To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The city, with its high walls and flanking towers, is built on very undulating ground, and is being attacked by Assyrian archers, who have captured and occupied its outermost fortifications (PI. XLIV). Archers in chariots attack the city from the other side (PI. XLV-XLVII). Lower Register : The capture of Uburi, continued. The Assyrian besieging force, part of which operates on higher ground, is continued on Plate XLIII. The apparently deserted city on Plate XLIV, bears a strong resemblance to ...Uburi in the upper register, with which it may probably be identified. Its capture is indicated by the rows of heads fixed to one of its tall towers. From it male and female prisoners are being led under armed escort to a smaller city in the plain in Assyrian occupation (PI. XLV-XLVII). It should be noted that one section is wanting from the left end of the band, which may be partly restored, in the lower register, from two fragments not in the British Museum (cf. Unger, Zvm Bronzetor von Balawat, Tafel I).
