Mesopotamian Civilization -- Resources

inanna.gif (7894 bytes)There are many excellent Internet sites devoted to the study and research of Mesopotamian civilization. Perhaps the best starting point is ABZU: Regional Index - Mesopotamia, at the Oriental Institute, University of Chicago. Here you will find an index of resources for the study of ancient Mesopotamia, including the area under the control of the modern state of Iraq and parts of Iran, Syria and Turkey. The Oriental Institute also houses a Mesopotamian Gallery as part of its Virtual Museum. John Heise has created an excellent page on the Akkadian Language which should not be missed. At Indiana you will find a page dedicated to Medicine in Ancient Mesopotamia. See also Women in Ancient Mesopotamia, Architectural Marvels of Ancient Mesopotamia, and Ancient Tablets, Ancient Graves: Accessing Women's Lives in Mesopotamia.
