Unlike works inherited from Greek or Roman Antiquity, writings from Mesopotamian civilization all come from excavations. Assyriologists work with clay tablets engraved with cuneiform characters.

The task is immense, and requires a multidisciplinary approach combining archaeology, epigraphy, philology, and history.
