Die Ziqqurrat von Nippur im 1. Jahrtausend v.Chr.
Abstract
B. Schneider bietet eine Geschichte und Darstellung der Ziqqurrat von Nippur und ihrer Ausgrabung – mit einem Fokus auf der Erörterung der verschiedenen Baukörper der Ziqqurrat. Ein Einleitungskapitel (Kapitel I) beschreibt die geographische Lage von Nippur. Eine ausführliche Geschichte der Ausgrabung am Tell der Ziqqurrat, genannt Bint el-Amir, bildet Kapitel II. Von besonderem Interesse ist hierbei die noch erhaltene Dokumentation der verschiedenen Grabungskampagnen des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts innerhalb der Archive in Philadelphia und Jena. Dies erwies sich als unabdingbare Vorarbeit der Beschreibung der Baukörper der jüngsten Ziqqurrat-Periode (Kapitel III), die den eigentlichen Schwerpunkt dieser Arbeit darstellt. Als abschließender Überblick wird eine vorläufige Interpretation und eine relative Einordnung der beschriebenen Baukörper gegeben (Kapitel IV). Dieses Kapitel dient vor allem der Veranschaulichung des derzeitigen Forschungsstands und stellt somit kein endgültiges Ergebnis dar. Kapitel V ist der Frage der Rekonstruktion der Ziqqurrat des 1. Jahrtausends gewidmet, inklusive einer Zusammenstellung der in diesem Zusammenhang noch durch Nachuntersuchungen zu klärenden Bereiche. – Zahlreiche Photographien und Zeichnungen sowohl der Ausgrabungen als auch des gegenwärtigen Zustands veranschaulichen die Darstellung. B. Schneider provides a history and account of the Nippur ziqqurrat and its excavation - with a focus on discussing the various structures of the ziqqurrat. An introductory chapter (Chapter I) describes the geographical location of Nippur. A detailed history of the excavation at the Tell of the Ziqqurrat, called Bint el-Amir, forms Chapter II. Of particular interest is the surviving documentation of the various excavation campaigns of the 19th and 20th centuries within the archives in Philadelphia and Jena. This proved to be an indispensable preparatory work for the description of the structures of the most recent ziqqurrat period (Chapter III), which is the actual focus of this work. As a concluding overview, a provisional interpretation and a relative classification of the structures described is given (Chapter IV). This chapter primarily serves to illustrate the current state of research and does not represent a final result. Chapter V is devoted to the question of the reconstruction of the ziqqurrat of the 1st millennium, including a summary of the areas that still need to be clarified by follow-up investigations in this context. – Numerous photographs and drawings both of the excavations and of the current state illustrate the representation.

The recent on-site study of the ziggurat clearly shows that the last major reconstruction of the ziggurat post-dates Assurbanipal's rebuilding project.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
