Quay Gate

Nineveh's western wall had seven (or eight) gates: the Quay Gate was the fourth gate from the northern city wall. The Neo-Assyrian king Sennacherib constructed it and gave it the Akkadian ceremonial name Mušēribat-miširti-dadmē, which means "The One Who Brings in Income from the Settlements."
