The battle of Til Tuba reliefs are among some of the great masterpieces of ancient Assyrian art. The movement and details are truly stunning. That said, the scenes actually being depicted are anything but easy on the eye.

Join curator Gareth Brereton as he walks you through the reliefs that once decorated the last great king of Assyria's royal palace.
WARNING: includes scenes of drowning, flaying and wearing your deceased leader's head as a necklace.

DOUBLE WARNING: includes scenes of extreme royal hat misplacement.
