The Etemmu Within - Episode 3B: The Black Oasis

This is a curious novel. First in a trilogy, though this story seemed self contained enough. It's very descriptive. It opens by telling you what the novel it about. Then it tells you what the opening situation is, and introduces the cast of character ...more

Daphne Hi Chris. I thought you might be interested in this:

Daphne Hi Chris.
Messaging you again about a SASA online event. About building a community of Ancient Studies professionals who are not members of an academic institution (because the latter don't consider us to be scholars). SASA= Save Ancient Studies Alliance. See "events" at saveancientstudies-dot-org

Daphne Hi Chris.
Posting a link to a talk I found most interesting. Reading into cuneiform archives from Lagash to discover what responsibilities/powers the queens/king's wives had. The original is on the website of SASA (Save Ancient Studies), but I post the youtube link so you don't need to sign in. I can't post the complete url, but go to youtube and add the following. The conference starts at 1:04:30. Daphne

Apocryphal Chris Thanks Daphne - this is right up my Mom's alley, actually, so the timing is perfect as I'm in gift mode!

Daphne Hi Chris. I had a quick look at your bookshelf to see if you had read anything by N. Holmes. She's the author of a series of mysteries featuring the historical personage Lord Hani (ancient Egypt). She has also written some adventure stories set in... ancient Mesopotamia ! I'm definitely going to give her a try :-)


Apocryphal Chris Cheers, Daphne!


Daphne Hello, Chris. I just discovered that you have co-authored a book, Mythic Babylon. Congratulations ! Raising a toast to you.
