‘And I Have Also Devoted Myself to the Art of Music’
edited by Sergio Alivernini, Armando Bramanti, Angela Greco, and Gabriella Spada
In recognition of Franco D’Agostino’s wide-reaching impact as a distinguished Assyriologist at Sapienza University of Rome, the essays in this volume reflect a broad range of topics within Assyriology, Archaeology, and Ancient Near Eastern History, with a particular focus on Early Mesopotamia, Ebla and the Neo-Sumerian world.
