Thanks a million, Kansuke, and I am going to check the links at work in my first break. Have to go and see my niece and nephew first!
Now, Eisenbrauns is also excellent and delivers books everywhere in the world. I always check on them before going to Amazon. Eisenbrauns is in www.eisenbrauns.com
Plus by Eisenbrauns over Amazon: they have foreign language books in their stock. I was looking for a Bottéro and Kramer classic and could not find it in Amazon, but Eisenbrauns had it.

Re: Book Stores
yesterday the board system started its own life on my pc so I had to mail the links to the webmaster.
I bought Huehnergard at Eisenbraun, Caplice and Black at van Leest in Leyden and I'll buy Labat's Manuel d'Epigraphie Akkadienne at Amazon.fr.
I'm still trying to get my hand on Von Sodens books but they are ...eh..expensive (3 Vol. around 400 US $..). It's getting a hobby for me to buy interesting books at dump prices so if a find something I'll post it here...
I'll leave you with a nice quote:
'Iraq..I've been there last fall, well that's a nice thing about a police state..you don't run into troubles..they keep a good eye on you..'
Re: Book Stores
Kansuke, I guess we all in the board go almost broke with getting Meso books. or ? hmmmm
You got humor too. Great quote! I guess all Mesopotamians in the soul I met are naturally... energetic and fun! Let´s face it, otherwise HOW on the Heights Above and Depths Below could we be real Mesopotamians??? Only the Strong see beyond the bad press we had ... and kept going doing the Work!!! (drums... beginning acords of 2001 - A space odissey in the background *chuckles)
And please let us know of book bargains... already curious about von Soden´s but snif... US$400 is a bit too much for me as well...
