Description
Die babylonisch-assyrische Morphoskopie. By BARBARA BOCK. Vienna: INSTITUT FUR ORIENTALISTIK DER UNIVERSITAT WIEN, 2000. Pp. 348, plates. OS 1280 (paper). The book under review is a study of what are usually referred to as physiognomic omens, that is, omens drawn from the appearance of ostensibly normal healthy men and women. It consists of a transliteration and translation of the extant omens and six introductory chapters of discussion and synthesis (plus indices, a bibliography, and text copies).
