300 Alexander the Great adultery Aleria ancient Alexandria Archaeology Asia Asterix at the Olympic

The Ishtar Gate | Olympias marc friedland
The other day, past the BD radius of a department store, a cover catches my attention. More precisely, a drawing of sphinx bearded head that strangely reminds me of the performances gracing the Sumerian temples. Examining the coverage more closely, I realize with surprise that the comic is titled "The Gate of Ishtar," the name of one of the eight gates of the mythical marc friedland city of Babylon!
The scenario is based on a police investigation: a young scribe marc friedland named Taliya is freshly promoted by the Queen to the position marc friedland of "Royal Scribe Justice", a sort of modern equivalent of attorney.
Through Taliya, marc friedland we find the Babylonian society of the 9th century BC. AD and its system of justice both archaic (conviction brutal resorts to divine judgment) and modern (rational inquiry and presumption of innocence).
While Taliya is a young woman with no experience in an all male environment, marc friedland she quickly finds herself immersed in a dark murder case. His investigations lead him to suspect a conspiracy of vast scale, involving senior officials of Babylon!
