Printed by courtesy of the US Geological Survey 6 THE ORIENTAL INSTITUTE oi.uchicago.edu INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION GIL J. STEIN On a visit to Chicago this year, the distinguished archaeologist Robert McC. Adams, former Director of the Oriental Institute (before going on to be Provost of the University of Chicago and later Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution), commented that in his view, the Oriental Institute is now embarking on its “second golden age.” As incoming director, the more I learn about the people and projects of the Oriental Institute, the more convinced I am that Bob Ad- ams’s assessment is absolutely correct. As documented in this year’s Annual Report, the range of Oriental Institute projects and the significance of this work of discovery are quite simply breathtaking. This unique research institute, eighty-three years old, continues to break new ground as a center for innovation and scholarship in the use of textual and archaeological data to reconstruct the ancient civilizations of Egypt, the Levant, Syria, Mesopotamia, and Iran. The central mission of the Oriental Institute is discovery. Oriental Institute scholars bring to life the richness of ancient civilizations through the exploration of ancient sites and landscapes, through the study of textual materials, through the recording and preservation of monuments, and through the development of fundamental research tools such as dictionaries designed to give scholars worldwide access to the written record of Mesopotamia, Anatolia, and Egypt. In each of these avenues of discovery, Oriental Institute researchers have con- sistently been at the cutting edge — most notably by applying advanced technology to the understanding of ancient civilizations. The cover art and the pages dividing each section of this Annual Report bring home this innovation and intellectual integration in a particularly striking way. The photographs are recently declassified CORONA intelligence satellite images, created in the 1960s and 1970s, showing archaeological sites in north Syria and southeast Anatolia. These provide an invalu- able tool to Oriental Institute researchers, enabling them to identify archaeological sites and settlement patterns from space, while also allowing them to reconstruct patterns of ancient land use for agriculture, herding, and trade. By integrating the satellite imagery with the results from excavations, archaeological survey, and the analysis of surviving cuneiform documents from relevant sites, it becomes possible to put together a completely new picture of how the ancient city states and empires of Mesopotamia and north Syria developed, functioned, and eventually collapsed. This entirely new interdisciplinary framework for reconstructing the past lies at the heart of a new Oriental Institute research unit with the wonderfully appropriate acronym of CAMEL — the Center for the Archaeology of the Middle

    The Politics of Security in Ninewa: Preventing an ISIS Resurgence in Northern Iraq Julie Ahn—Maeve Campbell—Pete Knoetgen Client: Office of Iraq Affairs, U.S. Department of State Harvard Kennedy School Faculty Advisor: Meghan O’Sullivan Policy Analysis Exercise Seminar Leader: Matthew Bunn May 7, 2018 This Policy Analysis Exercise reflects the views of the authors and should not be viewed as representing the views of the US Government, nor those of Harvard University or any of its faculty. Acknowledgements We would like to express our gratitude to the many people who helped us throughout the development, research, and drafting of this report. Our field work in Iraq would not have been possible without the help of Sherzad Khidhir. His willingness to connect us with in-country stakeholders significantly contributed to the breadth of our interviews. Those interviews were made possible by our fantastic translators, Lezan, Ehsan, and Younis, who ensured that we could capture critical information and the nuance of discussions. We also greatly appreciated the willingness of U.S. State Department officials, the soldiers of Operation Inherent Resolve, and our many other interview participants to provide us with their time and insights. Thanks to their assistance, we were able to gain a better grasp of this immensely complex topic. Throughout our research, we benefitted from consultations with numerous Harvard Kennedy School (HKS) faculty, as well as with individuals from the larger Harvard community. We would especially like to thank Harvard Business School Professor Kristin Fabbe and Razzaq al-Saiedi from the Harvard Humanitarian Initiative who both provided critical support to our project.

My wife and I were in Sedona Arizona last month and we went on a Full Moon hike at Sedona State Park. We started at the Visitors' Cen ter about an hour before sunset and were led by an experienced guide through the park and up to the top of a small mountain just before sunset. We were able to see the sun set behind the beautiful red rock mountains and then turn around 1 and watch the full moon rise in the east. It was spectacular and definitely an "ooh and aah" moment. One of the hikers was from the area and said "we see this all the time…" Well, that got me thinking. How many times do we do or see something all the time and not see the goo d in the moment? My learning from that comment is to try not to forget the awesomeness all around us and to recognize the good things that are happening.

  • Ninewa Governorate Profile March 2009
    Ninewa Governorate Profile March 2009 Overview Located in northern Iraq and bordering on Syria, Ninewa is Iraq’s third largest and second most populated governorate. The capital Mosul is Iraq’s third largest city. Sinjar, Telafar, Tilkaif, Al-Shikhan and Akre dis- tricts all have disputed boundaries with Dahuk. Al-Hamdaniya district has a disputed boundary with Erbil. Security worsened during the second half of 2008, with ethnic ten- sions leading to the displacement of 13,000 Christians from Mosul to surrounding areas. Although most of these families have returned and violence has decreased, the situation remains tense, particularly in Mosul city. Telafar, Sinjar, Al-Ba’aj and Hatra districts have among the worst rates of connection to the general water network in Iraq. All districts apart from Hatra have prolonged power cuts or are not connected to the general electricity network. Poverty is a significant problem in all districts except Al-Ba’aj.

Academic Editors: Chrissanthy Papadopoulou, Vangelis Economou and Hercules Sakkas Received: 23 October 2017; Accepted: 5 December 2017; Published: 7 December 2017 Abstract: Sera from 432 small ruminants (335 sheep and 97 goats) from 72 farms in Duhok Province, northern Iraq, were collected to investigate risk factors associated with brucellosis seropositivity. Serum samples were tested using the Rose Bengal test (RBT) and an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (iELISA). Using parallel interpretation, RBT and iELISA results showed that 31.7% (95% confidence interval (CI): 26.1, 36.3) of sheep and 34.0% (95% CI: 24.7, 44.3) of goats had antibodies against Brucella in the study area. A random-effects multivariable logistic regression model indicated that a higher chance of being seropositive (odds ratio (OR) = 1.7; 95% 1.4; 2.2) was associated with an increase in the age of animals.

The original intention was to publish the MS. which is referred to in Halliwell's Dictionary (Preface, p. xx) in the following terms : " No printed glossary of Isle of Wight provincialisms has yet appeared; but a very valuable one in MS., compiled by Captain Henry Smith, was most kindly placed at my disposal by his relative, Charles Eoach Smith, Esq., E.S.A. It has been fully used in the following pages."
