Proper nouns in ETCSL (i d utu ud ne-a-a kur dumu ki-en-gi-ra nu-zu-ba) Introduction The Electronic Text Corpus of Sumerian Literature is based at the University of Oxford. Its aim is to make accessible, via the World Wide Web, over 400 literary works composed in the Sumerian language in ancient Mesopotamia (modern Iraq) during the late third and early second millennia BCE. The corpus comprises Sumerian text, English prose translation and bibliographical information for each composition. This second edition of the corpus will evolve, incorporating improvements, corrections and standardisation of the material. The first edition remains accessible, stable and unchanged. King Shulgi (c. 2100 BCE) on the future of Sumerian literature: "Now, I swear by the sun god Utu on this very day and my younger brothers shall be witness of it in foreign lands where the sons of Sumer are not known, where people do not have the use of paved roads, where they have no access to the written word that I, the firstborn son, am a fashioner of words, a composer of songs, a composer of words, and that they will recite my songs as heavenly writings, and that they will bow down before my words..."

Special Collections Monthly Focus: Brown Seniors 'Crack' Cuneiform Tablets The Library holds 27 cuneiform tablets and cones from ancient mesopotamia, none of which had been translated until two seniors in Visiting Professor Alice Slotsky's class, ancient Scientific Writings Akkadian, undertook an elective project to decipher two of the tablets. http://www.brown.edu/Facilities/University_Library/libs/hay/focus/cuneiform/

Focus on the John Hay Library, Number 7 Featuring new, interesting, and unusual items from the Library's Special Collections Brown Seniors 'Crack' Cuneiform Tablets Visitors to the John Hay Library sometimes ask, "How old is your oldest book?" Answer: 4,000+ years old. The Library holds 27 cuneiform tablets and cones from ancient Mesopotamia, none of which had been translated until two seniors in Visiting Professor Alice Slotsky's class, Ancient Scientific Writings: Akkadian, undertook an elective project to decipher two of the tablets. Their transliterations and translations are published below ABOUT CUNEIFORM WRITING. Cuneiform writing was, for close to 3000 years, one of the principal media of literate civilization. This almost matches the length of time for which our own alphabet has been in common use. Brown's collection of ancient Mesopotamian clay tablets covers this long span of time and includes both Sumerian and Akkadian examples, both of which were written in cuneiform script. The Sumerians and Akkadians lived harmoniously in the same geographical area, the region between the Euphrates and Tigris Rivers, but they spoke two dramatically different and unrelated languages. Sumerian was the language of a people who migrated to southern Mesopotamia in the late 4th millennium BC. To this day, we do not know to which language family it belongs. Akkadian, on the other hand, is the earliest attested member of the Semitic family of languages. It was written and spoken by both the Assyrians and Babylonians. The writing was invented by the Sumerians and subsequently adapted for Akkadian and other languages, including Elamite in Iran and Hittite in Anatolia.

To adapt one of Ben Johnson's sayings: "To be tired of Iraq is to be tired of life". Here one finds the first traces of agriculture and the trading that ensued, the beginnings of organized religion, the development of mathematical methods, the flowering of the arts and architecture. Here is found the first form of writing and the beginnings of literature (including the first story of creation and the flood) which made possible the pursuit of knowledge and economic order within an organized government. Later civilizations were all influenced by Mesopotamia.
