Summary:

Mesopotamian Studies 4 provides the first complete presentation of the ceramic vessels from the levels associated with the Neo-Assyrian occupation of Tell Masaịkh, excavated by a French-Syrian archaeological mission between 1996 and 2010. Located in the valley of the Middle Euphrates in Syria, at a crossroads for encounters and on a key axis for communications and trade from Assyria to the Mediterranean, as well as from Anatolia to Babylonia, Tell Masaịkh corresponds to the ancient city of Kar-Assurnairpal, founded on the left bank of the Euphrates by Aurnairpal II during his military conquests, and later becoming one of the residences of the Assyrian governor Nergal-eresh.
