Zeitschrift fur Assyriologie und Vorderasiatische Archaologie

The Zeitschrift für Assyriologie und Vorderasiatische Archäologie publishes papers and reviews from the field of Ancient Eastern Philology (languages covered include Sumerian, Akkadian, Hittite, Hurrian, Elamite), and religious, legal, economic and social history, together with Middle Eastern archaeology and art history. The main geographical areas covered are Mesopotamia, Northern Syria, Anatolia, Ancient Armenia and Elam, i.e. areas in which cuneiform script was used at certain periods; some attention is also paid to more remote fringe areas. The period covered encompasses the fourth to first millenia B. C. The review section deals primarily with monographs; edited volumes and festschrifts mainly receive short reviews.
