Sarchedon: A Legend of the Great Queen

The Great Queen is the historical Assyrian queen Shammuramat (9th century BCE), or the legendary queen Semiramis. --various library records name the one or the other "Nearly every stupendous work of antiquity by the Euphrates or in Iran seems to have ultimately been ascribed to her ... Herodotus ascribes to her the artificial banks that confined the Euphrates and knows her name as borne by a gate of Babylon." --Wikipedia, "Semiramis" (linked above; Wikipedia does not cover the novel)
