Esarhaddon (XVII)

View of the “inscription” of the Assyrian king Esarhaddon with a partially preserved cuneiform text that describes his victory over Egypt in 671 B.C.

Like other Assyrian “inscriptions” note his raised right arm, his flexed left arm (across his body), his beard and his conical hat with a “button” on the top.
