    In the mid-3rd millennium BCE an essential phenomenon can be identified, represented by a spread of cuneiform writing from its Mesopotamian homeland to different regions of ancient Near East (or Western Asia), and the use of cuneiform writing will last from the third millennium till the first years of the Common Era. This vast geographical area, often defined “Greater Mesopotamia” to highlight the influence of the “land between the rivers,” includes Iran, Syria and the Levant, and Anatolia. This series of lectures seeks to investigate the textual approaches applied to the study of ancient Near East covering different geographical areas and periods. With the participation of different scholars, these lectures will show different approaches to the written documentation to reconstruct Western Asia culture and history. The lectures take place on 6 Oct, 13 Oct, 20 Oct, 27 Oct, 3 Nov, 10 Nov, 17 Nov, and 24 Nov 2023.
