| Obverse [0:4] 11–44 | Palace of Sennacherib, king of the world, king of Assyria: I had horse troughs of white limestone built so that fu[ng]us cannot carry (them) off (into death) in the future. I filled (the space) in front of these horse troughs under my warhorses’ feet with blocks of pappardilû-stone, papparmīnu-stone, (and) ḫulālu-stone, leftovers of my choice stones, as well as jasper, marble, breccia, pendû-stone, alallu-stone, girimḫilibû-stone, engisû-stone, alabaster, sābû-stone, ḫaltu-stone, (and) fragments of slabs (used in the building) of my palace. |
