Excerpt from Notes on Some Officials of the Sargonid Period: Part of a Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Literature in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Department of Semitics)
It is not to be expected that any exhaustive treatment of this subject can be achieved for years to come. C. H. W. Johns, in his Assyrian Deeds and Documents, has shown us one field from which much information may be derived, and has done excellent pioneer work in Assyrian official antiquities. It is the present purpose to render more available for the general student the rich material in R. F. Harper's Assyrian and Babylonian Letters. The accompanying index is intended to give a list of all the various officials, tradesmen, and men of sacred and learned pro fessions, that are mentioned in the eight volumes of letters now published. It will be followed by excursus upon different functionaries.
