Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The important corpus of Neo-Assyrian political and administrative letters discovered in ancient Calah (present-day Nimrud) by Sir Max Mallowan in the early 1950s has been partially accessible to Assyriologists in marvellous hand-copies and preliminary transliterations and translations since 1955, thanks to the pioneering efforts of the late H. W. F. Saggs. Nevertheless, his long-awaited edition of the entire corpus, which appeared in 2001, left a great deal of room for improvement. This critical edition, based on careful study of the originals in the British Museum and the historical background of the letters, clarifies a host of problems and details pertinent to the reign of Tiglath-Pileser III in particular, and for the first time makes this extraordinary collection of letters completely accessible to the historian.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The State Archives of Assyria series was conceived in 1985 to make all texts from the royal archives of Nineveh available to both scholarly and lay audiences in the form of critical text editions. After thirty-seven years and twenty-two published volumes, the series has grown into an indispensable research tool and an inexhaustible source of information on the Neo-Assyrian Empire.The present volume concludes the series and makes available about three hundred further texts from the royal archives discovered or identified after the publication of the appropriate SAA volumes or inadvertently omitted from them. The supplementary texts include letters to the king from scholars, diviners, priests, and governors; oracle queries; treaties; and literary, legal, and administrative texts. Although the new texts are predominantly fragmentary, the volume also contains many long and well-preserved texts as well as numerous joins to previously published tablets.

Hardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. 163 pages : 30 cm. Summary:Among the most important sources for understanding the cultures and systems of thought of ancient Mesopotamia is a large body of magical and medical texts written in the Sumerian and Akkadian languages. An especially significant branch of this literature centres upon witchcraft. Mesopotamian anti-witchcraft rituals and incantations attribute ill-health and misfortune to the magic machinations of witches and prescribe ceremonies, devices, and treatments for dispelling witchcraft, destroying the witch, and protecting and curing the patient. The Corpus of Mesopotamian Anti-Witchcraft Rituals aims to present a reconstruction of this body of texts; it provides critical editions of the relevant rituals and prescriptions based on the study of the cuneiform tablets and fragments recovered from the libraries of ancient Mesopotamia. Contents: Preliminary Material INTRODUCTION LOGOGRAMS AND THEIR READINGS AKKADIAN GLOSSARY SUMERIAN GLOSSARY PERSONAL NAMES.…
