Content
The eLibrary basically collects books, papers, dissertations, lectures, posters, reports, communications, exhibits, papers on media, multimedia, and other digital material related to the ancient archaeological site of Urkesh/Tell Mozan, mainly produced by members of the Mozan team, even if not exclusively.
In fact, sections of the present website are devoted to display bibliographical entries which are related to Urkesh even if not authored by members of the Mozan team.
Further, another section is dedicated to useful bibliography not directly related to Urkesh (but seldom quoting it under many aspects) but of general interest about archaeology, anthropology, religion, history, philosophy, social sciences, literature and many other disciplines involving topics of interest for a deeper understanding of the history and archaeology of the Ancient Near East as a whole and coherent field of study.
The eLibrary also offers some excursuses, mostly dealing with archaeology and different approaches to archaeological publication and fruition, which invite the reader to reach a deeper understanding of the topics covered by the bibliography entered in this website.
A specific section of the eLibrary focuses on major themes regarding pivotal aspects of the work at Tell Mozan.
Moreover, the website is also corredated with a section of indices helping the reader in easily finding information according to differet parameters of enquiry.
Last, as far as possible, each bibliographical entry (even if not all of them) is provided with an abstract which expands the information already given in the short summary.
