Section was full of supposition and POV interpretations, which I have removed. It is getting too late here to put references in, but will do another day if someone else doesn't put them in first. Please do not re-add POV suppositions.--Jeffro77 (talk) 14:22, 13 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for the more specific link. The document has more than one 'page 120'. I have corrected the reference to indicate that it is from volume 2. I have also now provided the correct year of publication for the correct volume.--Jeffro77 (talk) 05:12, 24 January 2016 (UTC)Reply
"after Nebuchadnezzar had already ruled for forty years, Nebuchadnezzar affirms" Can one of the names be replaced by "he" maybe? Seems a bit necessary to repeat?
Changed the second 'Nebuchadnezzar' to 'the king', the wording here has to be clear enough so that it is conveyed that the inscription refers to that Nebuchadnezzar had been divinely chosen, rather than Amel-Marduk. It is a strange inscription since Nebuchadnezzar wrote it so late in his reign. Ichthyovenator (talk) 19:27, 26 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
Perhaps worth mentioning in the intro that he may have restored temples, as little else is known about him?
Added that he did some building work. We don't actually know if he did restore any temples, only that he said that he did. For whatever reason it wasn't uncommon in Mesopotamian royal inscriptions to refer to future building work in the past tense. Ichthyovenator (talk) 19:27, 26 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
"17th-century portraits of Amel-Marduk ('Evilmerodach') and Neriglissar ('Nerigolossor')" Add "and his successor"?
