Thanks. Amazing what they could do back then. What does the Chicago oriental museum have?

A lot of Assyrian. The Archimedean gold treasure. They let us buy solid gold replicas! There are monuments where they had to take out a wall to bring it in.

And I have to say that that picture looks EXACTLY the way it looked when I docented in 1967 - 51 years ago!
