A New Source for The Great Star List, Its Ancient Name, and Issues for Further Study

At present, a composite transliteration and translation, with a list of sources, is available in Ulla Koch-Westenholz's book Mesopotamian Astrology, pp. 187-205. 2 An earlier 1959- 60 study of the text by Ernst Weidner (“Ein astrologischer Sammeltext aus der Sargonidenzeit,” AfO [1959-60], 105-13) offers editions and discussion of many sections of the text; this being an improvement on Weidner’s earlier work in Weidner Handbuch 6-22, dating way back to 1915.
