Originally published in 1939; this book contains an assessment of the historical evidence provided by ancient Babylonian cuneiform tablets. The text is accompanied by a number of photographs of the tablets; as well as of important archaeological sites and Babylonian artefacts. Chiera's enthusiasm for his subject is clear; as the text is accessibly written and contains many Babylonian legends and assesses their relationship to biblical texts. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in Assyriology and the ancient Middle East.
