In a previous report we summarized the results of excavations undertaken by the Directorate-General of Antiquities at the site known as ‘Aqar Qūf during a short preliminary season in 1942 and again from February to March in 1943. During the whole of this time work was restricted to the temple area in the vicinity of the ruined ziggurrat. Excavating was resumed at the beginning of October 1943, and the third season lasted until February 10th, 1944. The field staff remained almost unchanged from the previous season and consisted of Taha Baqir, M.A., Curator of the Iraq Museum, as field-director, Mohammed Ali Mustafa, architect, Ata Sabri, registrar, and Izeddin Sanduq, assistant surveyor. Most of the excellent photographs were taken by the Department's photographer, Antran Ivan. As before, excavations were conducted under the guidance of Mr. Seton Lloyd, F.S.A., Technical Adviser to the Directorate-General.
