Identity and history
Nimrud relates to ancient Assyrian Kalhu outside Mosul. Palaces, reliefs and excavation evidence illuminate kingship, ceremony and urban organisation. Objects may be held elsewhere, so museum images are not automatically visible in-situ remains. Its identity differs from Nineveh.
