Descrição
This book contains two works by William Kennett Loftus (1821–58) in which he describes his archaeological surveying and excavations in Mesopotamia between 1849 and 1855. They remain a record of the first discoveries in a region significant for its biblical history, but previously hardly visited by Europeans.
