“One of the most important finds of the excavations of the British School of Archaeology in Iraq at Kalhu, the so-called “Nimrud Letters” are part of the state correspondence of the Assyrian kings Tiglatpileser III (744-727 BC) and Sargon II (721-705 BC). Their contents shed light not only on the history of Assyria in the 8th century BC, but of the entire Middle East.”
