Illustrations 9.A and 9.B
Early in the Chapter 9 body, there were notes to add Illustrations numbered 9.A and 9.B; but they were not included in the Illustration list section of Chapter 9. How do you think we should handle this? What illustrations belong there, and where do they belong, and where in the Illustration list should they be added, if at all?“‘Pope (1957) pointed out that the crenelated parapets crowning the walls and stairway railings of Persepolis, representing the mountain symbolism of the ziggurat, “are clearly symbolic and have no possible military value’ (Illustrations 9.A and 9.B)”

Add to Illustrations 9.?
Hudson made the following notes about two unnumbered illustrations in Chapter 9 that are not described to be placed elsewhere in the chapter, as far as we can tell. Can you help us identify the images and their rights, and help us find good locations to put either one in this chapter?

Hudson’s Note From Chapter 6
The first sacred storehouses were to protect the communities food and seed, and animals may have been first domesticated in the process of penning them up to provide sacrifices for the communal feasts which demarcated archaic calendars. Communal festivals accordingly became the paramount occasions for distributing all forms of the social surplus—gifts, taxes, and ultimately commercial products at fairs.
