From the estate of Dr. Jutta Börker-Klähn (1942-2019), private lecturer in Ancient Oriental Studies at the universities of Berlin, Würzburg and Hamburg. - With dedication of the author to J. Börker. - A very good and clean copy. - From the text: The fragmentary obelisk of Ashurnasirpal II published here, in an entirely new reconstruction, was excavated at Nimrud by a British Museum expedition in late February 1853. The field director was Hormuzd Rassam, under the remote supervision of Henry Rawlinson in Baghdad. Since Rassam seldom receives proper credit for his Assyrian discoveries, which included the palace and much of the library of Ashurbanipal, the so-called White and Broken Obelisks, the Shamshi-Adad stela, the Balawat Gates, and much else, and since it is convenient to have succinct names for objects of this kind, I propose that this particular monument, which now bears the number 118800 in the Department of Western Asiatic Antiquities of the British Museum, should be known as the Rassam Obelisk. I am indebted to my colleagues in the British Museum for their comments on this paper, and to Miss Ann Searight for the drawings; the photographs were taken by the Museum's Photographic Service.
