摘要

ON THAT dreadful day in April 2003, some of the staff of the National Museum of Iraq met Lamia al-Gailani in the lobby. They were in such shock that they could not finish a sentence. Days after the American invasion, looters had got in and raided the place. They had rampaged unhindered for two days. Objects too heavy to carry had been smashed; about 15,000 pieces had been stolen. Even the ledgers and index cards on which the collection was catalogued-the record of the civilisations of Babylon, Assyria, Ur, Nineveh and Sumer, of mankind's first cities, empires and writings-lay torn and scattered everywhere. Among them the deputy director sat crying, his face buried in his hands.
