Professor of Western Asiatic ' Archaeology, London University Professor Seton Lloyd , who for twenty years worked as an archaeologist in Mesopotamia and helped to organise the Iraqi Antiquities Department, talks about some aspects of Assyrian civilisation, in the light of the recent publication of M. E. L. Mallowan's monumental work Nimrud and its Remains. This is a record of Professor Mallowan's fifteen years' Assyrian excavations, reflecting in its title Layard's well-known Nineveh and its Remains of more than a hundred years ago.
