Just finishing Gilgamesh - Book 2 of Emily H Wilson's
Sumarians Trilogy. It's as brilliant & as thrilling as Inanna (Bk1). Ancient Mesopotamian mythology, archaeology & history brought fantastically to life. Now have to wait for Bk 3...

At long last we at Living Mesopotamia CIC with SBAH Diyala have started the @aliph.foundation funded conservation project on the 17th century Khan Bani Saad, Diyala, Iraq (and we also have pre-appointed site mascots 🐱🐶😊)
