Description

Akkadian ritual texts in mesopotamia [akkadian ritual texts is the first volume of an anticipated two-volume publication that highlights the performance and practice of ritual in ancient mesopotamia (CA. 2350?200 BCE) as documented in cuneiform writing. Each ritual text edition includes an introduction to the historical significance of the text and ritual, while a subsequent discussion of the materiality of the tablets invites readers to think additionally about texts as products of writing, and descriptions of the ritual performances highlight various theories from the field of ritual studies. As a whole, the publication is intended to move beyond the presentation of ritual texts narrowly defined and to present a broad spectrum of evidence that informs US about the origins, performance, functions, meanings, and particular settings of the rituals known from the ancient near east.]
