The Archaeological Research on the 2nd Millennium B.C. in Mesopotamia

为了建立一个公元前2千年的美索不达米亚编年史，根据实际上来自地层发掘的考古证据，我们在慕尼黑举行了第一次和第二次会议（1987-1988）。1987年第一次会议考察了日本和德国探险队在伊拉克北部发掘的Tell Jigan和Tall Hamad阿加as-Sagir的地层学证据，决定解决许多问题，首先是重建北方美索不达米亚年代学;在1988年的第二次会议上，我们为找到解决问题的最佳方案进行了辩论。除了第三次会议外，我们还在1989年举行了一次专题讨论会，以整合公元前2000年的年表，在伊拉克北部和南部，叙利亚和土耳其，是不同的;然而，进一步的考虑，这种整合还需要。进一步，我们设想一个计划，出版一份报告，其中包括专题讨论会上发言者的专著，这项研究的最新成果等。

In order to establish a firm Mesopotamian chronolgy of the 2nd millennium B.C., based on archaeological evidence which was actually derived from stratigraphic excavations, we held the first and second meetings in Munich (1987-1988). and the third meeting in Tokyo (1989).In the first meeting, 1987, we examined stratigraphic evidence from Tell Jigan and Tall Hamad Aga as-Sagir, excavated by the Japanese and the German Expedition respectively in north Iraq; consequently decided to solve many problems, first of all, in a northern Mesopotamia chronology roconstructed in the past; and had arguments for finding the best solutions of the problems in the second meeting, 1988.Besides the third meeting, we held a symposium in 1989 for integrating the chronologies of the 2nd millennium B.C.,in north and south Iraq, Syria and Turkey that are various; however, further consideration is yet requried for this integration.For the further, we envisage a plan to publish a report containing monographs of speakers in the symposium, the up-to-date outcome of this research, etc.
