Cuneiform Texts from Babylonian Tablets, &C., in the British
CUNEIFORM TEXTS FROM BABYLONIAN TABLETS IN THE BRITISH MUSEUM PART XLV OLD-BABYLONIAN BUSINESS DOCUMENTS BY TH. G. PINCHES PUBLISHED BY THE TRUSTEES OF THE BRITISH MUSEUM LONDON 1964 © 1964 The Trustees of the British Museum Printed by Her Majesty's Stationery Office PREFACE All but one of the 122 texts published here are Old-Babylonian business, administrative, and legal documents. The single exception (No. 122) is apparently an Old-Babylonian incantation. As forecast in the Preface to Cuneiform Texts XLIV, the present volume makes available to students the remainder of the unpublished Pinches copies from the two 'Budge Collections,' Bu.88-5-12 and Bu.91-5-9, to accommodate which the traditional number of fifty plates has exceptionally been increased to fifty-four. Over one half of the texts are dated or can be assigned to a ruler and these have been arranged chronologically by reigns in the following order: first, the tablets bearing date-formulae; then, those mentioning the king in the oath-formula; finally, those men- tioning the king in the legend of a seal. No. 71, a tag of Samsu-Iluna, year 2, has, however, been grouped with other, undated tags on'plate XXXIII. The arrangement of the undated tablets (pls. XXXIV-LIV) has been determined by the needs of plate-setting. The reigns represented in our documents are: Bun-tah 'un-Ila of Sippar (No. 1; this is the envelope, with a slightly variant text, of the tablet published by Waterman, Business Documents, No. 33); Sumu-la-El (No. 2); Sabium (Nos. 3-5); Apil-Sin (Nos.6- 12); Sin-muballit (Nos.

Mesopotamian Year Names
Mesopotamian Year Names Neo-Sumerian and Old Babylonian Date Formulae prepared by Marcel Sigrist and Peter Damerow LIST OF KINGS The list of more than 2,000 year names which is made accessible here has been compiled as a tool for the dating of cuneiform tablets as well as for supporting historical studies on early bookkeeping techniques. This tool essentially consists of a collection of date formulae in administrative documents as they were used by the scribes in ancient Mesopotamia, and of computer generated indices for a quick identification of incomplete date formulae on damaged cuneiform tablets and of issues and events mentioned in these formulae. The collection covers presently the time period ● from the time of the empire of Sargon ● to the end of the dynasty of Babylon. Access is provided through ● a list of cities and kings, ● a list of words, ● a list of words of the English translation. According to the pupose of this compilation the data formulae as they are presented here do not quote specific texts but are often composite formulae based on several sources. Furthermore it was impossible to give always the numerous variants of some of the year names. In cases of doubt whether the given version adequately represents the textual evidence users should consult the references and the relevant publications on Mesopotamian year names. (A bibliography is currently in preparation and will soon be accessible here.) History of the project The preparation of this electronic tool is an outcome of an unusual and long-lasting cooperation between an assyiologist and an historian of science at intervals over a period of more than 10 years.

Mesopotamian Political History Into Distinct Halves. Thus the Old Baby
FOR FURTHER READING 109 Mesopotamian political history into distinct halves. Thus the Old Baby- lonian world is deeply rooted in the third millennium, while Kassite culture is more akin to the first. Potts, Daniel T. Mesopotamian Civilization: The Material Foundations. Ithaca, N.Y.: Cornell University Press, 1997. A useful collection of stand-alone essays covering features of Mesopotamian civilization often overlooked in other studies. Gives much attention to the written cuneiform sources while also updating and interacting with the perti- nent secondary literature. Roaf, Michael. Cultural Atlas of Mesopotamia and the Ancient Near East. New York: Facts on File, 1996. The best available atlas on ancient Mesopotamia. Also includes much discussion and treatment of relevant background information. Roux, Georges. Ancient Iraq. 3rd ed. London: Penguin, 1992. Written by a French medical doctor who subsequently became a scholar of ancient Mesopotamia in his own right and published articles in technical jour- nals. A comprehensive survey with an astounding sweep from Paleolithic times to the Sassanians (224–651 C.E.), this book is engag- ingly written and lucid. Its usefulness is still evident in its third edition since its original publication in 1964. Saggs, H. W. F. The Greatness That Was Babylon: A Survey of the Ancient Civilization of the Tigris-Euphrates Valley. 2nd ed. London: Sidgwick & Jackson, 1988. Originally published in 1962, this authoritative and comprehensive treatment covers Babylonian society, law and adminis- tration, trade and economics, religion, literature, and science, as well as providing an overview of political history. Abbreviated and more up-to-date treatment may be found in the author’s Babylonians (Berke- ley and Los Angeles: University of California Press, 2000).

Stealing the Enemy's Gods: an Exploration of the Phenomenon of Godnap in Ancient Western Asia
Stealing the Enemy‘s Gods: An Exploration of the Phenomenon of Godnap in Ancient Western Asia By Erika Diane Johnson A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Institute of Archaeology and Antiquity College of Arts and Law The University of Birmingham January 2011 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation.

Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. When an ancient Near Eastern city was besieged and looted the statues and cultic appurtenances of the gods were often confiscated by the conquerors. Their loss was more than a heavy blow to the defeated people: the statue was the god‘s representation on earth and watched over and protected the city so his abandonment of his city was thought to have a lasting devastating effect. From the point of view of the conqueror the statue could be used not only as a tool of intimidation but for bribery and a crude form of diplomacy and as propaganda for his might and glory. In this thesis the history of the phenomenon of godnap is explored for the first time and there is also an investigation of related problems in religion and cultural history.
