Translation of "Assyriology" in German

From 1930 onward, Falkenstein taught as a professor of Assyriology at the Göttingen University.

There he soon moved to Oriental Studies with a focus on Assyriology under Friedrich Delitzsch.

Assyriology is a relatively young subject.

Daniel Schwemer studied Catholic theology, Assyriology and the philology of Asia Minor in Würzburg and Tübingen.

There he continued his Hittite studies and took up Assyriology, studying under Johannes Friedrich and Benno Landsberger and earning a doctorate.

Maul studied Assyriology, Near Eastern Archaeology and Egyptology at the Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, where he received his doctorate by Rykle Borger in 1987.

In early life, he paid considerable attention to ancient Oriental history, Assyriology, and Egyptology, in which subjects he was a present private docent at the University of Budapest.

Requirements and prerequisites In a relatively short space of time, main-course students of Assyriology need to acquire the essentials of at least three ancient Oriental languages (Akkadian, Sumerian, Hittite) and learn cuneiform in its various guises (subsidiary students learn Akkadian only).

It can not be said that this view of Abraham has yet to be confirmed in the field of assyriology or archæology, although it is possible that these developments have made the design more intelligible than it has been.

The HCCH is affiliated with four university Studies of the Ancient World collections: the Collection of Casts and Classical Antiquities (supervised by the Institute for Classical Archaeology), the Egyptian Collection (supervised by the Institute for Egyptology), the Numismatic Collection (supervised by the Department of Ancient History and Epigraphy) and the Uruk Warka Collection (on permanent loan from the German Archaeological Institute and supervised by the Institute of Assyriology).

The cultures of Europe and the Middle East in antiquity represent the joint research focus of the Ancient Civilisations group, teaching classical studies (Greek and Latin), ancient history, papyrology, Egyptology, classical archaeology, Christian archaeology, prehistory and protohistory, Middle Eastern archaeology, and Assyriology (Sumerian and Akkadian studies).

Though after the Second World War the abundance of the material to be dealt with prompted Near Eastern Archaeology and Assyriology to split up into two (formally) independent disciplines, they still remain in close association with one another.

Assyriology (also known as Ancient Near Eastern Philology) is devoted to the study of the high cultures of the ancient Near East, investigating their languages, history, religion, science, literature, economy, societies and legal systems.

For both these subjects, a Semitic language is of central significance, Akkadian for Assyriology and Arabic for Islamic Studies.

At its recent assembly at the Pergamon Museum in Berlin, the German Orient Society (Deutsche Orient-Gesellschaft) elected Heidelberg professor of Assyriology Dr. Markus Hilgert as its next president.

If he were to limit himself to doing this, then theology, or at any rate the interpretation of the Bible, would be something similar to Egyptology or Assyriology, or any other specialization.

Architecture as a manifestation of specific views of the world and as an organizational framework for ritual activity are central research interests of representatives of the disciplines of Egyptology, Classical Archaeology, Assyriology, Near Eastern Archaeology and East Asian History of Art at the universities of Heidelberg and Freiburg.

Although Assyriology is primarily concerned with written records, a halfway profound understanding of the cultures of the ancient Orient is only achievable if the information in those texts is combined with the information handed down to us by the material relics of these cultures.
