Most documents found in the Northwest Palace, built by the Assyrian king Ashurnarsipal II (883–859 BC), predate the move of the new Assyrian capital to Dur-Šarrukin under Sargon II (721–705 BC). Fourteen clay tablets and sealings, dating from 719 to 715 BC, were found in Room HH, in the southeastern part of the palace.
