Endnote 1 – The Raw Material

Ebla: un impero immortalato dall ’argilla (Milan: Arnoldo Mondadori Editore, 1979). The book contains exactly seven photographs of tablets limited to one side of the tablet only. Aside from those already published elsewhere. I can be certain of only seven new texts provided in full transliteration, but many more in the book are clearly excerpts, some of them extensive.
