There is a longer text of Sennacherib that concerns the building of an Akītu house outside the walls of Aššur. Most of the preserved obverse of the text published here has the titles and epithets of the king (obv. 1-13). Then the text begins to narrate work on the Akītu house just before it breaks off (obv. 14-15). The preserved portion of the reverse seems to refer to the Nergal Gate (rev. 2′) and then describes in general terms the annual celebrations in the Akītu house. The text concludes with a date (690 BC). Copyright © The British Institute for the Study of Iraq 1999 Ahmad Ali Yaseen Grayson A.
