  • New Insights on the Role of Environmental Dynamics Shaping Southern Mesopotamia

    Open AccessMark Altaweel, Anke Marsh et al.ARTICLEIraq2019

    Recent fieldwork and archival sedimentary materials from southern Iraq have revealed new insights into the environment that shaped southern Mesopotamia from the pre-Ubaid (early Holocene) until the early Islamic period. These data have been combined with northern Iraqi speleothem, or stalagmite, data that have revealed relevant palaeoclimate information. The new results are investigated in light of textual sources and satellite remote sensing wor…

  • Culture as Afterthought

    Mcguire GibsonARTICLEConservation and Management of…2009

    The devastation of cultural heritage in the 2003 war, epitomised by the looting of the Iraq National Museum, was almost universal. Institutes of art, music, dance, theatre, folklore, crafts, etc., were looted as thoroughly as the museums in Baghdad, Mosul and Babylon. The minor effort at planning for heritage protection, carried out as part of the Future of Iraq Project in the US State Department, had little or no effect since all the efforts of …

  • First Season of Syrian-American Investigations at Hamoukar, Hasekeh Province

    Mcguire Gibson, Muhammad Maktash et al.ARTICLEIraq2002

    In 1999, the joint expedition of the Syrian Directorate General of Antiquities and the Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago initiated excavations and surface reconnaissance at the site of Tell Hamoukar in the northeastern corner of Hassekeh Province (Figs. 1–2). We need to acknowledge, with gratitude, the help and encouragement rendered by Dr Sultan Muhesen, then Director General of Antiquities, and by Sayyid Abdul Messieh Bagdo, of th…

  • The City Walls of Nippur and an Islamic Site beyond

    Mcguire Gibson, James A Armstrong et al.ARTICLEIraq1998

    During the Oriental Institute's seventeenth season of excavation at Nippur (1987), major new information was gathered on the history of the city walls. In addition, we investigated a recently discovered small Islamic site a short distance beyond the north-eastern city wall.The expedition arrived in Iraq in late September and began excavation on October 10. The digging ended on December 12. The staff consisted of McGuire Gibson as director, Sayyid…

  • The Early Dynastic-Akkadian transition, Part 2. The authors' response

    Open AccessMcguire Gibson, Anthony Mcmahon et al.ARTICLEIraq1997

    Dr Matthews was kind enough to show us a draft of the preceding article before publication so that we could reply, for which we thank him. Our original article was intended as a review of the problem of the Early Dynastic to Akkadian transition and as a quick general overview of the WF excavation at Nippur, rather than the final statement on either. The point of the article was not to define the Akkadian Period but to make steps towards the ident…

  • Investigation of the Early Dynastic-Akkadian Transition

    Mcguire Gibson, Anthony Mcmahon et al.ARTICLEIraq1995

    The Akkadian Period has not received the archaeological attention it deserves, despite its great historical and artistic importance. Excavated remains from the period have been more extensively reported from Syria, at such sites as Tell Brak, than from the core area of southern Iraq. The artifactual assemblage is still ill-defined, in part due to delays in the final publication of crucial excavations, including our own work at Umm al-Hafriyat and…

  • The Archaeological Uses of Cuneiform Documents

    Mcguire GibsonARTICLEIraq1972

    It may be said for most Mesopotamian excavations that information contained in cuneiform documents has not been fully used to give cultural elaboration to the bare outline derived from architecture, artefacts, etc. In the era of large expeditions, ending in the 1930's, texts would often be collected, turned over to an epigrapher, and published separately from the main archaeological report. Most often, the epigraphic volume would contain little o…
