The Archive of Mesopotamian Archaeological Reports (AMAR) collection is under development as part of the Iraq Cultural Heritage Program Grant. The Iraq Cultural Heritage Project (ICHP) was established in 2008 through a grant from the US Embassy Baghdad. The Cultural Affairs Office at the Embassy oversees the project. International Relief and Development (IRD), a US-based non-governmental organization, implements the project for the Embassy.

The project director, Elizabeth Stone, has directed archaeological excavations in Iraq, has been engaged in advanced training for Iraqi archaeologists and has attempted to document and stem the damage to Iraq's archaeological sites. Dr. Stone is collaborating with the University Libraries at Stony Brook University to make the AMAR collection available online. Before developing this online collection, she contributed more than one hundred digitized volumes to the ETANA website. 

The aim of the AMAR project is to digitize 500 archaeological site reports describing archaeological excavations both in Iraq and in the immediately surrounding areas (Turkey, Syria, Iran and the Gulf). This will include both out-of-copyright as well as in-copyright and in-print materials. This online collection is intended to provide basic sources of information to our colleagues in Iraq, and also other archaeologists working in the Middle East. 

The electronic files are only to be distributed from the AMAR Web site. 

Individuals, libraries, institutions, and others may download one complimentary copy for their own personal use. Links to the AMAR Web site are welcomed.

Levantine Epigraphy and History in the Achaemenid Period

SCHWEICH LECTURES ON BIBLICAL ARCHAEOLOGY

Professor André Lemaire, École Pratique des Hautes Études

Tuesday 25 June, Wednesday 26 June and Thursday 27 June 2013, 6.00pm
The British Academy, 10-11 Carlton House Terrace, London SW1Y 5AH
The Achaemenid period in the Levant is generally considered an obscure part of history. However, since 1980, epigraphic discoveries and research have thrown new light on this period.  A variety of aspects will be presented across three evening lectures on this subject.

Tuesday 25 June 2013
Levantine Epigraphy and Phoenicia: the kingdoms of Byblos, Sidon and Tyre during the Achaemenid period

The Persian “king of kings” had to rely on the Phoenician navy in his wars against Greece in the Eastern Mediterranean and Phoenicia played the most important part in the satrapy of ‘Avar-Nahara. Since 1980, the dates of important royal Sidonian inscriptions have been revised and various new inscriptions from Byblos, Sidon and Tyre as well as new numismatic studies have been published. They shed new light on the history and extent of the Phoenician kingdoms, especially on their relations with Palestine.

Wednesday 26 June 2013West Semitic Epigraphy and the Judean Diaspora during the Achaemenid Period: Babylonia, Egypt, Cyprus

According to the Biblical texts Kings and Jeremiah, after the fall of Jerusalem, King Nebuchadnezzar deported part of the Judean population to Babylonia while other Judeans took refuge in Egypt. Apart from in the book of Ezekiel, the Bible does not tell us much about their life there. New epigraphic data can now reveal how the Judean refugees’ lived.

Levantine epigraphy and Samaria, Judaea and Idumaea during the Achaemenid period

The historical interpretation of the Biblical books of Ezra and Nehemiah is much debated and these books essentially concern Jerusalem and Judea. The publication of various – mainly Aramaic – contemporary inscriptions (papyri, ostraca, seals, seal-impressions, coins etc) sheds new light on the daily life and religion of the Persian provinces of Samaria, Judaea and Idumaea, especially during the 4th c. BCE. They help us to understand several Biblical texts in their historical and economical context.

Upper Greater Zab Archaeological Reconnaissance (UGZAR) Project is the name for field activities (archaeological survey) aimed at recording of the prehistoric and historic period sites located in Iraqi Kurdistan, on both sides of Greater Zab river (MAP 1). Research on the evidence gathered during the field-work will aim at preparing a full catalogue of archaeological sites located within the limits of the project area, from the Paleolithic to Late Middle Ages period. These data will be used for reconstruction of the settlement trend and the settlement history of the area. After the termination of the project the data will be transferred to local authorities to allow for a more efficient protection and management of the archaeological heritage of Kurdistan.

