Had a wonderful time studying the archive at the University of Chicago Oriental Institute – thank you to everyone I worked with during my stay the previous week, and sincere thanks to the Oriental Institute for awarding me the Oriental Institute Collections Research Grant 2019-2020!
The Oriental Institute archive really is a treasure trove – lots of material from the Diyala Expedition and the associated publications there that hasn’t been digitized and has been practically unseen since the 60’s, including plans with elevations which I needed for my PhD dissertation.
Also thank you to everyone who attended my talk on Friday, February 21st. I am happy to share my powerpoint with anyone who is interested, feel free to contact at arthur.stefanski@mail.utoronto.
