The monumental obelisk was erected in Nimrud's central square just before Shalmaneser III's demise. It meticulously records the king's military campaigns, showcasing tributes brought from all corners of the empire, clearly identified by accompanying captions. The places that contributed to the tribute are listed from top to bottom: 1. Gilzanu, a region in western Iran, 2. Jehu, the reigning monarch of Israel, 3. Musri, likely situated in eastern Iran, 4. Suhi, located on the Middle Euphrates River, and 5. Patina, nestled in southern Turkey. The stone itself is a high-quality black limestone with fine grain, streaked with white veins.
