The cult of Nippur in the Ur III period
This course examines the organization of the cult in Nippur in the Ur III period (2112-2004 BC). Using written and archaeological sources, we examine which gods were worshipped in which temples, which sacrifices they received and how the city's cult calendar was organized.
