Description

Archaeological heritage has long been threatened by damage or destruction during armed conflicts. Recently, however, deliberate destruction has increasingly become a major part of daily threats in some areas. In that context these datasets describe the results of a programme of remote sensing of damage at Nineveh, within a wider research initiative involving six years of monitoring in northern Iraq. Analysis of satellite imagery, low-and level airphotography observation were combined in a comprehensive assessment of the damage. These datasets present an updated topographic map of Nineveh and its city walls, with a summary of the damage encountered.

Notes

The generosity and support of these institutions are greatly appreciated. Particular thanks are offered to the State Board of Antiquities and Heritage (Baghdad and Nineveh Office) in Iraq for the scientific collaboration, constant support and valuable advice. The research team was builded by Berlioz S. (ISMEO), Vidale M.(Department of Cultural Heritage: Archaeology and History of Art, Cinema and Music, University of Padua (Italy), Adib Fateh Ali (Freelance), Al-Lyla R. (State Board of Antiquities and Heritage (Iraq), Abbo al-Araj A. (State Board of Antiquities and Heritage (Iraq), Bianchi A.