The Polish Centre of Mediterranean Archaeology of the University of Warsaw (PCMA), in Polish Centrum Archeologii Śródziemnomorskiej im. Kazimierza Michałowskiego UW, is dedicated to the organization and coordination of archaeological research, both excavations and study projects, as well as conservation, reconstruction and restoration projects, in northeastern Africa, the Middle East and Cyprus (this currently concerns Egypt, Sudan, Cyprus, Syria, Lebanon, Iran and Kuwait).

Projects include sites covering a broad chronological spectrum from the dawn of civilization (prehistoric times) through all the historic periods of the ancient Mediterranean civilizations to Late Antiquity and Early Islam.

The research is carried out by Polish scholars representing different research institutes nationwide, frequently in association with foreign and international institutions. The Polish Centre also organizes and supports the participation of Polish specialists in international salvage projects (in Egypt, Sudan, Syria and Lebanon to date).

The tasks of the Polish Centre include comprehensive documentation of finds, archives management and publication of the results in keeping with international research standards.Separately the Centre undertakes steps to popularize the results of its activities among the Polish public in general.

中國傳統類書資料庫

計劃簡介

　　中國傳統類書常被用為工具書。類書乃為前人匯集當時傳世文獻資料，依類區分，重新排列編纂之典籍。及唐、宋兩朝，編撰類書蔚然成風，著名類書如《北堂 書鈔》、《藝文類聚》、《太平御覽》、《初學記》等相繼編成付梓。漢達資料庫收錄先秦兩漢及魏晉南北朝一切傳世文獻資料庫，然而部份佚書、佚文則未見采 錄。此等佚書、佚文，可以借助類書引文重新蒐集。「香港研究資助局」於二零零零年撥款資助本研究計劃，旨在全面整理傳世類書，建立完整之類書電子資料庫， 其目的有二﹕一) 建立一完整之類書電子資料庫，方便學者利用類書引文進行研究工作。二)將類書引文與傳世古文獻文本進行對比研究，探求類書引文與傳世文本之異同。有關之比 對研究，可以概略分為三方面說明：一）首先，就相同文獻資料，以現存最早之類書引文與今本文獻對比，分析今本文獻與引文之異同。二）其次，經過對比研究， 蒐集同一文獻之異文，據此探求文本原貌。三）最後，就類書所引而又不見今本者，列為佚文，重新編排收錄，進行有系統之文獻輯佚工作。部份類書預計於二零零 四年開始上網。

A Computerized Database of the Entire Body of
Extant Chinese Encyclopedias (Leishu)

Project Summary

　　Chinese Encyclopedias (Leishu) are reference books consisting of extracts from sources extant at the time of compilation which were put under different categories. By the time of the Tang and Song dynasties, the compilation of Leishu became fashionable, and well-known examples of them survive in the present day, for instance, Beitong Shuchao, Yiwen Leiju, Taiping Yulan, Chuxueji. The CHANT Database contains the entire corpus of traditional Chinese texts down to the sixth century, but some missing titles/passages are still to be found in the form of citations in various Leishu. The Research Grants Council of the Hong Kong Government funded this project in 2000. The objectives of this study are: i) to build up a computerized database of extant Leishu. ii) to make a comparative study of citations appearing in Leishu and the CHANT Database. Regarding the comparative study, there are three tasks we set ourselves. First, by comparing the earliest citations with extant versions, we hope to be able to correct textual mistakes wherever they occur. Second, we would make an analysis of the variant readings through textual comparison. In this way, we can get closer to the texts as they were in their original form, which may differ significantly from extant versions. Third, we are able to identify all texts which are not found in extant editions so that such missing parts can be culled and re-constituted for purposes of textual studies. We estimated that some of the Leishu could be available online in 2004.

Welcome to the Open Access page of CSPS, provided as part of our mission to disseminate new research on Sparta and the Peloponnese. 


Here you will find the published versions of selected papers delivered at our international conferences – they have all been through a process of peer review and editing. 


We very much hope you will find them useful and we encourage you to pass on the link to other scholars.
