Cuneiform Written Artifacts and Missing Evidence in the Study of the Ancient Near East

"While spectacular new discoveries can reveal previously unknown aspects of ancient cultures, they also highlight all that has been lost. Successive discoveries, from Babylon to Mari and Ebla, have revealed that Mesopotamian history is not singular, but multiple; each site and period has its own history. Such new evidence must be treated with caution and with an awareness of its incomplete nature and the risks of overinterpretation."
