Description
Memoir On Cuneiform Inscription is a historical book written by Henry Creswicke Rawlinson in 1849. The book is a detailed account of Rawlinson's decipherment of the ancient cuneiform script, which was used in Mesopotamia thousands of years ago. Rawlinson, a British diplomat and scholar, spent many years studying the inscriptions found on ancient monuments and tablets, and he eventually succeeded in deciphering the script.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of cuneiform inscription. Rawlinson explains the history of the script, its development over time, and the various languages that were written in cuneiform. He also describes the techniques he used to decipher the script, including his use of bilingual inscriptions and his knowledge of the Persian language.Throughout the book, Rawlinson provides numerous examples of cuneiform inscriptions and translates them into English. He also discusses the significance of these inscriptions, which provide valuable insights into the ancient cultures and civilizations of Mesopotamia. The book is illustrated with numerous drawings and photographs of cuneiform tablets and monuments, making it an invaluable resource for scholars and anyone interested in the history of the Middle East.Overall, Memoir On Cuneiform Inscription is a fascinating and informative book that sheds light on one of the most important scripts in human history. Rawlinson's insights and discoveries have had a profound impact on our understanding of ancient Mesopotamia, and this book remains an important work in the field of archaeology and linguistics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
