With the help of just several hundred sharp, often large photographs of sculpture, ruins, landscapes (especially these partially in revealing color), and functional objects like bowls, as well as via a few dozen outstanding drawings of ground plans, terrain layouts, and reconstructed views, 5000 Years of the Art of Mesopotamia by Eva Strommenger conjures up ancient Mesopotamia so lively that one suddenly can overcome any inability to really imagine the treated period of the history of what is now Iraq. Also two beautiful maps of ancient Mesopotamia and of ancient western Asia are in the book.
