About this listen

Leonard Woolley, an archaeologist from Britain, returned to Iraq in 1922, almost 4,000 years after the ancient nuclear catastrophe, to uncover ancient Mesopotamia. An imposing ziggurat standing out in the desert plain drew him to the nearby site of Tell el-Muqayyar, where he began excavating. As old walls, artifacts, and inscriptions were unearthed, he realized he was digging up ancient Ur of the Chaldees.

Twelve years of his work were conducted through a joint expedition between the British Museum in London and the University of Pennsylvania Museum in Philadelphia. For those institutions, Sir Leonard Woolley found some of the most dramatic objects and artifacts in Ur. However, what he discovered may well surpass anything ever exhibited before.

In the course of removing layers of soil deposited by desert sands, the elements, and time from the ruins, the ancient city began to take shape—here were the walls, there were the harbors and canals, the residential quarters, the palace, and the Tummal, the elevated sacred area. Woolley's discovery of a cemetery dated thousands of years ago, including unique "royal" tombs discovered by digging at its edges, is the find of the century.
