‎New English Paperback. Pbo. Demy 8vo. (21 x 15 cm). In English and Turkish. 85 p., color and b/w plts. Çivi yazili metinler ve arkeolojik kaynaklar isiginda Asur Imparatorluk dönemi kraliçeleri.= Assyrian queens of the Imperial period in the light of the cuneiform texts and archaeological sources. The period between ca. 934-609 BCE is called the Neo-Assyrian or the Assyrian Imperial Period. The kings of Assyria who lived during this period are very well known, but the queens are less so. On these pages is information on the Assyrian queens' positions, titles and activities during the Neo-Assyrian Period. Our knowledge of these queens comes from textual as well as archaeological sources. During the 1988-1989 excavation season at Nimrud the queens' tombs were found at the Northwest Palace. These tombs included jewellery and objects belonging to three Assyrian queens, although ten Assyrian queens are known from this period. It is known that the Assyrian queens lived in the "harem" at the palace. They played an active role in the social, economic, religious and political life of Assyria. Some of them were very wealthy and had their own army under their command. They supported their husbands and sons as wife or mother. According to the sources, most of the Assyrian queens were not natives of Assyria. They came to the Assyrian palace from a foreign country via marriage. They had the title "woman of the palace" (in Sumerian, MI2.E2.GAL, and in Akkadian, segallu). The figure of the scorpion which appears on texts, seals and the other archaeological artefacts was identified with the queenship.‎

Emma Hurley died the way she lived--surrounded by an air of mystery with only her servants at her side. That is until she finally passes away.and her greedy heirs crawl out of the woodwork to stake a claim to Emma's fortune. But unlike most people Emma was not content to leave behind a simple will. Instead her final testament includes of all things a clever puzzle.one to be given only to her living heirs. The first one to solve the puzzle will inherit Emma's entire estate; everyone else will be left with a pittance. Complicating matters further the will stipulates that Cora Felton--local celebrity and famed author of a popular syndicated crossword puzzle column--must referee the contest. Unfortunately Cora knows far more about the fine art of mixing a martini than creating--let alone solving--crossword puzzles. It's Cora's niece Sherry who's the brains behind Cora's "Puzzle Lady" persona. And it's up to Sherry to unravel the bizarre riddle Emma Hurley engineered before her death. For soon it's plain that Emma's game is one without a clear winner.and that the players could lose far more than they ever imagine. Before long would-be heirs are scouring every nook and cranny of the town as they scramble to solve a forty-year-old puzzle while the Puzzle Lady herself adds to the chaos with her less-than-sobering antics. Meanwhile Sherry has some pressing problems of her own: Her romantic interest in a mild-mannered local reporter is turning into an unpleasant love triangle--one that involves a glamorous young lawyer. And when one of the participants in Emma's contest is knifed to death the last thing Sherry needs is amorous advances--especially when they're coming from the number one suspect in the crime. .
