Barrier of Inanna: The Formidable Fortress of Aratta - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The Barrier of Inanna centers on the archaeological site Godin Tepe, situated in Western Iran. The discovery of hundreds of clay sling bullets strongly indicates that this site served as a military fort. Additionally, the dating of Oval Enclosure VI:1 to around 3000 BC aligns well with the Uruk/Aratta conflict involving Enmerkar (possibly identified with Nimrod) and Lugalbanda. This evidence supports the notion that Godin Tepe is a plausible candidate for the historical location of Aratta.
