Sir Leonard Woolley, who led the joint British Museum and University of Pennsylvania expedition from 1922 to 1934, presents his firsthand account of uncovering one of the most significant archaeological sites in human history. The narrative details the discovery of the Royal Tombs of Ur, including extraordinary burial treasures, the legendary Death Pit, and evidence of a great flood that may underpin the biblical story of Noah. Written with the authority of a seasoned excavator yet accessible to the general reader, the work brings the ancient Sumerian civilisation vividly to life, illustrating how these discoveries fundamentally reshaped our understanding of early human culture and Mesopotamian history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956374253787,"sku":"2026200008559-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/69c07cbd-4dea-4afe-b012-03330f695e2f.png?v=1783500478","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200008559-secondhand-ur-of-the-chaldees","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
