The Library of Ancient Wisdom: Mesopotamia and the making of History

And the DCA is back with another event! This time, we will be hosting Dr Selena Wisnom from Leicester University, who will be talking about the Great Library at Nineveh.

🕰️ Join us at Strutts Community Centre in Belper at 7:30pm on the 2nd December.

📚 Discovered in Iraq by Victorian archaeologists, the library of Mesopotamian King Ashurbinapal is one of the oldest and greatest stores of human knowledge known to us. Assyriologist Selena Wisnom will help immerse in its depths. https://www.selenawisnom.com
