The original text was written by Sir Leonard Woolley, the the head archaeologist who excavated at Ur from 1922-32, and was published in 1929 while the excavations were yet underway. Roger Moorey, who also worked alongside Sir Woolley at this same ancient site, has incorporated the record of this important dig into the context of more recent studies of this and other contemporaneous excavations in the same general area of Iraq. The updated edition that results is extensively illustrated with a collection of maps, drawings, and 130 wonderful pictures that enrich the reader's understanding of the significance of this area of the world.
