Unfortunately, I have not been including archaeological sites that don't at least have some recognizable ruins or mound in Google Maps. From what I can see in your link to my map, this site does not make the threshold. Sorry.

that is unfortunate. it is the largest roundel in europe i believe.

there are sites like vinga that have had many "refreshes". unfortunately many sites are disappearing. around here we haven't even had 1 hi res bestowed on us yet and they get 4 or 5.

This is not Nineveh. Rather it is the ancient citadel in the city of Erbil (Hewler) of the Kurdish People.
