The City of Ebla: A Complete Bibliography of Its Archaeological and Textual Remains

by Erica Scarpa

About this book

Erica Scarpa gathers more than 2,600 references to research on Ebla, the ancient Syrian city at Tell Mardikh. The bibliography brings together archaeological, historical and philological publications, including studies of the royal archives and the city's written records.

An extended introduction explains the bibliography's scope, arrangement and indexing conventions, and surveys earlier reference works. Entries are ordered by author and year, with numbered cross-references and an authors index. Published in 2017, the volume is a research tool for following the literature on Ebla from the earliest excavation reports through the scholarship available when it was compiled.
