In this book, Jamie Novotny and Joshua Jeffers provide updated,
reliable editions of seventy-one historical inscriptions of
Ashurbanipal, including all historical inscriptions on clay prisms,
clay cylinders, wall slabs, and other stone objects from Nineveh,
Assur, and Kalhu. Each text edition is accompanied by an English
translation, a catalog of all exemplars, a comprehensive
bibliography, and commentary containing notes and technical
information. This volume also contains a general introduction to
the reign of Ashurbanipal, his military campaigns, the corpus of
inscriptions, previous studies, and chronology; translations of the
relevant passages of several Mesopotamian chronicles and king
lists; photographs of objects inscribed with texts of Ashurbanipal;
indexes of museum and excavation numbers, selected publications,
and proper names. This reference work represents a significant
revision of previously published collections and also makes
available a number of unpublished inscriptions. It will be
invaluable to specialists in royal inscriptions and will be of
interest to all scholars of the history and archaeology of the
Ancient Near East.
