T. E. Kelley and Raleigh Heth “This Student’s Vocabulary offers a well-structured approach to learning and memorizing the vocabulary used in Assyrian royal inscriptions. Since it is organized according the frequency of attestations for each word, students will quickly make progress in their ability to read and understand texts from this fascinating corpus—and therefore will soon start enjoying their reading. And since the most frequently used words are also frequent in other corpora, this Student’s Vocabulary also facilitates the approach to other Akkadian corpora as well and consequently will prove helpful for any student of Akkadian.”
—Frauke Weiershäuser, coauthor of The Royal Inscriptions of Nabopolassar (625-605 BC) and Nebuchadnezzar II (604-562 BC), Kings of Babylon, Part 1
