This comprehensive collection of primary texts and secondary literature assembles the best in Near Eastern scholarship from professors at The Hebrew University in Jerusalem. Combining primary texts, English translations, and expert commentary and analysis, the 9-volume Near Eastern History Collection brings the latest scholarship to bear on the history, geography, and culture of the birthplace of civilization. These important books from Magnes Press include textual artifacts and translations of Ugaritic literature, Aramaic ostraca, and Aramaic amulets, along with translation and commentary. This collection also contains penetrating studies of place-names, a fascinating history of the alphabet, and a complete introduction to art in Ancient Palestine. It also includes a volume of over thirty essays, whose topics span the entire range of Near Eastern history from Sumer to the Persian Empire.

Ah, Assyria . . . Studies in Assyrian History contains 30 essays on ancient Near Eastern history and historiography, spanning the entire range of Mesopotamian history, from Sumer to the Persian Empire. Contributors investigate previously unpublished texts for the first time and reexamine longstanding works with fresh eyes.

The literary documentation on southern Palestine at the end of the Persian period and the beginning of the Hellenistic period is very poor. Hence recently discovered Aramaic ostraca data 361–311 BC are the almost exclusive source for the study of the ethnic structure and the economic life in the period under discussion.
