Show moreCollection of photographs of of bronze doors discovered in 1878 in Iraq by Hormuzd Rassam. These remarkable archaeological finds are on display at the British Museum in London, and primarily represent hunting scenes and battles The Balawat Gates were three sets of gates from Balawat or Imgur-Enlil, an ancient outpost of the Assyrian Empire. The greater part of the gates had decayed and deteriorated over time, leaving behind a unique collection of inscribed bronze bands that describe the exploits and lives of the Assyrian Kings. The gates at the British Museum were discovered in 1878 by a local archaeologist Hormuzd Rassam, the first Assyrian archaeologist. By the time of their discovery, the wood had already rotted away and only remnants of the decorated bronze bands remained. The eight bands on each door would have been over 285 feet long in total and they decorated and strengthened the outer face and the door post. The other set of the gates is in the Mosul Museum. Small sections of the Shalmaneser bronze door bands are also at the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore and in the Istanbul Archaeological Museums. translated by Theo G. Pinches.
