FIRST EDITION AND A POPULAR ACCOUNT OF THE IMPORTANT BABYLONIAN EXPEDITION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA. The author was the only English member of the American expedition giving him a unique perspective on its intentions and discoveries. BY NILE AND EUPHRATES is not a typical expedition log; it is an account of life in an excavator's camp the journey to camp and the people encountered along the way.<br> As British member of Petrie's archeological expedition to Egypt and Mesopotamia Geere was present during the important excavations at Nippur. Nippur was situated on both sides of the ancient bed of the Shatt-en-Nil canal one of the earliest courses of the Euphrates between the present bed of that river and the Tigris almost 160 km southeast of Baghdad. The canal bed divides the site into an East Mound and West Mound. It is represented by the great complex of ruin mounds known to the Arabs as Nuffar written by the earlier explorers Niffer and later as Nippur.<br> Nippur was first excavated briefly by Sir Austen Henry Layard in 1851. But full-scale digging was begun by the expedition from the University of Pennsylvania. The work involved four seasons of excavation between 1889 and 1900 and was led by John Punnett Peters John Henry Haynes and Hermann Volrath Hilprecht all of whom were known to and cited by Geere. Thousands of tablets were found at a smaller mound dubbed "tablet hill" about 7.5 meters in average height and 52 square meters in area southeast of the temple mound.A true arch one of the world's earliest examples was also found. In the Parthian layer a box containing fragments of votive axes made of glass from the Kassite period were found. Several late Kassite rulers are represented including Kurigalzu II. T. & T.

1907142830NP: Nimrod Expedition 1907. Small piece of vellum 10 X 7 cm. Printed on one side are six words which were intended to have observations recorded adjacent. Other than a bit of shrinkage to the vellum the item is in nice condition. This interesting expedition registration slip seems to have been intended for oceanographic recording. The six areas for recording are titled as follows: No.; Date; Lat.; Long; Depth; and Temp. The provenance for the slip is from the Goldberg collection as the other items in the catalogue. Other than being recorded in the Goldberg personal catalogue as from the Nimrod Expedition there is nothing else to tie it to the expedition. Still an interesting artifact. 1907 Nimrod Expedition hardcover
