拍品描述 翻译
Description: Ancient Near East, Neo-Babylonian Dynasty, reign of Nebuchadnezzar II, ca. 604 to 581 BCE. A wonderful clay brick stamped with a dedication to the most famous of all Kings of Babylon - Nebuchadnezzar II. The brick is ovoid in form with rough edges, a coarse verso, and a rectangular cuneiform inscription on the obverse. The importance of this inscribed clay record is reflected by the fact that the inscription of other similar examples has been deciphered by Professor Lambert of Birmingham University, an internationally-renowned expert in this field. Professor Lambert's translation reads as follows: "Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon, provisioner of Esagil and Ezida, prime son of Nabopolassar, King of Babylon, am I. Ebabbara, the Temple of Shamash in Larsa I restored as it was before, for Shamash, my Lord." Lucite display stand for photography purposes only. Size: 7.7" W x 11.4" H (19.6 cm x 29 cm). Following the defeat of the Assyrian Empire by the Babylonians in 612 BCE, Nebuchadnezzar II rebuilt the city of Babylon on a grand scale. It has been estimated that roughly 15 million baked bricks were used in the construction of official buildings. The bricks are usually square and often bear cuneiform inscriptions, generally made with a large stamp as seen here. This example was cut from such a complete brick. A stylistically-similar example hammered for 5,250 GBP (6,790.61) at Christie's, London, South Kensington "Antiquities Including the Plesch Collection of Ancient Glass" auction (sale 5951, April 28, 2009, lot 97): https://www.christies.com/Lotfinder/lot_details.aspx?hdnSaleID=22384&LN=97&intsaleid=22384&sid=5d6bbb29-fda7-43c8-ab85-ea6a37934beb This piece has been tested using thermoluminescence (TL) analysis and has been found to be ancient and of the period stated.
