Berger referred to 52 bricks with the same text as our three bricks. C.B.F. Walker listed 94 bricks in British Museums, most of which were not referred to by Berger.

The bricks are stamped with an inscription of Nebuchadnezzar II, who was king of the Neo-Babylonian or Chaldean Empire 604-562 BC. P.-R. Berger referred to 52 bricks with the same text as our three bricks. C.B.F. Walker listed 94 bricks in British Museums, most of which were not referred to by Berger. Most of the bricks are from Babylon, but a few are reported to have been found in Isin, Kish, Seleucia on Tigris, Susa and Tell ed-Der. Two of our bricks (Nos. 4 and 5) are reported to have come from a wall in the north- eastern part of the south palace in Babylon. There is a good chance that the other brick (No. 3) may be from the same building, but that cannot be proven. The cuneiform script on our clay bricks is archaised written like Old Babylonian inscriptions.Translation: “Nebuchadnezzar (II), king of Babylon, provider for (the temples) Esagil and Ezida, the foremost son of Nabopolassar, king of Babylon”

From the collections of King Carl XVI Gustaf, donated 1981.Ambassador Carl Bergenstråhle (1909-1977) donated three bricks to the Medelhavsmuseet in 1976. He purchased them when he served as secretary of Swedish legation in Teheran in 1940. When he donated them to the Medelhavsmuseet, he claimed that they came from a wall in the northeastern part of the south palace in Babylon where R. Koldewey assumed that the “hanging gardens” were situated. This information is probably correct for two of the bricks (MM 1977:23b and MM 1977:23c). However, the third brick (MM 1977:23a) seems to be from Choga Zanbil in western Iran
