Description
English: Prisoners playing lyres. Assyrian, about 700-692 BC. From Nineveh, South-West Palace. Three musicians are marched under escort through mountainous country. Their dress indicates that they come from somewhere to the west off Assyria, possibly Phoenicia. The scene recalls the Biblical lament (Psalm 137) referring to a later period: 'they that carried us away captive required of us a song'. WA 124947.
