Assyrian Dictionary of the Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago: Volume 1, A, Part 1 (Assyrian Dictionary, 1, A.1)

by Martha T Roth

The Chicago Assyrian Dictionary was conceived to provide more than lexical information alone, more than a one-to-one equivalent between Akkadian and English words. By presenting each word in a meaningful context, often with a full and idiomatic translation, it recreates the cultural milieu and in many ways assumes the function of an encyclopedia.
