    Open AccessMatteo Giaccari, Licia Romano et al.ARTICLEJournal of Open Archaeology Data2025

    DATAMESOP is one of the first comprehensive isotopic datasets aimed at supporting bioarchaeological studies in ancient Mesopotamia. The dataset compiles radiogenic strontium and stable carbon, and oxygen isotope measurements from both archaeological (human and animal remains and plant and soil samples) and nonarchaeological sources (surface rocks, soil, dust, water, and rainwater) in South-West Asia. The data have been collected, ensuring the qua…

  • The paleoenvironment and depositional context of the Sumerian site of Abu Tbeirah (Nasiriyah, southern Mesopotamia, Iraq)

    Open AccessLuca Forti, Licia Romano et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Research2022

    The Sumerian culture flourished within the Tigris and Euphrates rivers floodplains and along their deltaic systems, which ca. 6000 yr were located ~250–260 km inland from the present Persian Gulf. Here, large floodplains and marshes were crossed by an intricate network of channels where several human settlements developed. In this paper, we describe in detail the paleoenvironmental context where the site of Abu Tbeirah (third millennium BC) devel…

  • Due bilanci di entrate e uscite di argento da Umma

    Franco D’Agostino, Francesco PomponioARTICLEZeitschrift für Assyriologie und…2005

    In this article we publish two silver balanced accounts from Umma, very different from those till now known. They record amounts of silver received by the Fiscal Office of Umma, but only a part of this silver was used to meet Umma administration’s needs, while the large majority of it was transferred to the capitals of the empire, to Ur or to Nippur. The silver amounts which constitute the “capital” of the two accounts derive from almost every ty…
