Geographical Names according to the Neo-Assyrian Texts

历史地理学是重建古代近东历史的最重要学科之一。主要有楔形文字来源，这打开了获取众多已证明的地名的途径。已将大量地名和河流名称汇编成一套注释数据，即编撰在《文献学》丛书中。到目前为止，已出版了14卷，按时间和区域标准编排(1974-2007年)。从该系列的最后一卷更广泛的卷(RGTC 7)，它应该包括地名(约。3450)的新亚述文本(第10-7美分。公元前)，直到现在只出现了第一部分，其中包含了黎凡特的地理名称(约。450)，并于2007年由申请人出版(RGTC 7/1)。本项目的目的是收集、研究和出版地名(约3000)新亚述帝国的剩余地区。这部作品的概念和结构遵循了以前的RGTC-VOLUES。这项研究将按地理区域进行，分为两部分和相应的单独出版物：第一部分将包括埃及、亚述心脏地带及其邻近地区(RGTC 7/2)，第二部分将包括东部地区和巴比伦(RGTC 7/3)。

Historical geography is one of the most important disciplines which allow a reconstruction of the history of the Ancient Near East. There are principally the cuneiform sources which open the access to the numerous attested geographical names. A large number of place and river names has been compiled in a commented collection of data, namely in the series Répertoire Géographique des Textes Cunéiformes (RGTC). Up to now, 14 volumes, which are organized after chronological and regional criteria, were published (1974-2007). From the last and more extensive volume of the series (RGTC 7), which should comprise the geographical names (approx. 3450) of the Neo-Assyrian texts (10th-7th cent. B.C.), appeared up to the present only the first part, which contains the geographical names of the Levant (approx. 450) and was published by the applicant in 2007 (RGTC 7/1). The aim of the present project is the collection, study and publication of the geographical names (approx. 3000) of the remaining regions of the Neo-Assyrian empire. The conception and structure of the work follow that of former RGTC-volumes. The study will be undertaken by geographical regions and is divided into two parts with the corresponding separate publications: the first one will comprise Egypt, the Assyrian heartland and its neighbouring areas (RGTC 7/2) and the second one the eastern regions and Babylonia (RGTC 7/3).
