That palace, which went by the Sumerian name Elugalumunkurkurra (“House of the King, Lord of the Lands”), covered an area of about 27000 m². After Tukultī-Ninurta I’s reign, the so-called “New Palace” was no longer maintained and, thus, fell into ruins.35.458034 43.257987 35.456859 43.256115 35.457957 43.254435 35.459612 43.255547 35.458034 43.257987
