This pdf was made from the ECHO digitalization of The Cuneiform Inscriptions of Western Asia. I hope to get the rest done at a later time, and re-do the messed up parts of this one. I'm not totally sure, but it seems like a very famous, and one of the first, corpora of cuneiform inscriptions. Although Volumes 1-5 are online only at ECHO, there are no pdf versions of any of them. It seems apparent that this book (folio?) was owned by E A Wallis Budge and that he left it to The British Museum,...

The image of the dragon on the battle banner of Alexander the Great is in the illustration “ Alexander with the troops enters Thessaly. The local tyrant shows humility. Valuable gifts are presented to Alexander ”. The illustration attracts attention not by the fact of the image of the dragon, but by the iconography of the dragon motif on Alexander’s battle banner, which is unusual for ancient Greek depiction. There is no doubt that the Byzantine artist portrayed the dragon according to...
