The Assyrian Dictionary

The final manuscript of the T volume was sent to J. J. Augustin in April 1991, and we continued to receive galleys from them through 1998. When it became clear that Augustin was unable to complete publication of the volume, the manuscript was retrieved and sent for composition to Eisenbrauns, Inc., in 2001. The editorial decision was made at that time that the manuscript was to be considered closed as of 1995; no citations or references published after that date have been included.
Several CAD volumes are in production simultaneously, and work on the manuscript of the T volume began in 1984. Drafts of articles were written by Richard I. Caplice, Dietz Otto Edzard, Brigitte Groneberg, Hermann Hunger, Burkhart Kienast, Marie-Christine Ludwig, Simo Parpola, Erica Reiner, Johannes M. Renger, Martha T. Roth, Wilfred van Soldt, Matthew W. Stolper, and Frans Wiggermann.
Erica Reiner, assisted by Martha T. Roth, edited the ̃nal manuscript. Comprehensive citation checking began in 1989 and was accomplished by in-house scholars Robert D. Biggs, Gertrud Farber, Erica Reiner, Martha T. Roth, and Matthew W. Stolper, and by visiting scholars Burkhart Kienast and Wilfred van Soldt. Further work on the volume was contributed by Erekle Astakhishvili, Timothy J. Collins, Remigius Jas, Michael Kozuh, Jennie Myers, and David Testen. The complete manuscript was read for accuracy by Robert D. Biggs, John A. Brinkman, Miguel Civil, Erica Reiner, Martha T. Roth, and Matthew W. Stolper, and by our colleagues Wilfred G. Lambert (University of Birmingham), Simo Parpola (University of Helsinki), and Klaas R. Veenhof (University of Leiden).
The T Volume appears shortly after the death of Erica Reiner, who died on December 31, 2005. We dedicate this volume to her memory.
