We visited universities in Al-Qadisiyah, Babylon, Baghdad & Mosul, expecting ~50 participants but met more than 185 archaeologists and Assyriologists! Grateful for the warm welcome, thoughtful discussions, and strong interest in collaboration.

Ah! One of the two only products from Israel I have ever owned. The other one was a falafel maker which I had no idea was from there when I bought it. The Soda Stream is in the Garage.

The NINO collection is leading in the right way exactly in the terms you describe, where the copyrights have expired as the original author is long gone.

This technology is not widely used now, but as more experiments are run using various approaches, I am hopeful that we will develop tools that can accurately recognise cuneiform signs on clay tablets.
