介绍（中）	这件小贝壳是在尼姆鲁德的阿舒尔纳西尔帕尔二世西北宫殿的一口井中发现的，还有其他类似的贝壳装饰品，其中一些也在大都会博物馆的收藏中（54.117.16，.19）。他们可能在公元前614年宫殿被洗劫时被扔进井里，两年后又被扔进了井里。它们可以被识别为马的装饰物，并且可能是在井泥中分解的皮革马具的一部分。Dur Sharrukin（现代Khorsabad）萨尔贡二世宫殿浮雕中的马匹在缰绳上用双扇形装饰品表示，如大都会博物馆的浮雕（33.16.1）显示马夫和两匹马。由于与杜尔沙鲁金宫殿的浮雕非常相似，这口井的马术马具元素可能可以追溯到公元前八世纪后期的萨尔贡时代。此时，西北宫主要用于储存，而不是作为皇家住所。
介绍（英）	This small shell piece was found in a well in the Northwest Palace of Ashurnasirpal II at Nimrud, together with other similar shell ornaments, several of which are also in the Metropolitan Museum’s collection (54.117.16, .19). They were probably thrown into the well when the palace was sacked, in 614 B.C. and then again two years later. They can be identified as horse trappings, and were probably part of a leather harness which disintegrated in the well sludge. Horses in the reliefs of the palace of Sargon II at Dur Sharrukin (modern Khorsabad) are represented with double-fan shaped ornaments on their bridles, as in a relief in the Metropolitan Museum (33.16.1) showing a groom with two horses. Because of the close parallel with the reliefs from the palace at Dur Sharrukin, the equestrian harness elements from this well probably date to the time of Sargon in the late eighth century B.C. At this time, the Northwest Palace was primarily used for storage rather than as a royal residence.
