Ключи в клинописи: быт по древним записям Месопотамии

Historian Amanda Podany explores cuneiform records and archaeological finds to illuminate the lives of three Mesopotamians who lived between 2300 and 1700 BC: the world's first known author, a scribe, and Hammurabi, king of Babylon. Following her presentation, Dr. Podany is joined by Timothy Potts, director of the J. Paul Getty Museum, to answer viewer questions. This program was presented via Zoom on Tuesday, May 4, 2021. This program complements the exhibition “Mesopotamia: Civilization Begins“ on view at the Getty Villa Museum through August 16, 2021.
