EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from ancient history - an Assyrian baked clay hexagonal prism inscribed with the annals of Sennacherib, the King of Assyria. Dating back to 686 B. C. , this piece provides invaluable insights into the events that unfolded during Sennacherib's reign, particularly his siege of Jerusalem under the rule of King Hezekiah. The intricate cuneiform script etched onto this prism reveals a significant chapter in the Iron Age era. It narrates how Hezekiah initially resisted but ultimately submitted to the mighty Assyrians after their relentless assault on Jerusalem. The prism serves as a tangible testament to the power and influence wielded by Sennacherib and his empire during this period. Located in Nineveh, this historical treasure offers us glimpses into ancient civilizations' interactions and conflicts. Its discovery sheds light on not only Assyrian culture but also Hebrew history, as it mentions Hezekiah and his kingdom's encounter with foreign forces. As we examine this photograph, we are transported back in time to witness an important moment in Palestine's past. The stone-like texture of the clay prism adds authenticity to its significance, reminding us that these written records were meticulously preserved for centuries before being unearthed. Granger Art on Demand has beautifully captured this extraordinary relic through their lens, allowing us to appreciate its historical value and marvel at humanity's ability to document its experiences through writing even thousands of years ago.
