MESOPOTAMIA

The first volume of a new series titled Archacologia Mundi which will attempt to fill in the picture of archaeological research throughout the world and to draw the portrait of a science that is still apt to be misunderstood."" The study of Mesopotamia provides, according to the author, ""a first class example of the way in which archaeology has advanced historical studies, both in supplying fresh written sources and in revealing unknown perspectives of the first ages of civilization."" The text is compact, almost an accompaniment to the photographs, many in color of fine quality, depicting artifacts.
