Summary
[edit]DescriptionGod Ea (Sumerian Enki) with a fish-cloaked apkallu, part of a basalt water basin from Assur, Iraq. Reign of Sennacherib, 7th century BCE. Pergamon Museum, Berlin.jpg |
English: Detail; water god Ea (Sumerian Enki) (left) with a priest wearing a fish cloak (right), water basin from Assur. When discovered, this water basin was completely shattered. It was cut originally from a single basalt block and was located in the courtyard of the temple of Assur. At each corner and side of the basin's walls, there are water gods holding water-flowing water jugs. Water flows from the sky above, into the jugs, and downward to the earth below. Two priests appear to wear fish skins or cloaks and hold small buckets filled with a fluid to purify the water god at the center. There are several repeated cuneiform inscriptions that mention the name of the Assyrian king Sennacherib. The interior of the basin was not decorated. The basin's location and its decorations refer to the fact that this basin was used for cultic purification ceremonies. From Assur, Iraq. Neo-Assyrian period, reign of Sennacherib, 704-681 BCE. Pergamon Museum, Berlin, Germany. |
