THE FOES OF NARAM-SIN

Naram-Sin is by far the most prominent figuremuch taller than his disciplined soldiers marching up the mountain below him. As he tramples over one of his fallen enemies others beg for mercy (note the one with a broken spear). They have good reason to fear himhe has kicked one off the mountain and rammed a spear through another's neck as a possible sacrifice to the gods (represented by the star-like figures) above him. [Naram-Sin is the partial figure in the upper left portion of the image.]
