Kommentar

This course is an introduction to Late Uruk notational practices, including sealing practices, bullae and tablet formation, and writing techniques, including both proto-cuneiform and proto-Elamite. No previous knowledge of any ancient language or writing system is presupposed or required. This course also serves as the lab or Methodenübung for “Notation and Metapragmatic Awareness,” and we strongly encourage students to enroll in both courses as a single module. This course will be taught in English, 2 hours per week. Schließen
