) is part of a long tributary one where Shalmaneser III receives Chaldean tribute from Musallim-Marduk, son of Ukani. Here, the Assyrian king, Shalmaneser III (r. 858 - 824 BCE), stands and his left hand rests on the tip of his bow while the right hand (grasping a pair of arrows) is raised in salute. The king is surrounded by his attendants. The king is represented as the tallest figure in the group, occupying the full height of the panel. The dais was completed around 846-845 BCE (and that would be the king's 13th year of reign).
This dais was found in the eastern end of the throne room (T1) at Fort Shalmaneser in the city of Nimrud (in modern-day Nineveh Governorate, Iraq) in 1962 CE. On display at the Iraq Museum in Baghdad, Iraq. |
