Latest Links on Kyleinschriften

The repository of resources here on Kyleinschriften continues to grow. Here's a sampling of some of the latest:

CAMEL
"The center for Ancient Middle Eastern Landscapes (CAMEL) is dedicated to facilitating the work and the interests of individuals in this critical area of the world by providing access to and examining an expanding archive of contemporary and historical spatial data pertaining to both the ancient and modern Middle East."

Cuneiform Bibliography
Operated by the University of Tubingen (so, yes, it's in German), this site contains thousands of works dedicated to cuneiform studies. The bibliography is organized by year (present to 1939), and alphabetized within each year.

Resources on Science and Christian Faith
"We have prepared mini-courses on a variety of faith and science topics using resources from our journal, Perspectives on Science and Christian Faith (formally Journal of the American Scientific Affiliation) and from presentations from our annual meetings. Click on one of the categories below to find readings, audio recordings, and videos that have been selected from our collection to introduce you to a particular topic. We encourage you to proceed through the collection in the order presented and write answers to the study questions in a personal journal. These study questions can also be used in a conversation with another person or in a discussion in a small group. Use the search form to find faith/science topics and authors that may interest you."

Septuagint Online
"NETS is a new translation of the Greek Jewish Scriptures, entitled A New English Translation of the Septuagint and the Other Greek Translations Traditionally Included Under that Title (and abbreviated as NETS). This project is being carried out under the ægis of The International Organization for Septuagint and Cognate Studies (IOSCS). The translators are specialists in Septuagint studies. Their translations follow rigorous procedures established by the editors. Oxford University Press publishes the translation. An accompanying commentary series is also planned."
