Film of Archaeological Excavations at Nippur, Iraq, 1948-1950

The following pieces of film are of the Nippur excavations, first and second seasons after WWII: 1948/1949, 1949/1950. They are from the University of Pennsylvania Museum Archives and are published online by them via the Internet Archive. University of Pennsylvania Museum Archive have a number of other films accessible there as well. Unfortunately these three sequences are incorrectly identified as "(Tell Billa) (1935 circa)".

The material excavated during these two seasons forms the core of the publication Nippur I, which is available online free-of-charge courtesy of the Oriental Institute Electronic Publications Initiative.

If you have knowledge of the persons included in the films, please annotate in the comments below.
