The Weapon of Marduk Has Been Placed
King Like a Horned Viper
Two tablets from the the Michael C. Carlos Museum at Emory University contain excerpts of literary texts celebrating Šulgi: an excerpt of the praise poem Šulgi A, with two previously unknown lines, and a manuscript from a new hymn to Šulgi, paralleling Ni 13227
A Literary Topos of Abundance
This study analyses a literary topos concerning the abundance of natural phenomena, including fresh water, reed beds and fish. The standardised sequence listing such abundant natural features occurs in two previously unpublished tablets containing Emesal prayers concerning the god Enki, published in this article. The Old Babylonian tablet, of unknown provenance, attests to a unique composition. The tablet from Late Babylonian Ur, which is partial…

But this is to pres…

Ensuring the survival of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander languages into the 21st century
There were over 200 distinct languages in Australia at the time of European settlement. Today less than 40 of these are still being passed on to new generations, and all of these are under threat of extinction. Aboriginal people are struggling to adapt themselves to the massive European presence without losing their identity. The greatest threat to Aboriginal languages is the physical, economic and social situation in which their speakers find th…
