Abstract
Most of the contacts between the Iranian highlands and Mesopotamian lowlands have gone through the Trans Tigridian lands. Unfortunately still not much is known about this region, substantially extending in the border area between Iraq and Iran. It is well known that at the least from the late third millennium BC on the mountainous eastern periphery of Mesopotamian lowlands, local kings and rulers copy the pose and the iconography of Naram-Sin on his Victory Stela, originally set up at Sippar (in the area of Babylon) and now at the Louvre in Paris.File in questo prodotto:
