1- The relationship between the event and the characters has a significant impact on the continuous space-time through the moment, its permanence and movement in the artwork, as in the sample models (1, 2, 3, 4).
2- The movement and its rapid succession from the formal effects of the sculpture, contribute to the realization of temporality in the Assyrian sculpture, as in the samples (1, 2, 3, 4).
The researcher reached conclusions
- The environment surrounding the ancient Iraqi individual, with its concepts of strength, fertility and continuity, is linked with the concept of space-time and the mechanism of its intellectual, cultural and artistic treatments.
- The ability of the Assyrian artist in narrating the story through legend or through different artistic productions, and one of the narration mechanisms is the spatio-temporal vision of events within the narrative and narrative system.
