Aramaic Ritual Texts from Persepolis

Bowman, Raymond A.
Summary: The volume contains Raymond Bowman's edition of the Aramaic texts from Persepolis, unearthed during the expedition by the University of Chicago under Erich F. Schmidt between 1936 and 1938. Bowman has assembled important data on the chronology of Persepolis during the first half of the fifth century b.c. from the personal names and official titles listed in the Aramaic texts. He shows acumen in attacking certain textual problems, and his commentary and introduction provide the scholar with information necessary for a proper understanding of this corpus of some two hundred brief, formulaic inscriptions written on various stone implements - mortars and pestles, plates and trays - found in the treasury at Persepolis.

Chuck Jones e-mails about the collection of which this is a part:

Two additional groups of digital facsimilies of important publications in Archaeology and Assyriology have appeared in recent days and are now indexed in Abzu. The first is another batch of ETANA Core Texts made available as part of a USAID grant to assist Iraqi universities to rebuild their archaeology programs and collections. Prof. Elizabeth Stone was the Principal Investigator for this grant, administered at Stony Brook University in New York State. (See also the SBL Forum entry at: http://www.sbl-site.org/Article.aspx?ArticleId=537). They are served to the public free of charge courtesy of ETANA. The second is a set of fifteen additional titles in the Oriental Institute's Electronic Publications Initiative.
