Sobre este artículo
(London, Ernest Benn, 1954). 8vo; original burgundy cloth; no dustwrapper; pp. 262; map; plans; line drawings; monochrome plates; colour frontis. Spine very slightly cocked; corners a little bumped; light spotting to endpapers. Good condition. "As long ago as 1854, Mr. J. E. Taylor, British Consul at Basra, was employed by the British Museum to investigate some of the southern sites of Mesopotamia, and chose for his chief work the Mound of Pitch. Here he unearthed inscriptions which for the first time revealed that the nameless ruin was none other than Ur, so-called 'of the Chaldees', the home of Abraham." .
