Oxbow says: These nine essays, taken from the Acts of the
International Colloquium held at the Maison de l'Orient et de la
Mediterranee at Lyon in 2002, examine the subject of medicine and
doctors in the texts of the ancient Near East. Subjects include
images of birth in Mesopotamia, the human body and sexuality in
Babylonian medical texts, skeletal markers of task activities in
the Iron Age human remains from Tell Mishrife in central Syria, the
treatment of illness in Babylonia, the digestion of food,
palaeopathological approaches, healers at the Neo-Assyrian court,
and the vocabulary used to describe the dead.
