| Résumé: | The city of Nineveh was the dazzling capital of the far-flung Neo-Assyrian empire before it was defeated by a combined force of Medes and Babylonians in 612 B.C.E. The ruins of the ancient city are now threatened by the rapid growth of the modern city of Mosul, which has shaped all of the recent excavations at the site, including those held by the University of California, Berkeley, between 1987 and 1990. |
