The Origin of the Name of Ashgabat Library
Ashgabat Library was named after Ashgabat, king of Assyria, who was the last king of Assyria and ruled from 668 BC to 627 BC. He calls himself "the great and wise king of the world". When he was in office, he not only reached the limit of Assyrian empire, but also was a king who respected culture, learned a lot and was obsessed with books. On a clay tablet in the ruins of the library, Azubani said, "I, Asubani, inspired by the wisdom god of Naboo, feel it necessary to read widely." I can learn the skills of shooting, conquering and governing the country from it. ..... Reading can not only expand knowledge and skills, but also cultivate noble bearing. "Therefore, during his reign, the famous Ashgabat Library was built in Nineveh, the ancient capital.
