found no evidence of recent looting. This was the first UNESCO inspection since the 2003 invasion... there was considerable evidence of looting in the 1980s and 90s, under Saddam Hussein. Early damage had been particularly bad at Ninevah, where the Sennacherib Palace reliefs were "almost entirely removed".

I would really like, before I die, to visit some of those sites in the Middle East. Even if I have to do it in a radiation suit. (The one I wear to protect me from solar flares.)
