Nimrud: Ishtar Temple, 2023, part 2

I worked primarily in the Ishtar Temple at Nimrud this past season (Spring 2023) and filmed a walkthrough at the end of each week. I combined weeks 2 and 3 into this intro tour and saved the final week for part 2. This is part two, end of week four of our rather short season. We typically dig for 6-8 weeks, but in this season we were still establishing our base camp and there were only four of us supervising. We are planning a much bigger season in October where we will have many more specialists, including conservators and artists to help care for and document the artifacts and buildings. We have done much of the initial clean-up work and begun to learn a great deal about previously unexcavated areas. These areas will tie our maps together and help us understand the overall layout of the citadel mound. A team is currently working on cleaning the major debris from the Northwest Palace and that work will continue. It was the most completely reconstructed building prior to the ISIS takeover, and the one that was most heavily targeted by ISIS. In this video, I give a final walkthrough of the double gateway we've cleared this season and talk a bit more about its placement between the Ishtar and Ninurta temples. We've still got much work to do, but we've learned a lot already and we'll learn still more in the next season. 00:00 intro 00:56 temples overview 02:43 gateway from Ninurta 04:40 gate chamber 06:16 Isthar courtyard 06:39 wrap-up and outro
