Which site is the Palace of Sargon II and is located in Khorsabad, Iraq?
Correct Answer:
Palace of Sargon II
Explanation:
Identify an iconic ancient palace and its location. The Palace of Sargon II was built by King Sargon II as his capital at Dur-Sharrukin, which is the site of Khorsabad in present-day Iraq. This palace complex is a hallmark of Neo-Assyrian imperial architecture, famous for its grand gateways, protective lamassu figures, and extensive administrative spaces that reflect the king’s power and organization of the empire. The other sites listed are not in Iraq and are unrelated to Khorsabad—one is in Tournus, another in Cordoba, and another near Paris. So the palace that sits at Khorsabad, the Palace of Sargon II, is the correct association.
