State Archives of Assyria
State Archives of Assyria (abbreviated SAA ) is currently a 19-volume series that makes Neo-Assyrian texts, especially from Nineveh , accessible in a critical edition and in English translation. In contrast to the first publication of these texts from the turn of the 19th to the 20th century, they are arranged in the State Archives of Assyria according to their genre and provided with modern interpretation. The work is published by the Neo-Assyrian Text Corpus Project at the University of Helsinki .
