Abstract:
Examining the Ancient Middle East through the lens of cuneiform writing, the contributors explore, define, and to some extent look beyond the boundaries of the written word, using Mesopotamia's clay tablets and stone inscriptions not just as 'texts' but also as material artefacts that offer much additional information about their creators, readers, users and owners.
