|Event description=Craftsmen’s Marks on Glazed Bricks and Ivories from the 1st Millenium BCE in the Ancient Near East and What They can Tell us About Their Makers

Glazed architectural decoration of temples and palaces in the Ancient Near East can be attested from the mid-15th century BCE onwards. Prominent monuments such as the Ishtar Gate from Babylon (7th–6th century BCE) or the Sin Temple from Khorsabad (8th century BCE), and the famous reconstructed rounded glazed brick panel from Fort Shalmeneser in Nimrud (9th century BCE) have been widely discussed, particularly in regard to their rich iconography. Recent studies have begun to focus more closely on the production, construction, and assembly of these monuments by ancient brickmakers, bricklayers, masons, and artisans.
