Description
The present work is the last contribution to the series “Repertoire Geographique des Textes Cuneiformes” (RGTC). Thirteen volumes are already published on this series and became – at the side of the corresponding TAVO-historical maps – crucial research tool in the field of the historical geography of the Ancient Near East. This volume presents the place names from the Neo-Assyrian period in two parts. The first volume (RGTC 7/1) accommodates the toponyms from the Levant. The second one volume (RGTC 7/2), now in preparation, includes the place names from the remaining regions, namely the northern, southern and eastern regions, in addition to from Egypt and the Assyrian heartland. Even supposing the arrangement of earlier volumes used to be followed, the critical statement of the secondary literature demands a more extensive remedy on this volume.
