Step Gate of the Armory
Nineveh's western wall had seven (or eight) gates: the Armory Gate (later Step Gate of the Armory) was the fifth gate from the northern city wall. The Neo-Assyrian king Sennacherib constructed it and gave it the Akkadian ceremonial names Pāqidat-kalāma ("The One Who Regulates Everything") and Lū-dāri-bānûša ("May Its Builder Live Forever").
